Listen up, students. Who paid attention during art history class? Pop “Who Am I?” quiz, for you… Famous artist from the turn of the 20th century. Loved color. French. Little known fact – also a print maker. Anyone? Anyone?
OK, you all must have been s–l–e–e–p–i–n–g. Well lucky for you, we got the cliff notes. Paige, the print designer behind “Reef Me Up”, was highly influenced by the French modernist master MATISSE(!), for this beautiful, chic Lilly Pulitzer Resort fish–y print. No BA in Art History required!

We admittedly have a jewelry addiction. It seems to follow a love of chocolate and an uncontrollable desire to buy excessive amounts of shoes. Listen, it is what it is. DO NOT let anyone tell you there is anything wrong with buying accessories with abandon. Bling makes the world-go-round… especially during the holidays!
Stacey, the designer of this bejeweled beauty, has hidden every cocktail ring you can imagine in this print so it’s just dripping in jewely-decadence. That old saying “Take one piece of jewelry off before you leave the house”… yeah, we aren’t buying it. Oh and we DARE you to try and find the Lilly in this print. That Stacey- she’s a sneaky one!

Ummm, is this print genius or WHAT?! You have to admit it… you have been to Benihana and LOVED IT! Wasn’t there that time you went and got this BIG Buddha drink and everyone got a straw and then you fell off your chair laughing so hard? [Oh wait, that was Janie] Either way, there is nothing better than sharing, whether it’s a cocktail or a big bowl of ice cream, this is meant to be enjoyed with FRIENDS!
– Shop Scorpion Bowl –
We always love to show off our amazing print design team and how they bring our inspirations to life. Scorpion Bowl was designed by Paige Smith so she’s the star of our latest “Making of a Print” video. We took some behind the scenes pictures of the making of this video so we had footage from before Paige became a star – you know, so we could remind her where she started when she hits it big time 
Watch the video now!
The over-sized banana leaves in this print are an obvious nod to a fan-yourself & dab-your-forehead jungle theme, but being subtle & sneaky is always a wee bit more fun. Which is why the print team snuck a suggestion into the print. (though in these colors & these styles, we think that’ll just happen!) And what’s Janie’s favorite part about this print?? That it’s available in Men’s swim trunks. Oh she’s funny like that…
Skip On It, by our Print Designer Stacey, is the quintessential “Jungle Glam” print. It’s got everything we loooove about getting hot & steamy in the jungle – exotic flowers (can’t you almost smell the sweet air?!?), palm fronds and some hidden critters, of course. (not the poisonous kind!) We popped our jungle palms with some black making this a chic print that says “glamour, here I come!” (and though a jungle theme clearly called for some slithery snakes it was decided that jungle frogs were the way to go. But don’t worry, we found a way to sneak in some jungle snakes!)
Shop Skip On It for women’s, minnies & accessories!
Have you ever heard the saying that nothing good happens after midnight?? Well Lilly Lovers know that’s not always the case Lily has proven that myth wrong… (as I am sure you have as well but don’t worry, your secret is safe with us!)
This print was designed by Jeff Mattia & he was devilish enough to hide all the members of the print team doing fun party stuff, as well as Lilly herself. And… all the décor in the print is inspired by things from Lilly’s own home! (Jeff took good mental photos during his last dinner there) Isn’t that fun?! Any guess which party girl is Janie??
Shop this print and find all the surprises for yourself!
We have a thing for candy… and it just so happens, we have a thing for diamonds too (duh!) So our print designer Jeff, created this jacquard print that combines BOTH! A trick of the eye – those with a sweet tooth might see the candy and those who are sweet on a man in their life might see the diamond ring. Either way, we want it!
See it in the Evie Dress (a customer FAVE!) and the Vanessa Dress.
We are absolutely ob-sessed with tassels. Perhaps you noticed? They’re so chic and so sophisticated and absolutely perfect for our Fall drama theme. Enter: Macrame Me. Gorgeous colors that go great with your oh-no-I-refuse-to-let-go-of-summer-tan and take you right into fall.
Plus, the theater is just dripping with tassels and it conjures up images of a backstage dressing room filled with a velvet chaise complete with tassels, a dark lamp, and a long-legged theater actress calling everyone “dahling.” One image we never imagined? A trimmings store on our trip to Florence completely dedicated to tassels. OMG- you would’ve thought we died and gone to heaven!! (Janie almost needed resuscitation!)
Oh what, you can’t get enough tassels either? (we thought maybe) Take a peek at Behind the Rope and The Velvet Rope. That should do it!
Stripes with prints? Florals with dots? You dare not but we dare you. After all, it’s all the rage this season! That’s right, we double dog dare you to double down with a little Break a Leg and Showtime Dot. You can certainly pull off a little polka with a kick.
We took the guess work out of it for you with both the Adelie wrap dress and Kelsi Dress. Throw it on and get your thrills!
You definitely don’t want your shoes to outshine your outfit. So keep them simple (but still totalllly awesome) with our Navy Resort Chic Wedge Patent Ostrich. They are the perfect compliment to your print- mixed ensemble.
Is it a bit theatrical? Perhaps. But we think our Lilly Lovers like to put on a good show.
