For Part 1, look here.
Her Garden Party Dress
The promo shots for Part 2 featured Joan looking sensational in this floaty pink dress. It’s very Diane von Furstenberg and very flattering with its wide scoop neckline, full-length sleeves and fitted waist.
Her SATC Look
This magenta power dress and gold coat remind me of another kickass businesswoman, Samantha Jones.
Subdued In Sludge Green
After being sexually harassed by a couple of sleazeball clients, Joan is wearing a modest, and ugly, blouse.
Her Retail Therapy Fix
Joan on a shopping spree is the stuff of my fashion fantasies. This pearl encrusted, feather trimmed evening dress is exquisite.
Of Course Joan Wears A Ballgown To Bed
You gotta love a nightie that comes with its own cape.
Her Office Barbie Look
Gorgeous, summer workwear. I’m obsessed with these shades of pink. The nude accessories keep it chic.
Yet More Glamorous Sleepwear
Costume designer, Janie Bryant, is spoiling us. This satin emerald dressing gown is fit for a queen. Or me.
Her Beautiful Blue Blouse
Joan wears quite a few pussybow necklines this season, a big trend in women’s officewear at the time.
One Of Her All Time Greatest Hits
She’s always loved Asian style and this brocade pencil dress with its Mandarin collar is just stunning. A classic bombshell look.
Experimenting With Skirt Shapes
Joan’s famous for her wiggle skirts but here she is something more flared. She keeps her waist defined by wearing the belt over the top of her shirt.
Her Mixed Print Dress
This season sees Joan really venturing out of her familiar silhouette with floaty, printed numbers like this one.
Her Matchy Matchy Suit
She looks like a flight attendant on the world’s most colour-coordinated airline.
The “I’ll Take One In Every Colour” Outfit
Joan has long been a fan of buying several versions of the same outfit in different colourways. If a look works for you, make it work harder.
Her Sassy Seventies Frock
She’s got the funk.
Her Giant Pink Dress
Another pussybow neckline. It’s a bit billowy for my taste – I prefer her in something more fitted.

J’adore this fitted, jersey dress and matching handbag. Sophisticated glamour.

Cute and casual at home in a batwing-sleeved jumper and cats eye glasses.

Her Leopard Print Loungewear
This dressing gown is fierce and I want it.

Joan is The Boss – of her own company and of this look.
