My New Favorite Lilly Pulitzer Tunic: Meet Joycee, Resort 2011-2012

Have you been salivating over the Lilly Pulitzer Resort collection? Naturally I have since it came out, and am working on adding "wish list" items to my existing Lilly Pulitzer obsession collection. 


I always look forward to new Lilly Pulitzer tunic styles, and in this recent collection, they did not disappoint! Thankfully, my friends at Lilly included previous favorite styles such as the Ciara and the Thandie. They were also kind enough to add a newbie to the lineup: the Joycee!


The Joycee is made of a cotton slub jersey material, has full length sleeves but it surprisingly lightweight. The neckline reminds me of my favorite top (Elsa!) with a mandarin collar and v-notch front. And an added bonus: the sleeves have an elastic cuff! It retails for only $98 and is currently available in three prints.


Turquoise Jungle Glam Toile version is pictured above and is already one of my favorites prints of the season. Joycee also comes in Shorely Blue Toucan Tango. Don't you love it too?
And finally, in the Hotty Pink Scorpion Bowl.
A note regarding fit: I am finding this tunic to fit true-to-size and maybe a "touch" large. Of course a tunic is something you will prefer wearing a little bit loose, so I suggest going with your "normal" size. These come in XS, S, M, L and XL - just an FYI. 


Which print(s) are your favorite? I've already purchased the Toile and Toucan print, and have recently ordered the Scorpion Bowl. I really thought I was safe, then I saw another version coming up in the 12/25 resort delivery. Yeah, I might need it too..this one is Bright Navy Reef Me Up. My defense: I get a lot of wear from my Lilly tunics. They're just easy for a casual lifestyle here at the beach, and seem to work in our sub-tropical climate year round. Sounds good, doesn't it? :-) 
Heaven help!

    This is on my list too. I like the reef print. Unfortunately, my Lilly rarely orders larger sizes. It makes me sad. I have a daily deal for $100 and they never have anything in my size! Ooh to be a size XS.

My Visit With Caroline Grace Jewelry

Image
Happy Tuesday, Shopaholics! Thanks so much for all your kind words and comments after my last blog post. Admittedly I was feeling a wee bit sorry for myself and a little unloved. You know I'm not normally one to be "down" on anything - least of all myself! Your support means the world to me, and I really appreciate you all caring about my life - even when I'm not shopping. LOL Do you remember me being excited about getting tickets to the Bon Jovi concert here at the beach? I managed to talk my friend Lucy over at Caroline Grace Jewelry into coming down for the concert and to spend the weekend.  It was the first time we'd met in person, although we were already big buddies on Twitter, Facebook, etc. DH was calling her a "computer friend"; so thankfully she came down and proved to him she was a "real friend". We started the weekend by getting fresh pedicures on Friday morning: Then, we went down to the public beach for the concert. We tai

Birthday Celebration: Lilly Pulitzer Giveaway from The Pink Pelican

Image
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

Testing The Waters

***Y'all who were reading before - you know I am HONEST to a fault. This post contains my honest feelings and is not censored. If you came here today to get cheered up or motivated, I apologize in advance. You might want to tune in another day!*** A big hello to you all! Wow - I can't believe it has been four years since I was involved in blogging. I have often wondered "is it time to revive the blog" over this time...and after some encouragement from long time readers and friends, I have decided to test the waters!  It feels so strange - I don't even know if folks read blogs anymore! I know that most blogging happens on platforms such as Instagram, which in my mind is for pictures more than content. And heck let's face it, most days I don't even put on makeup or fix my hair, so that will NOT work for this chick. HA! If you're still around and want to read my ramblings, this is the place for you. 😀 The last time I blogged I was so focused on
