Touches of Yellow & Chartreuse Inspiration Board

Now that the Summer weather has finally arrived here in Los Angeles (hello 90-degree temperatures!), we were inspired to create a collage around a favorite little painting by Kiki and Polly entitled "All Together" (see in full above).   The touches of yellow/mustard color in the painting were the starting point for finding other images such as the yellow Princesse Tam-Tam set and the chartreuse-colored Etam set.  All of the other pictures just seemed to fall into place!

We hope everyone's enjoying their Summer (for our readers north of the equator)!

Princesse Tam-Tam

images via here

We were just speaking with a customer about how wonderful the French lingerie brand Princesse Tam-Tam is...and how much we miss it here at Faire Frou Frou. It's been a few seasons since the label disappeared from the U.S. which is such a loss for those of us who love pretty, everyday intimates at a wonderful price. So now we simply watch the brand from afar on their website and think of what we would buy if we could (for our store, that is).
The images for their Spring 2010 campaign are just so cute and fun. They almost indicate how happy and carefree you should be when wearing such a darling lingerie set. Granted, there are plenty of amazing brands to choose from in the lingerie world, but we can't help but miss this one.

Princesse Tam-Tam - New Fall Collection

To us, Princesse Tam-Tam represents affordable luxury. This French lingerie label has been creating adorable mix & match lingerie collections for over 20 years.
We are so pleased to reintroduce the brand into our boutique with its Fall collection! We just received two groups: Jalousie & Mascara. Both groups represent everyday elegance, as their bras & panties are smooth enough to wear under most clothing. That being said, Princesse Tam-Tam is known for being functional, comfortable, and feminine.
We are excited to share that we have a few more groups from Princesse Tam-Tam on their way in...we will keep you posted!
You can shop our new arrivals here.

Here are some images from ELLE France featuring some beautiful lingerie! The photos are by photographer Eric Traore, who seems to have a history of photgraphing lingerie & nudes (we checked out his website).
We just wanted to share the eye-candy with you!
