We can’t get enough of this good thing - Banana Republic has announced yet another instalment of its popular Mad Men collection designed in collaboration with Emmy® Award-winning Mad Men costume designer Janie Bryant. The newly released campaign shots feature Coco Rocha looking ever so cool as Megan Draper. Love! This time around, the over 50-piece collection has evolved from the Camelot era of the early ‘60s to the mod vibe of the late ‘60s, with bold prints, bright pops of colour and new silhouettes - think shorter hemlines, keyhole details, cute capris and mirrored heels. Men can channel Don Draper in bold plaids, charming stripes and sophisticated, workplace-ready suits. The upshot? Get ready to fall mod-ly in love.  The collection hits select stores and BananaRepublic.ca on Feb 27th.

P.S - If you're a fan of diffusion lines, check out my article at iVillage.ca this week with the best designer collaborations of Spring '13 including DVF for GapKids, Oscar de la Renta for The Outnet and Preen & Pink Tartan for ALDO RISE

Following Banana Republic's first ‘Mad Men’ collection last August, the store has announced a second spring capsule collection, sure to help us achieve that 1960’s polish and panache of the hit show.

Designed by Banana Republic in collaboration with Emmy® Award-winning Mad Men Costume Designer Janie Bryant, the collection features over 40 pieces of apparel and jewelry for men and women and embodies the style tenets of the time, including polished sportswear and chic essentials. 

The collection hits stores across Canada March 1st, but you can get a sneak peek tomorrow (that's Wed Feb. 29th) at Yorkdale Mall from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m.  Get chic 60s style with a ‘How to Get Mad Style’ presentation (6:30 p.m.) from noted style expert Tammy Palmer, makeup artist demos of the perfect red lip and winged eye liner, retro cocktails, appetizers and more.  Also, with any $150 purchase, you'll receive a Season 4 Mad Men boxed set and $20 Yorkdale GC.  We all know that mixing cocktails and shopping is never a good idea, but sometimes it's just so fun to be bad...
