A Lucky Lilly Weekend

What a weekend! My Lilly wardrobe has grown, and for less than full price, which makes it even more fun! Since I know many of you enjoy Lilly Pulitzer clothes as much as I do, I wanted to share my finds. First of all, my VERY FIRST purchases from Rue La La arrived – and I am in love! I can’t believe it took me so long to join! I ordered the Set in Stone Sandals in Coral Red and the Sunny Shift.

The sandals are beautiful and they look so great on my feet. I only wish I had ordered them in white, too! I don't think I can get enough of these!












The Sunny Shift is absolutely darling, too, although I’m considering nipping it in at the waist just a tiny bit. (Is that sacrilege? I know shifts are designed to be a bit loose in the middle.)




















I am thrilled with my bargains and I will definitely be ordering from Rue La La again. (If you still haven’t taken the plunge, but would like an invitation to Rue La La, click here.)

In addition to my wonderful Rue La La finds, I also happened across a nicely stocked sale section at the Lilly store in San Antonio yesterday- and fell head over heels for the Andover Dress in the Leaf it to Me print.  (Yes, the photo below is me modeling the dress.)























The fit is so cute! I couldn’t really leave it at the store, now could I? (They also had some Adrianna Dresses, Beach Pants, Fiesta Dresses, and solid slub lawn Elina Tunics on sale for anyone who may be interested.)

Now I know what you’re thinking. I initially said that I was NOT going to invest in my wardrobe until I lost the rest of the baby weight. Yes, this is true – and I still have some pounds to lose – but I’ve also realized that I need something to wear between now and then (other than polos and khakis). So a couple of discounted purchases can’t hurt, right? (I'm so bad, I know!)

Before I left the Lilly store, I also ordered a couple of Market Totes, which will be shipped to me from Austin. I am a big believer in buying local and eating what’s seasonal and I know these totes will be great for my trips to the Farmers’ Markets. I am so glad that Lilly Pulitzer incorporated these ideas into their line and their marketing this year.














What about you? Have you made any wonderful Lilly purchases recently?

  1. I haven't, but these make me want to! I love the Andover dress. What a cute shape. I also love the strawberries on the market tote - perfect for the farmers market.

  2. Yay for new lilly purchases, especially the deals! The andover dress is very pretty. You can always have them all taken in when you lose the weight! :)

  5. I love Lilly too! Love your purchases! I bought the Clare dress and just wore it yesterday to a wedding...I'm hoping to wear it one more time before my baby bump gets much bigger.

  6. I love getting deals at Lilly! I just got the Sherman Tunic Dress in Coral Me Crazy sent to me from a store in FL since my local Lilly didn't have it - and even better, it had just been put on sale! I think it looks even better than it did before!

  7. Love your RueLaLa purchases! It was the first time I ordered from them too, and I got these two exact same things. I too wish I had ordered the white ones as well. They're so comfy, and at only $79, can't be that! :)
