Maria Del Russo — Sun, 28 Apr 2013 03:43:10 PDT

When in doubt, stick to a classic. That's what three leading ladies did this week, when they opted for a flicked-out cat-eye liner look. Mad Men star Jessica Paré paired hers with a sheer pink lip, while model Nicole Trunfio showed hers off with a twisted topknot at the Tribeca Film Festival. And Bryce Dallas Howard went the vintage route, swiping on a red lip to complement her liner. All three looks are winners, but whose made you meow?

During her chat with Jimmy, Jessica discussed her now-infamous song from the show's fifth season premiere, "Zou Bisou Bisou." She revealed that her mom has taken to singing the tune and reenacting the scene at various dinner parties, much to the embarrassment of Jessica.

Maria Mercedes Lara — Wed, 24 Apr 2013 09:20:16 PDT

The stars of Mad Men got together to discuss their hit show at The Paley Center for Media in NYC last night. Jon Hamm, January Jones, Vincent Kartheiser, and the rest of the cast sat down with show creator Matthew Weiner and moderator Brian Williams for a candid discussion about the new season. During the beginning of the panel, Brian joked with Matthew about an inaccuracy from Sunday's episode - don't forget to check out our Mad Men recap - where Joan, played by Christina Hendricks, said that she had made a reservation at Le Cirque, a real-life NYC restaurant that didn't exist in 1968, when the episode took place. Matthew laughed, "Christina Hendricks isn't here, but she ad-libbed that part." Brian also asked about another un-'60s moment when Don ordered an "Old Spanish," a made-up drink from 30 Rock, which Jon, Brian, and John Slattery have all guest-starred on. Matthew and Jon confirmed that the drink order was purely a nod to Tina Fey's former show. The event was the second big night out for the group this week after they attended a BAFTA celebration of Mad Men in the Big Apple on Monday. Stay tuned for our interview with the cast from the Paley Center panel!

Hannah Weil — Tue, 23 Apr 2013 08:14:21 PDT

Last night's BAFTA NY celebration for Mad Men was the perfect excuse for the series's leading ladies to show off their offscreen style. January Jones, Jessica Paré, and Christina Hendricks proved that they're just as chic when they're not in costume - though some of their cocktail attire borrowed from their characters' retro-inspired glamour. In a formfitting emerald-green L'Wren Scott sheath with gold-beaded trim, Jessica channeled Megan Draper's '60s-era chic. Meanwhile, January was a far cry from her Betty Francis persona in a moto-style leather jacket by Versace, a printed miniskirt, and classic black pumps. As for Christina, the actress opted for a classic-feeling LBD (a staple in any fashion era), complete with a sheer inset at the neckline and finished with a pair of understated heels. That's the rundown on who wore what, now it's time to cast your vote: which Mad Men star was last night's best dressed?
