James Perse teal tank that looks spendid with a Lilly Pulitzer shorts & Trina Turk skirt…
God I know some of you are going to hate me for saying this but here it comes “I’m not normally a big fan of Lilly Pulitzer!” There I know it wasn’t easy to hear or actually to say for that matter but the truth is I’m not a fan of this brand. To preppy for my taste…. I guess I’ve always found this brand to be a bit on the boring and tired side of life but these seersucker shorts with the a pink trim are just to lively for words. Lilly Pulitzer was born into socialite family in New York, her mother was an heir to the Standard Oil fortune. Throughout the 60′s, 70′s and 80′s Lilly’s bright colorful clothes were very popular (certainly not by me). For some reason I really like these shorts with the seersucker lime green with white stripes and pink trim. They are made with cotton and spandex and you know I love my spandex, so maybe that’s it? Certainly I’m not preppy or even preppy at heart so who knows maybe it’s just the fact that these are so well made and classic??? I’ll never know for sure. I also found this pink pool side skirt made of cotton and lycra by Trina Turk. Doesn’t this skirt look like it was made to just hang out and live next to the pool? It’s so Palm Springs isn’t it? Palm Springs is a fabulous place to visit, so much going on in that town…. I put the shorts and skirt with this teal cotton tank top by James Perse, who I think is brilliant. I love mixing teal and pink together, talk about 2 colors that really compliment each other nicely. I guess if I saw some woman wearing these Lilly Pulitzer shorts with white tennis shoes then I’d probably hurl my lunch but if you put these Adidas Y-3 by Yohji Yamamoto wedge shoes on, I promise I will keep my lunch!!! Talk about capturing the future with these shoes, so fantastic I can’t stand up straight. If there is any item you like on my blog please email for price, additional photos and measurements.
