Mark Your Calendar: Lilly Pulitzer Sale on Rue La La, Friday August 12



Happy Hump Day, friends! Sorry for my lack of posts recently - just haven't been in the mood to blog and wasn't sure you'd even miss me. Blog readership, comments, etc are way down and I'm not really sure why. I'm beginning to wonder if the Preppy Police blackballed me when I wasn't looking. :-(  


Oh well! For those who are still here and still want to read my little blog, get your wallets and your fingers ready for Friday! Lilly Pulitzer is returning to Rue La La (if you're not already a member, you can join free with my link HERE). The preview photo shows the Shauna Tunic Dress from Fall 2010, so I'm inclined to believe the sale will include items from that collection - and perhaps others! Please see preview pic below - and forgive me for not cropping it and deleting all the "extra stuff" around the photo. 
Even more exciting for me? Friday is also my 41st Birthday! So isn't that a perfect excuse to treat myself to a few pieces of new Lilly? Yep, I thought you would agree! :-) 


Have a Wonderful Wednesday and don't forget to join Rue La La HERE. The sale will begin at 11AM EST/10AM CST and if history is any indication, lots of items will sell out within the first thirty minutes!

    You most certainly have not been blackballed. I love reading your blog. I wish I had known about your birthday earlier so I could have sent you a card. Well, it's definitely a reason to treat yourself!

    My comments & readership (both on my blog and actually doing it myself) are down too! I've come to the conclusion that everyone is just SO bsy actually doing stuff in the summer! All of us bloggers who think this can boost each other up!

    Happy early birthday, you deserve some Lilly!

    Happy Birthday!!!

    Can't wait for the Rue La La sale (I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this time I will actually get something before it's sold out.)

    I'm sure your readership and comments will come back once school starts. I don't think I've posted on my blog since April and I may get the chance to actually sit down and read other blogs once a week. This summer has been crazy busy!!!!

    Happy Birthday :)

    I've read your blog for a long time and still continue to do so because I generally enjoy the topics you post about (Lilly, makeup, the beach, etc). Lately I've noticed that many of your posts are centered around trying to make a profit (encouraging people to sign up for sample sales using your referral link, reviewing products for companies, advertising your facebook page that you charge money to use, etc). I also caught wind of your argument with Re-Lilly which turned me off to all parties involved. Granted, it's your blog and you can post whatever you want but this is just a suggestion to why readership and comments may be down (which you have commented on several times lately).

    Happy Birthday! Let me start by saying that I used to love your blog and admire your ability to spit and share amazing deals. I don't think you can blame less interest in your blog on Prepp police blackballung you. I'll be honest, I stopped reading regularly and lost interest when you got in the mud and publicly funded on this blog with Paige from Monogram and Margaritas Blog, you both wanted and fight so childish it turned me off to both blogs. I have enough drama in real life with a teenage daughter, I don't want to read blogs about it, stick to your roots and stay out of the mud. I also didn't like seeing you blackball Lilly stores over things that are beyond their control. I'll keep stopping by here unless there is more drama and fighting with other bloggers. I would think the fighting would be a big turn off to not only readers but businesses who may consider your blog for giveaway and product reviews.

Birthday Celebration: Lilly Pulitzer Giveaway from The Pink Pelican

Today I will celebrate my birthday. I'm a little bit sad to report, the DH is out of town and won't be able to come home for the festivities. Not that it's a big deal or anything (not a milestone birthday or anything), but I am a LEO and y'all know it's true - Leos love their birthday. I'm no exception! Tonight I will celebrate with my sister and BFF by going out to dinner, and tomorrow with birthday cake and gifts with my parents, nephews and friends. I'm so thankful for it all, but I'm going to miss my sweetie. :-(  My friends at The Pink Pelican in Huntsville have generously offered a giveaway to commemorate the day!  Most of you know, they are one of my favorite Lilly Pulitzer Via shops and I buy lots of my Lilly from Angie and The Pelican Crew! I love knowing that I am supporting a small, female owned business. In today's economy, I think that is very important. If you are considering any purchases from the new Lilly Pulitzer Fall 2011 line

In addition to giveaways, there will be Shopaholic Special discounts to help with your holiday shopping! Please join me today in welcoming The Tracy Negoshian!*** You have probably noticed from previous posts that Tracy Negoshian is quickly becoming one of my favorite designers. During recent Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales, I ordered so many new dresses and tunics, it was like an early Christmas present when they all arrived.  Tracy's designs are a favorite of preppy girls everywhere. They are easy to wear - the comfy jersey fabric is flowy, but somehow fitted just enough to be feminine. Many of the items I ordered work for all seasons here at the beach. Just last week, I wore the Sheada Tunic Dress is Navy Life Preserver to a casual holiday gathering. Say "hi" to Phillip and Angie - these two ke
