Yay or Nay: January Jones Wears Hot Pink

Posted by Alexandra C. | Monday October 29, 201284 comments

I love vintage clothing and am a known thrifter, so it shouldn't come as a surprise that Mad Men is one of my favourite shows. With so many shots of beautiful and well made vintage styles, that show is a feast for the eyes! 

One of my favourite characters is Betty, played by the gorgeous January Jones. January has impeccable style and grace so I was surprised to see her take such a wrong turn with this outfit.

It's not really a terrible ensemble, it's just so not working for her. I think Ms. Jones took a risk with this hot pink playsuit and I don't think it paid off. She went with a nod to mod peter pan collar and 60's inspired eye makeup and hair. Since you know how much I appreciate old school styles, you'd expect that I'd be all over this, but I just don't think it suits her.

The colour is too brash on her skin, the silhouette swallows up her slim frame and the makeup is a little overdone for her features. She is so naturally pretty, it totally overtakes her face. All I notice are those huge fake lashes! 

What do you think of this look? Is it a yay or a nay? Leave a comment below with your vote by November 4th and you could win!

Where are my shades?? Wow - the super neon pink her pale skin makes me feel almost blinded, and then when I dare to take a peak at her picture again, I'm confused by the slightly darker color of her hair on the top of her head. Um... I think she looks a bit too old for this ensemble - NAY!

I say nay, but not for your reasons. I like the hair and makeup, I like the colour, I just don';t like the style of what she's wearing

Nay. I love the bright colour but the cut is not that flattering on her. She could do so much better!

Nay! I like the jumpsuit, but the color is too harsh. The makeup is very clown-y and the hair is so childish.

nay i think both her makeup and outfit are too over the top!

A definite nay. Her profile looks good in this outfit, but she loses all shape face on. And its a bit wild on her skin tone for sure. She's a beautiful woman with a beautiful figure so its a shame.
