Daphne

I am trying to veer away from buying any more Lilly shifts this season (if I told you how many I owned you would understand why....and you would judge me). I want to expand my closet, but still try and keep it a bit more classic. I love empire waisted dresses (they camouflage my hips!) and I hit a home run when I spotted the Lilly Pulitzer Daphne. I LOVE the style and the available colors. The fit is divine as it is very flattering, but also fun. It will be perfect with a sweater for Spring and then as is for dinner during our HOT summer evenings!
Style One: CHECK, it has been purchased and is in my closet!
Style Two: CHECK, it has been pre-ordered!
You cannot beat a great style!

Those are really pretty and look very comfortable. I just recently bought a tunic and I love it. It is long enough to wear as a dress. I am looking for a pair of white leggings to wear with it now. Love & blessings from NC!

Hopsy, it is precious and no doubt will look dynamite on you! Both of them!

Can you tell us a little more about fit on petites (meaning little shorties like me?!) Does it fit more true to size, or do we need to size up/down?

Hugs to you pretty lady :)

You can never own too much Lilly....or too much jewelry. At least that's my motto! Great dresses!
