I had the pleasure of meeting Mary Lane, a HUGE Lilly Pulitzer fan, when I attended Lilly's birthday party in October. She has a bright and lovely personality, which she shows not only her inside, but on her outside too by wearing Lilly Pulitzer nearly every single day! She has a ginormous collection of Lilly.....she's never given away or sold a single piece!
Yesterday, there was an article on Mary Lane in the Winter Park / Maitland Observer. You can read all about Mary and her brightly colored closet HERE.
My closet is definitely not this colorful yet....("yet" being the key word here!) I'm like Mary though. Once I acquire a piece of Lilly, I have a very hard time letting go! I might have maybe 75 pieces between shoes, shorts, swimsuits, dresses and shirt....by Mary, she's probably in the 1,000's!
Anyways, this begs the question, which is MY personal favorite Lilly? At least right this second? It's the Anya Dress in the Pink Salmon Elite Status print. You might recall that Sandra Lee wore this dress once on her show, Semi-Homemade.
I LOVE this dress! It flatters my body type and I love the color with my pale skin and blond hair. I always receive compliments that I look pretty when I wear this dress....so why wouldn't I wear it? Who doesn't love a compliment and feeling pretty?!?! I'm actually wearing this dress today!
What is your favorite Lilly outfit?
Happy Thursday! Y'all!
(PS - I have more pictures of Lallie from this past weekend, including a new outfit I made for her. But I can't find my camera charger anywhere! That is the reason for the poor quality picture above. It's taken from my iphone. I must resolve this issue. Ack!)
Don't forget to consider donating to St. Jude's Children's Hospital by sponsoring Lallie! See the icon at the top of my blog page!
Oh my goodness--that is quite the collection of Lilly.
ReplyDeleteI only have a few pieces of Lilly. I would love to have more. Perhaps someday.
I worked at the Lilly store Mary shops at in college - she is a sweetheart! I don't think I could ever pick a favorite piece of Lilly, but right now I'm loving the Cassie dresses I have because they are so comfortable and versatile.
ReplyDeleteI love the Cassie slub dress! It is so comfy! Ok.... So, yes, it's hard to choose!!
DeleteI read that article this morning! I think your favorite dress is beautiful and looks fantastic on you! I find myself wearing more Lilly in the spring and summer and not so much in the fall and winter. I think that all of my McKims are my favorite pieces, because I wear them sooo much when the weather is warm.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard for me to pick a favourite Lilly...it changes pretty much every day. Sadly, in Canada, I'd look out of place if I wore Lilly year round.
ReplyDeleteYou (and Lallie) are very welcome! I've been a support of St Jude for years. I've been meaning to create an e-mail for my blog for months, I finally got around to it today =)
You look great EVERY time I see you - but I agree that the dress you have on is fabulous. Pink must be your color
ReplyDeleteThank you dear!! I do love pink! Lallie thanks you for your donation too!! See you soon (with baby Sarah in tow I hope!). :)
DeleteMary was so sweet-thanks for sharing this article!
ReplyDeletePick ONE...not poss~IBLE! Here's to OUR growing collections! Nothing can make a day brighter than wearing Lilly!!! You look adorbs!
ReplyDeleteLove and Hugs,
Mrs. Kindergarten...aka...Madame Spoiled
Ok! You're all right! I can't choose just one either!! Tomorrow it will be my newest Stephanie shift! ;)
ReplyDeleteLove that dress, so pretty! Hard to pick a favorite Lilly, I always get so many compliments when I roll out in anything Lilly :-)
ReplyDeleteWell, since I only own 10 pieces it's a bit easier for me to pick one. I'd have to say it's my Fiesta dress. I love the Anya dress on you.
ReplyDeleteShh! Can you keep a secret? I don't own any but i am putting my workout money towards something.
