Pretty Pink Fashion Scoop!!

Yay, found some Lilly in town today.

I love Lilly Pulitzer, but couldn't find my fix in Montclair. Years back, we had a little Lilly outpost over on Lackawanna Plaza, but it's gone. Now I can get the stationery, umbrellas, goblets and more at Pink Bungalow on Valley Road, but not the clothing....

Since I've been trying to watch my spending, haven't been in Thread, the cute clothing boutique at Watchung Plaza, for months. But I found myself over there today, in between some tough appointments, so I took a peek at the sale rack out front and there was a navy knit Lilly dress, in my size, 50 percent off!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Inside, I found lovely, blonde, pony-tailed mom of three and stylish shop-owner Kendra--and more adorable Lilly clothes, including a beautiful hot-pink, bateau-neck sweater for $78.

You've got Lilly Pulitzer! I can't believe it! I love Lilly! I said.

Yes, we have a few pieces, Kendra said.

Had to resist the sweater. But Kendra was kind enough to hold the sale dress for me for a few days, until my check comes in.

Good pink night.
