deadly curves.

Christina Hendricks was named the best looking woman by Esquire.

I have to say, I love this.  It is so refreshing to see a woman being praised for her body, and she actually has one!  She says that she no size 2 or 4 so designers don't send her dresses, but she is happy with the way she looks... and she is beautiful.  It's so much more realistic.  She worked as a model and had a suspiciously skinny figure, but was still advised to lose weight.  Now, with much more weight on her bones, she's finally getting the positive attention and praise she deserves.  If you're unfamiliar with her, she plays the sultry and eccentric Joan on Mad Men, which became one of my favorite shows in the last couple of years.  It is set in the '60s at a Madison Avenue ad agency--so obviously, it has everything I love: vintage style, New York, advertising, beautiful people, amazing colors (the show really is great, even if you're not into advertising; it has all the drama that you want!)  She's my favorite character, probably because she's very Marilyn-esque :)

Season 4 of Mad Men premieres in July!
