But the tote has gold sequins on on the handles...lol. Like that makes it better. I am a scarf girl, I have tons of them and wear them at least two or three times a week once the weather gets cool. Otherwise, I wouldn't have gotten one. I wish there were a few more product options like an iPad cover, a zip up bag a little larger than the make up bag, etc.

I don't hate our print - but there are others I like better - Chi Omega's, Delta Gamma's.

I have a theory that it's easier to like other sororities prints better because we're not emotionally attached to the colors and symbols and the meaning behind them.

That said, I lost a lot of love for Ms. Pulitzer and her empire some years back. I read in an interview that she didn't think larger women should her clothing. So, I did her the favor of not spending any of my fat money (same exchange rate as the skinny dollar) to support her.

Wow, if this is true, I am glad I didn't buy!

I would actually LOVE to see a Tri Sigma print of course, but I have to agree with some who have said the prints get less cute as time goes on.

Though I think purple & pearls & sailboats & violets should be easy to come up with a pattern that is pretty

How did I not notice the OP's name means fat? How did she come up with that?

I have said I will eat my hat if Gamma Phi Beta is chosen - because I just don't see it happening...for some reason we don't measure up to Lilly standards - whatevah....

I think Zeta will be the selection since of the top four left, they are the most 'southern'

If they're smart, they'll do all four of the 'finalists'. I just don't see the benefit of alienating part of their customer base this way. It's all well and good to pick the 'first four' to get one, but at this point some groups have been waiting a long time. Being first is exciting, but being last is disappointing, and I can't imagine why they would want some of the groups to be disappointed. Those girls might decide they like Vineyard Vines better! IMHO, it's time to get patterns for all of the NPC groups on the shelves.

At least this settles the rumor that they were going to throw the towel in on the whole collection!

Lilly alienated me the last time they did this contest, that's why I said I'd eat my hat if we were chosen...it's the cynic in me, I guess....

I'm guessing it's a Dr. Who reference?

ETA: And I've read it as ADPi Rose EVERY TIME (and could also be a DW reference...)

Nope. It says adipose as in adipose tissue, the medical term for fat. If she meant rose, she forgot the R.

BTW, Lilly is getting stingy now. Only chose one when previously they've picked multiple! Really?! Lame.
