If Betty Draper Had An Office…

I am not much of a TV buff, but since my husband and I got Netflix, game over! We now understand the whole notion of binge watching, which I can’t decide if this is a good or bad thing. Our first experience with this was Mad Men. I find this series so intriguing. It transports us into a time that we didn’t experience and can barely comprehend. The series takes place in the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s and candidly portrays the female role, the way business was conducted, and how excessive drinking and smoking use to be. We got really caught up in the characters, clothing and of course, the decor. So when Chairish asked me to do a post for their Mad Men series, I was delighted! And, in case you didn’t know, Chairish is a great resource for Mid-Century Modern furniture. You can find their entire line, HERE.

I decided I wanted to put Betty Draper into an office environment with the rest of the characters. I wondered, what if Betty was more like Joan and she had her own place to work? What would that look like?  I imagine it to be uber feminine, well put together and pretty, just like Betty. It would be striking in appearance but underneath it all, it would be womanly and soft. And of course, have an astray and bar just like the rest of them.
