A Tad Mad Men – Cocktails and Curves

A Tad Mad Men - Cocktails and Curves

Vintage clip on earrings. About 60 years old. From the 1950’s – 1960’s.

The good old days.

Beautifully made with cream and crystal clear glass bugle beads.

So if you’re a would-be Betty Draper, or maybe you just enjoy the nostalgia of vintage, and hanker after a time when drinking, smoking, misogynist bigots roamed the streets, these lovely earrings are for you.

“In May 2010, Miss Hendricks was voted “The Sexiest Woman Alive” by female readers of Esquire magazine. Two months later the size-14 actress, who plays the feisty secretary Joan Harris in Mad Men, was declared a role model by Lynne Featherstone, the UK Equalities Minister.
Criticising the “overexposure” of skinny models, which she said was causing a crisis in “body confidence” among young women, the Liberal Democrat minister declared: “Christina Hendricks is absolutely fabulous.
“We need more of these role models. There is such a sensation when there is a curvy role model. It shouldn’t be so unusual.”

Simply having a Vintage Christmas Time

Va Va Vintage Santa

Va Va Vintage Santa

Perfect glass tumblers for your Egg Nog or Mulled Wine this Chrimbo.

Lovely stocking fillers. Lots of HoHoHo! And not expensive either!

1960’s glasses, Santa on one side, and his sleigh on the other, with rather a lot of snowflakes…

 

 

It’s not fat free, or alcohol free, but it is very retro:

The best recipe for Egg Nog EVER!
