A Fancy Lilly Friday!

by 12 Comments

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, if I could pinpoint my style with two stores, it would be Anthropologie and Lilly Pulitzer. That’s why I am just jittery with excitement over the fact that today’s Friday’s Fancies on {long distance loving} is all about Lilly! And her jungle glam resort collection, that is 🙂

It takes a lot in me to not focus this whole outfit around Lilly items, because that could easily have been done. Instead I chose to include just two Lilly pieces and branch out a little with the rest– what do you think?

Ritchie Dress, Lilly Pulitzer, $278
Leather Bow Clip, American Apparel, $16
Gigi Pumps, RSVP, $79
Wallet, Miu Miu, $420
Coral Siesta Necklace, Lilly Pulitzer, $58
Seaport Pearl Studs, Kate Spade, $58

Now if only I had a spring break to look forward to! I do have a weekend in New York to look forward to though, and hopefully one that includes a trip to the Madison Ave LP store…!
