I am STILL waiting for my stuff to be shipped. Still "processing." I know they had a ton of orders, but this is ridiculous.

Also--hope everyone loves the free gift!

What free gift? I have gotten both my orders and have not received anything extra. Am I alone in that?

Kappamd 08-28-2012 07:22 PM

There was a promotional code for a free coin purse.

WCsweet<3 08-28-2012 07:36 PM

Darn. Missed that.

Or it wasn't out when I ordered...

IUHoosiergirl88 08-28-2012 08:46 PM

Oh, I got a 'shift' keychain...

txAOII_15 08-31-2012 12:08 AM

One of my orders is shipped! The other three are still pending though :(

Sciencewoman 08-31-2012 10:51 AM

I received a confirmation on Aug. 22, but no shipment email yet. Nine days does seem like a long time.

Sciencewoman 08-31-2012 10:56 AM

^^^ That makes me feel a little better! I'll go back to being patient.

lovespink88 08-31-2012 12:53 PM

Yep, my second and final shipment went out last night! And I got a keychain as well. I ALMOST through it out cause I didn't notice it in the packaging until I saw online that there was a free gift!

Kappamd 08-31-2012 07:04 PM

Still waiting!

lovespink88 09-01-2012 10:23 PM

My second order came in today! I didn't get another gift, which is okay with me cause I didn't need another keychain, lol I wonder if they actually did acknowledge that I did already get a gift from my first order or they ran out?

Also, I really wish I didn't noticed this: http://www.etsy.com/shop/Lillyduds?g...f=sr_gallery_1

I am *THIS* close to buying my kitty a Lilly collar. I mean they're only like $10.

Jill1228 09-01-2012 10:52 PM

OMG too cute! I might have to get some for my cats. Their Vera Bradley ones are about worn out.

yes, my girls are spoiled! :D

glittergal1985 10-18-2012 03:00 PM

Looks like a few new products will be added to the greek line, including a picture frame, new tote, and bangle bracelet. I have a feeling another "contest" is also around the corner.

txAOII_15 10-19-2012 12:16 AM

^^^ How do you know? I couldn't find anything in their sorority line online.

amanda6035 10-19-2012 01:12 AM

I wish they had a sunglasses case...

This is what the Lilly sorority reps are sending out. I'm personally not too crazy about the sequin tote, but I do love the picture frame. According to the salespeople at a Lilly store, rumor has it that they intend to at least finish up the NPC line.I'm looking forward to whatever new products may be added, as I would love a sorority planner and case for the new iphone.

lovespink88 01-03-2013 09:49 AM

Looks like some of the sorority stuff is part of their "New Year Cheer" sale!

Tropical_Dancer 01-03-2013 10:40 AM

^ including the new picture frame and tote, if anyone was interested. They both look like they're 50% off. I got the dry erase board for only 6. If was in charge of bid day, I would be snapping up as much as my budget could afford. There's also free shipping.

WCsweet<3 01-03-2013 02:19 PM

Seriously debating getting the KD tote... I'm just unsure of the sequins and if I really need it.
It's funny, I went to the a store (the only store in Portland that sells Lilly other than department stores) and tried a dress they had on sale. It was a size too small and I resigned myself that I'd never had this cute dress. Woke up today to see it was on the Lilly sale. Destiny.

Dang, I wasn't paying attention and missed out on the start of the sale - so the Murfees were all gone. And do not ask me what I was thinking (and do not tell Blondie93): I bought the Theta sparkle tote. 50% off. Told myself that I could give it as a gift if I came to my senses. Am trying to talk AOII Angel, thetygerlily, and AZ-Alpha Xi into buying their respective sorority totes. So far no luck.

Do love the Murfees, at the sale price. So warm and versatile. Otherwise, they are priced way out of my league. Not doing any dress buying although there are a couple of really cute ones on sale.

Tropical_Dancer 01-03-2013 03:07 PM

AzTheta- if you love murphees, I would check back throughout the sale. Oftentimes, Lilly adds things and doesn't announce it so you may get a deal tonight or tomorrow.

adpimiz 01-03-2013 03:09 PM

WCSweet, LOVE that dress!

I'm going on a cruise this summer and plan on getting some sundresses from Lily Pulitzer. For me, the brand is a hit or miss. I love some prints and dislike others.

Kappamd 01-03-2013 03:13 PM

I got the Laney dress and the Hart top. Here's to hoping they show up sooner than my last sale purchase did!

Hooray! I am a proud owner of the "Pepto pandas" as AOII Angel refers to them. I don't have the sparkly tote though. I can't justify two panda totes...

shhhhh, don't tell anyone else :p

seriously - thanks - I will do just that.

tea&krumpets 01-04-2013 12:40 PM

Too early to get the picture frame for my little....who I will get next fall? haha

adpimiz 01-04-2013 01:15 PM

Lily Planners are on sale! :D

IrishLake 01-04-2013 01:32 PM

Oh I like the Theta sparkle tote! The gold looks great with it, IMO!

I'm buying a few frames and dry erase boards for the girls I advise. :)

adpimiz 01-04-2013 02:32 PM

Just ordered the most adorable planner for 12 dollars! I hope it comes in before classes start back up.

Tulip86 01-04-2013 07:56 PM

Sooooo bummed they don't ship to Europe.

Jill1228 01-04-2013 08:19 PM

Sparkle totes for all NPC groups are on sale--half price. I got an Alpha Phi one for myself. My goddaughter's birthday is next month. I am thinking about getting her a Chi Omega one

(love this dress)

I was wondering if it runs fairly true to size -- dd ordered this dress today (from a different site) in the size she usually wears in Lilly dresses -- hope it fits since it was final sale! Local dept store that sells Lilly only had 2 left but not close to her size for comparison.

We also shopped some sites of Lilly stores that sell online -- these also offered free ground shipping during the Lilly sale (until midnight tonight I think). We found some items in colors and sizes that were gone on the Lilly site (probably because a couple of these sites are a little difficult to navigate) -- The Pink Pelican, The Peppermint Palm (site shows that shipping is charged, though I called and was assured that orders are entered manually and ground shipping will not be charged when billed for orders placed until midnight tonight), and C. Orrico (did not see free shipping advertised but it was free when I checked out).


*ETA: Anyone have any experience with the Resort Chic Wedges? Wondered if these are comfortable and run true to size.

WCsweet<3 01-05-2013 03:30 AM

I had to order a size up because I'm quite busty and couldn't get the zipper up. I love the wedges and they run pretty much true to size. Very comfortable as well. I wanted to buy a pair, but couldn't justify it.

From comments on the Lilly FB page:

"We have so many goodies in the Sorority Collection so we are not expanding for a bit. We will have some surprises coming later this Spring, please stay tuned to Facebook for updates. Xx"

... :confused:

I saw that too. I'm hoping at this point that the "surprises" pertain to the 12 groups not currently represented, as that was the response given to all the posters begging for Lilly to "add XYZ!"

Argh, that's a real bummer. I know they are a private company and can do whatever they want to earn a profit, but it sucks to feel like your group is left out.

Any surprise that isn't (or isn't comparable to) "we are releasing prints for the remaining groups in a timely manner!" is just not okay to me. If it's "here's more items for the groups we have currently represented!" my bank account and I will happily say no thank you.

sweetongreek 03-30-2013 06:11 PM

I absolutely adore Lilly but unfortunately I think it can look a little too overwhelming... especially if you're in a group of sorority girls also wearing bright floral Lilly dresses :)

I did buy a lovely white lace dress from Lilly for initiation and have several other purchases; I noticed they do tend to run a little small in the bust area, so I have typically sized up one size for that reason and hemmed/taken in the sides accordingly.

As for the sorority collection: not a fan of the totes! Simply because I like the more basic look of the Vineyard Vines totes, but I really love the prints and I'm considering getting a scarf or bracelet, which I think are a little more subtle. Sometimes I think 'Lilly overload' can be a little obnoxious!

AOII Angel 03-30-2013 06:37 PM

I bought a Lilly AOII scarf on eBay for fairly cheap. It is a POS. I couldn't believe how poor quality it was. I will be handing it off to someone at Convention. I wouldn't be caught dead wearing that thing.

So glad you mentioned this! It's disappointing how designer labels overprice for poor quality :( I'm fine with spending the money, but it sure as hell better stand the test of time!
