unexpected tuesday post: Lilly

Happy tuesday!

I hope your sitting with your windows wide open, blowing in a nice cool breeze as you drink your morning tea/coffee! 

What was your reaction to the amazing lady who dared 

to mix colors with adventurous patterns death?

It automatically lead me to Pinterest search some quotes of hers.

I had a blain blast and realized that my mom used to constantly dress me in Lilly, and when I was younger I thought it was cute because she bought us matching patterns. As I entered middle school, dealing with kids who only knew of clothing only by the names of Hollister, Justice, and Abercrombie, I knew that Lilly wouldn't be acceptable. I told my mom how I thought it was 'stupid' looking and I never wanted to be caught wearing these clothes. Booooooyyy was I wrong. 

I would totally post a picture of me in Lilly but I have no access to old photos since I'm at school....but I totally will as soon as I get home and have a chance to look through things!

I love that today, I always find myself pinning the newest Lilly dress to using my super cute Lilly 'you gotta regatta' large agenda. (You can find it here!) Being that I am a broke college student, I think the right choice is for me to save up until I can buy a summer Lilly dress...like this one! (I love the design on the bottom!)

Her legend will forever remain...what a lady, may she rest in peace!
