Lilly Everywhere!

Usually, I try to wear items from different stores. I rarely (or never!) wear an entire outfit where everything is from solely one store, but today, I want to wear all Lilly Pulitzer.




I love this print! It's so cheery!




I would roll up the sleeves to make it more casual.




Who doesn't love bright pink pants!? I love the bright colors all combined in a delicious print stew that is the shirt. Stew analogy, anyone?




Now for the jewelry: Since the sleeves are rolled, I would wear more bracelets than usual.




I would wear those first two on one wrist. . .




. . . and to balance that, I would wear the charm bracelet and watch on the other wrist.




I like the one on the right better for this outfit because it's not as busy, but I love the one on the left, too!






Hello, tassel necklace! I love the little turquoise beads at the bottom!




Every bright, colorful, and/or slightly summery outfit needs white. Even if it's just a little, white keeps it fresh. White sunglasses accomplish that perfectly!




I love the way the colors are similar, but it's still a different pattern. I love every single Lilly iPhone case/iPad sleeve/Blackberry pouch/laptop tote that they sell!




These are exactly what this outfit needs: sparkle! Metallics are a great choice, and shoes are a fantastic choice for adding understated (as understated as metallics go!) shine!


I love this! I couldn't wear it (I don't wear heels or bangles), but it's super cute!

Lilly Pulitzer part iii

Happy Lilly Week! These are my favorite Lilly accessories:




I love scarves! This one looks so versatile! It works for winter/spring/summer/fall and day/night and the colors palette works with most colors.

Wow! The ruffles are so unexpected! I love it! It looks extremely effortless.



I love bangles! My only problem is that I have tiny tiny wrists! Even kids bangles are too big!!! They always fall off. . . sad. But that's a beautiful bangle!



I love watches! These are so cheery! The colors go with half the things I wear and they don't look as bulky as a lot of watches. I think big watches are cool, but they overwhelm my wrist. 

I love the super thin bangle! And I love the pink/coral with the gold! Actually, I love pretty much everything with gold!



I love tassels! They are so pretty. IMO, every outfit needs three pieces. And a statement necklace totally counts as a third piece! 



Wow! This is called the Showstopper Cuff. And rightfully so! It's definitely show-stopping! But in a pretty way!



I love this print! I wish I could carry a clutch because clutches are so pretty! But I can't because I lose things wayyy too much! I would leave it as soon as I put it down. I admire people with clutches! 



The elephant is so cool! I love metallics and elephants, so naturally, I love this clutch!



Stop the press. Lilly still makes iPhone 3Gs cases!? I was so sad when they stopped making the 3Gs cases! I seriously am going to beg my mom to buy this! The sailboats are so whimsical!



My case right now is Lilly Pulitzer, and I love it! I love the colors! So happy! I didn't know iPhone cases could be happy! But they are so happy!



I love aviators. I have some begging to do!




The ginormous sunglasses look so glamorous! I don't think I could pull them off (I'm 12!), but they're stunning!


Who is already half way out the door to go to Lilly Pulitzer? I know I am!

The Lilly Story

Hopefully everyone knows that I love Lilly Pulitzer by now. I've probably spent more than a few hours at their website. It's so cool! I read the story, and I thought that it was so inspiring! So this is how Lilly Pulitzer came to be:


Lilly Pulitzer's husband, Peter, owned a citrus grove, so Lilly opened a juice stand. She needed a bright dress to hide the juice stains, so she made a vibrant shift dress.



The demand was instant when a picture of Jackie Kennedy wearing a Lilly dress was on the cover of Life Magazine. Soon, she was selling more dresses than juice. The brand took off.


Now, Lilly Pulitzer has the word "lilly" in every print. The colors are still just as bright and hide juice stains. Lilly has a team of artists who design every print in the print studio. 


Wow I love Lilly Pulitzer! I think I will dub this Lilly Week! Happy Lilly Week, world!
