in keeping with the theme of beautiful, fashionable fictional characters whose homes i might like to decorate (despite their inarguably disagreeable dispositions), it seems only natural to include mad men's betty draper on my imaginary dream client list.
the living room within the draper abode is lovely but, like mrs. draper herself, lacking a certain personal touch.
if i were asked to introduce a little warmth to the scenario, i think these lamps could provide a soft layer of mid-level light without stealing any attention from the blonde beauty at their side,
while these pillows would inject a dose of patterned personality to the sectional without making an uncomfortably over-the-top statement.
much like the isolated lady of the house, i think the lonely side chair would most certainly appreciate a friend by its side.
and whichever of mr. draper's work associates occupied said chair could use a place to set his after-dinner cordial.
it goes without saying that a few additional avian-inspired accessories would add small pops of color, while honoring the emotionally neglected 'birdie' in an appropriately non-descript, wasp-y way.
i'm not sure how one manages to make despair look so alluring. is it the rare moment of adoration received from her dashing husband...
or the frequent indulgence in her many vices?

Another great post! For the record, Betty Draper has single-handedly rekindled my interest in daytime wine drinking. On a related note, why is it that, even as a non-smoker, smoking accessories are so cool? That ceramic lighter set would look quite handsome on my office desk, right next to the photo of my own ‘birdie.’
oh, betty draper! i think she would definitely agree that everything is better with gold. and i agree with bpd, even as a non-smoker, your smoking accessories are to die for.
Amazing! They truly would be a dream client. High style, classy taste and good to look at.
