Lilly Pulitzer

I went on a mission to find these obnoxiously lime green golf pants with pink pony heads on em. I thought they were hideous. Really? You will need to wear shades on the golf course to protect you from these pants. They are pretty ridiculous and they sell them at Bergdorf’s. My roommate designed the pants and she sent me to the Lilly boutique to check out her work.
Lilly Pulitzer is very pink. It’s almost like walking into the PINK VS store. Excuse me. That is probably an insult to Lilly. Anyhows, I walked in, took a quick glance and asked the saleswoman if the men’s section was upstairs. «Nope. You’re standing right in it,» she said. Oh my, the men’s section was ½ the size of my bedroom and thats not big at all considering I don’t even have a closet. There was a disappointing oh. I looked at their stock. Not much. Just a shelf of boxers and belts and a few shirts and pants. I spied the most grotesque pair of pants. They literally looked like a circus tent. I found the other pants my friend designed. I can honestly say now the green pants are my favorite. Shoot, you gotta have a strong set of balls to wear that s***. They’re awesome but not sold at the Lilly store.
Aside from the men’s selection, Lilly isn’t just for old ladies. I saw a lot of cute summer dresses, sunglasses, and sandals. I didn’t bother going upstairs. I saw what I needed to see downstairs. Nice and shiny but not impressive. Lilly, if you are going to show up in NY, at least bring the green pants with you. You’ll be the talk of the town.

Ahhh, such a glamourous, beatifully-​designed store. Resembling more a chic 3 floor townhouse than your typical women’s clothing boutique, this Lilly outpost offers not only women’s clothing, but children’s and men’s as well. Full selection of tops, shorts, skirts, sundresses, jewelry, shoes and pants, the store also features a decent sale section, which offers considerable discounts and a wide range of sizes. Great service and an intimate atmosphere makes for a relaxing experience of retail therapy. It’s hard to believe the Upper East Side has survived for this long without this preppy landmark.
