I've been watching old episodes of Mad Men lately on Netflix
and it’s making me want to go back to the basics. I’m not talking about a cigarette before
breakfast and a scotch @10am. No – I’d leave that in the 60s. I’m talking about less options.
Black Coffee – Would you like Splenda, Sweet’n low, Equal, Truvia, Stevia, Stevia in the Raw, Sugar in the Raw or granulated sugar? Cream, Whole milk, 2% milk, skim milk, almond milk, soy milk or organic non-GMO milk? It can be overwhelming. How about just a black coffee, please? I don’t have to worry about having organic
non-GMO whole milk for my coffee. Plus
it stays extra hot!
Less than 10 tv channels. Paul and I are getting rid of cable for the summer and potentially keeping it that way. I like the idea of less time in front of the TV and more time talking, reading, or repainting the kitchen cabinets (eek!).
Classic clothes. Solids, Stripes, and the occasional florals. White, black, cream, pink, and teals. Know the colors and fit that look best on you and use it to your advantage.
Get the look: below are some current and classic "Betty inspired" looks I'm loving at the moment. These would be perfect for weddings/showers this summer.
