Aww Jan's thread is so small! Time to beef it up!

I think January has a great deal of style both onscreen and off so lets talk about it shall we! I think this glittering dress looks great on her and it's such a hard look to pull off - the clutch is darling too.

Love this little vintagey dress on her - horizontal lace is not something everyone can pull off but Jan's figure pulls it off so well.

This is my absolute favorite girls of Mad Men picture. I think Christina stands out more in this photograph but January always looks good. I wish there were more!

She really seems to favor loads of little cocktail dreses. I think I would prefer this dress if the color were different, the cool blue is pretty but I think overall it would look nicer in a bright red or even burgundy. I love blondes in red - something about it just works.

Her smile is contagious

January is profiled in this month's Vogue, I think she comes across very well. She's got very appealing taste, it goes into a bit more about her life and her choices. I always love any article where the focus is on buying presents so this was a treat
