Cue the music, peeps. After all, Tucker by Gaby Basora, Charlotte Gainsbourg and Palm Springs...these are a few of my favorite things. NOWNESS.com aims for the hat trick, marrying the three in an absolute BEAUTY of a short film, starring models Annie Morton and Liberty Ross along with actor Donovan Leitch. Filmed in the Tucker designer’s grandmother’s home and referencing the 60s Hollywood spirit of Steve McQueen and Marilyn Monroe, the film spotlights Tucker's delicious Summer '11 collection - view it below, and shop online here!

OOTD: A Short Story
It's been a long time since I've embraced a SHORT, y'all. But give a girl a seemingly never-ending series of Physique 57 classes, and a bottle of self-tanner, and she can face even the BRIEFEST of inseams - for work or for play.
Take, for example, these perfectly lovely Washed Silk Cargo Shorts from Talbots. Thanks to the more formal fabrication and polished details (exactly what I'd expect from Talbots, though they've also REALLY upped the ante on trend-right pieces in recent seasons), they're the PERFECT substitute for my go-to denim on hot and steamy days. My only complaint - and it's a minor one at that - is that silk wrinkles entirely too easily, as seen above. Which reminds me...does anyone know any dewrinkling secrets short of keeping a steamer in my cube? If so, I'm ALL EARS.
Head to toe, here's how I wore them this week:
- Tom Ford Anouk Sunglasses
- Tucker by Gaby Basora Silk Blouse (other patterns here)
- Various Bangles, including Kenneth Jay Lane, Disaya and Alexis Bittar
- Talbots Washed Silk Cargo Shorts (gift)
- Loeffler Randall Stacked Peep Toe Platform (no longer available)
Have you introduced shorts to your Summer '11 work wardrobe? Do tell in the comments.
