Lilly Pulitzer Anyone?

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.

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

Sooooo bummed they don't ship to Europe.

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

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"

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!"

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.

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.

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!

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!

Blog post on the craziness of the Lilly warehouse sale.The comments make me glad I didn't trek out there even though I was tempted.

[glittergal1985]

A little known fact is that many of the signature stores not only discount their items during the warehouse sale, but also carry those discounts out past the end of the sale weekend. Lilly does not allow them to advertise discounted prices on their websites past the sale period, but you can call or email them about their special offers and be pleasantly surprised.

Does anyone have a swim suit from Lilly? I'm curious about the quality.
