Prps...The Hottest and Coolest Jeans!

Prps.....the funkiest and best looking jeans for Fall!The girls at A Few Goody Gumdrops love their Prps jeans! My favorite is the Boyfriend.They fall perfectly. As we dished in our previous post, these oh-so-funky jeans don't stretch like our "current" jeans and are minimally ripped with a few paint splatters. These Japanese denim jeans are a must-have and oh-so-comfy. Pair with a great belt, your weekender bag, platform ankle booties or distressed ankle Frye boots. Check out the Daytona Boot Cut Jean in Thunder Wash and the Dart Skinny Jean in Rusty River. You'll love all the different washes! Shop the Must-Have Jeans on Singer22 at A Few Goody Gumdrops

Our Friends at Thefind.com Love Trina Turk

Trina Turk's Palm Beach Style from Our Friends at Thefind.com Palm Springs is a jewel in the desert and boats iconic mid-century architecture, vintage furniture shops, and many luxe boutique hotels all touting the chic desert lifestyle. With all of the colors and inspirational sights in Palm Springs there is one name that comes to mind when you think of colorful vintage inspired fashion in Palm Springs, Trina Turk. Trina's success reaches far and wide these days with shops across California as well as New York and a pop-up store this summer in East Hampton. Inspired by the eclectic mix of cultures, landscapes and architecture of Los Angeles, Trina's vision is to create wearable and optimistic sportswear known for the excellent fit of pants and signature modernist prints.
Trina took a few minutes from her busy day to share her favorite hot spots in Palm Springs (and beyond) with us.
Favorite locals spot to get a bite to eat
For lunch: Norma’s at the Parker Palm Springs (designed by Jonathan Adler), El Mirasol
For dinner: Le Valluris or BBQ at home
For drinks: The groovy lobby of the Parker Palm Springs, Melvyn’s or cocktails at home by the pool
Favorite vintage store vintage shops (clothing and furniture -- besides her own store of course!). Bon Vivant, The Galleria, Modern Way, Studio 111—all of these are vintage home furnishings and accessories
Favorite spa getaway
Post Ranch Inn, Big Sur, CA or Ten Thousand Waves outside of Santa Fe, New Mexico
Best place for getting a glimpse of a celebrity
The Mercer Hotel in Soho.
Most inspirational place for Trina Turk's recent collection in Palm Springs or anywhere in the world. John Lautner’s Elrod house
Right now you can take a sneak peek at Trina's fall 09 collection below. The sportswear and dress collection consists of a palette of neutrals in black, grey and beige mixed with bold colorful prints and touches of vintage tailoring. We especially love Trina's take on short and 3/4 sleeve coats. Trina consistently features these types of jackets and they are ideal for daytime office wear. Some of the pieces are available now and others will be available in August and September.

Sophisticated Playwear-Short Romper Jumpsuits from thefind.com The short romper jumpsuit has grown up. No longer just for playdates at the playground. Now available in sophisticated styles and sizes for grown ups, the summer romper is one way to keep cool and maintain your style credibility.

We spotted a few short romper jumpsuits and are coveting them as our go-to summer uniform. Haven's 'Amy' silk print romper embraces a subtle ethnic tonal print with a blouse effect and tie waist. Pair it with an eye-catching pair of beaded wedge espadrilles. Emblazoned with the signature zigzag pattern the Missoni Fortaleza woven jumpsuit indulges our search for "La Dolce Vita" with a spaghetti strap tank and flowing shorts. The Missoni jumpsuit is perfect for a bikini cover up or night on the town. Twin the Missoni jumpsuit is a pair of Louboutin light blue ankle tie espadrilles. Elizabeth and James' black silk summer romper will be the urban girl's best friend. A decidedly daring jumper for the perfect downtown look. Don a pair of black caged sandals or beach-ify the look with a pair of black ankle tie espadrilles.

Outfit Inspired by Laudree French Macaroons
In honor of Bastille Day which takes place on July 14th we take inspiration from one of our favorite Parisian destinations, Ladurée the patisserie made famous by its delectable macaroons. The luscious crisp little cakes are filled with smooth creamy centers with flavors like jasmin mango, bergamot, caramel with salted butter, red fruits and orange blossom just to name a few. The colors of these little treats are worthy of a trend story touting summer's pastel infused fashions, many of which are marked down to make room for fall arrivals. So indulge in a sweet treat whether it be a macaroon Elizabeth and James blouse which you can pair with white jeans. Or how about these pretty Maloles flats, they'll look charming with a flittery silk summer dress. Even everyday basics like skinny jeans or classic aviators will look perfectly lovely for a quick jaunt to the patisserie for a box of what else? Pastel colored macaroons!

Look Tres Chic with Tres Sleek!

Trying to squeeze into that Herve Leger or Azzedine Alaia or Proenza Schouler bandage dress or skirt? Want to look like a stylish celeb without doing ten sets of crunches everyday? Then you'll definitely want to own these two fabulous slimming pieces from the Tres Sleek Collection.

We are inviting our readers to participate in an amazing and shapley GIVEAWAY! We are so excited! One lucky reader will recieve a Tres Sleek Shrink and a Tank -Teeni.(tank-teeni can be viewed on the website) These two slimming pieces from the Tres Sleek Collection will give you so much more curve and control. Please visit the Tres Sleek Collection online.

The Tank-TeeniTM is a new line of tank tops and tee shirts with built-in compression for the core region. Unlike current shapewear tops that cling visibly like unflattering spandex, the Tank-TeeniTM has a discreet design that conceals a compression panel beneath our fitted tank top or tee shirt design. On top of that, our compression component starts beneath the bust and extends to just below the torso, allowing women to choose their own bra without the hassle of an awkward, ill-fitting built-in shelf bra. All sizes are available in a delicious array of colors and patterns, with long-sleeved tees available for the upcoming Fall season! In the Tank-teeniTM, you'll look and feel noticeably trimmer and sleeker, but onlookers will never know your secret and we won't tell them!

Compress yourself with the new and improved, Shrinx TM.We've extended in two directions the traditional waist nipper and through this new design have created an all in one slimming garment that addresses common female trouble spots. Lightweight and compressive nylon/spandex blend smoothes from underneath breast to upper thigh Eliminates back bulge No ill fitting bra shelf to deal with No clasps or painful hooks Wear under tops, dresses, pants, or skirts and it doesn't roll up or down. Comes in black and nude.Tres Sleek Collection
