In preparation for my upcoming trip to The Dez I wanted to make sure I was up on the Spring 2010 trends to lend some direction to my always amazing thrifty desert finds. Palm Springs is a goldmine of vintage fashion as its many residents have retired their fancy duds in favor of khakis, popped collars and sun visors. Fashion is forever cyclical and nothing brings me more joy than finding the $3 inspired original of today’s highest end designs. As I’ve previously mentioned, I never head into shopping bliss until I am armed with a list of the current must-haves. Take note of which trends you will adopt in the coming months.
From head to toe.
