My gals and I are enjoying our little pre-Spring Break to the fullest (hence the delay in posts--sorry gang--caught up in the relaxation)!  Prior to dipping outta Lexington, I knew I wanted to refresh my spring wardrobe with some beachy prepster threads.  Thankfully Lexington has a Lilly Pulitzer signature store that I just adore---The Peppermint Palm.  Overflowing with a quintessential Palm Beach vibe, I feel transported back home every time I step foot in there (lucky for s + s, they also just so happen to be one of s + s' newest sponsors)!  Definitely dig the Buttercup Shorts and their flirty scalloped hem (see also HERE).  Check out some of my fave scallops HERE & HERE.  Alright gang, make it a good one---I'm planning on celebrating the nuptials of one of  my dearest friends from my Fort Lauderdale days and soaking up the last few days of sun before we head back home!  

PS--huge thanks to my fave Floridian photog, Lindsey Potter, for snapping these pics.  She is such a gem to work with, so dang talented, and captures our hometown just beautifully!  Thanks Miss Lindsey!

To Lilly

stripe dress, scalloped shorts, sequin dress, gold clutch, stripe shirt, buoy shorts, anchor sweater, coral dress (Lilly Pulitzer)

She embodied the glamorous beachside prep that I have forever loved since being a little girl growing up in the Palm Beaches.  She will always symbolize my favorite place on earth.  On behalf of all the gals who love pink & green, palm trees, and the Shift....Thank You, Lilly Pulitzer!

A native Floridian not sporting Lilly Pulitzer??  Unheard of in my book!!  Thank heavens we Lexingtonians have the Peppermint Palm in our backyard to satisfy our Lilly cravings! Considering Lilly started it all   minutes from my hometown, I can't help but be transported to my childhood when sporting her fresh and fun frocks! And yes, we all know Lilly and Jack Rogers are a marriage made in classically prepster heaven; however, don't discount the adaptability of Lilly.  In my opinion, she looks just as darn cute paired with a little leopard, too!
