Her effortlessly glamourous style combined with a strong, allusive personality makes Joan quite possibly the most amazing Mad Men's creation. Although, sadly, not all of us are blessed with Joan's curves, her sexy yet sophisticated fashion style can be easily achieved if we stick to a few simple rules: say hello to <b>figure-hugging</b>, <b>knee-lenght pencil skirts</b>, <b>solid jewel colours</b> and the <b>immaculate flushed makeup look</b>!</span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New";">If, like me, you're mad about Mad Men's style, you're in luck as the 1950s/early 1960s fashion is making a big come back this season, which means we don't have to limit ourselves to vintage stores when trying to recreate Joan's iconic look. </span></span><br />

Lana, who described Joan as "always put together, very sassy and sexy", said that key products for creating her look are <b>eyeliner</b> and <b style="color: black;"><i><a href="http://www.maccosmetics.com/product/150/417/30-Lash/index.tmpl">strip lashes</a></i></b>. Lana also revealed the exact products she uses when putting together Joan's makeup look (yes, you guessed it -I'm planning on buying every single one of them!!;). These are: MAC's <i style="color: black;"><b><a href="http://www.makeupalley.com/product/showreview.asp/ItemId=48828/Virgin_Isle_Cream_Colour_Base_%28CCB%29/MAC/Blush">Cream Colour Base in Virgin Isle</a></b><b>, </b></i></span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><b style="color: black;"> <i><a href="http://www.maccosmetics.com/product/spp.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CAT151&PRODUCT_ID=898&QUERY=fluidline">Fluidline in Blacktrack and Rich Ground</a></i></b><span style="color: black;"><b>,</b> brown and black, and </span><b style="color: black;"><i><a href="http://www.maccosmetics.com/product/spp.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CAT154&PRODUCT_ID=363&SKU_ID=1729&QUERY=soft%20brown">Eye Shadow in Soft Brown</a></i></b><span style="color: black;"><b style="color: black;"> </b>(all these are MAC products). Lastly, Lena had a great advice on incorporating Joan's style into everyday makeup look:</span><span style="color: black;"> </span>"Replacing gloss and sheer or shimmer lipsticks with matte reds, bright pinks and corals help screate a more retro look. Instead of a powder blush try using creme in pinks and corals to create a flushed looking cheek.

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Eye-makeup for winter/fall 2010 is all about gorgeous <b>browns</b>, from <b>toffee to chocolaty shades</b> - they perfectly compliment the flawless makeup look. Warm shades add a slightly old-fashioned look to your eyes, creating this sepia tone effect.Minimalism is key so we can forget about fake lashes and tones of mascara – yay! </span> <br />

</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Last but not least, my personal favourite - beautiful, dramatic lips in rich, dark shades of red. The classic 60’s reds have been given an edgy upgrade, so next time you’re shopping for lip gloss/lipstick, make sure you check out the amazing <b>burgundy, blackberry and bordeau shades</b>. They go surprisingly well with light, pale skin, giving your lips an almost goth-like, wine-stained effect.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br />

Comments and suggestions are very welcome, so don't be shy and drop me a line :)</span><br />
