There is so much I want to do this summer. From weekends at the beach to making s’mores, I want to make the most of my favorite time of the year. In the beginning of each season I make a little bucket list/to-do list of things I want to do or try. My plans so far this summer include traveling to Atlanta to visit my sister, a wedding at the end of July, traveling to New York, spending hours at the pool, and of course, celebrating the 4th of July!

When I think of summer only one thing comes to mind– Lilly Pulitzer. Full of bright colors and to-die for prints, it’s the ultimate summer attire. I first fell in love with Lilly in my early 20’s, a late bloomer I was. When I moved to NYC, it become my go-to summer shop. It is definitely a more east coast, southern brand, but here in there midwest, I do see a few people sporting the beloved brand. During the summertime in NYC I felt like I was in a sea of Lilly–especially at Junior League– and I loved it! I am sad I no longer live near a Lilly store, the bright colors of the store always cheered me up. I would take the train from 22nd street to 79th street (sometimes I even walked), just to be in a room full of happy colorful things–plus it was fun trying on the new arrivals and taking a shift or two home with me. I was there so much, the girls who worked there new my name.
