Palm Avenue
Owners Rebecca and Jeff Byrd of Greensboro, North Carolina opened their first Lilly shop, Simply Lilly, in 2001 in Winston Salem, NC. Although it is no longer open, from that first shop, 4 current Lilly Pulitzer Signature Stores were born in the South! Palm Avenue opened in Raleigh, North Carolina’s Cameron Village in 2002, then Greensboro, North Carolina’s Friendly Center in 2003, next on Charleston, South Carolina’s historic King Street in 2003 and finally in Savannah, Georgia in the Abercorn Walk Shopping Center in 2009.

Pink Bee
Memories of a Lilly Pulitzer Shop in Sarasota, FL, during the ’70′s and ’80′s inspired Joanna Sherman to open a women’s and children’s shop in Greenville, South Carolina. Joanna began selling Lilly Pulitzer clothing in the back of her mother-in-law’s juvenile furniture store. Within six months she opened as Bumble Bee’s on Augusta Street.
After seven successful years Joanna expanded, changing the name to Pink Bee and moving to Greenville’s West End. While visiting the West End, you can browse through the shops in the West End Market and surrounding streets, dine in one of the area’s unique restaurants, enjoy a theater performance, or take a stroll over the world-class pedestrian bridge across the Reedy River Falls.
Joanna’s shop is the only place you can find Lilly Pulitzer clothing, shoes and accessories in Greenville. When visiting the Pink Bee, you will experience what Lilly Pulitzer is all about – a fun attitude, a casual sort of elegance; a style called “affluence at ease.”
We love connecting with our customers- even when they’re not IN our shop so connect with us on Facebook and say hello!
