Lilly Pulitzer Loves Palm Beach

theprepinpink / / Comments

As many of you may know, I work for Lilly Pulitzer at the Breakers in Palm Beach. So I thought I would give you all a virtual tour of the top places to find Lilly in the town that it all started!

First stop… Worth Avenue. This is Palm Beach’s most luxurious street, lined with high end restaurants and boutiques. The first Lilly store was opened in the vias off of Worth Avenue in 1960. Fast forward to current day, the new flagship store arrived to Worth in 2018, right before I made my way to town.

This shop is more of a showroom than a store. The walls are a work of art, and the store has special features, like a juice stand and a make your own shift station. If you’re lucky, you might even see Melissa, one of Lilly’s artists, painting Lilly live!

Next stop, let’s hop on our bikes and head to The Breakers. This five-star resort is one of the most prestigious hotels in town. I must say, I am lucky to work at the Lilly store inside this idyllic destination.

Lilly Pulitzer is located in the heart of the hotel, The Palm Courtyard. This picturesque square of stores surrounds a serene area to relax by the fountain. Make your way through the doors to see our store, for an intimate shopping experience.

Walking in, you will see the walls are covered in colors and shells, and there is a coral chandelier overhead. As you make your way over to try on a signature shift, you will see the most delightful fitting rooms that make for a fab photo op! Be sure to pick up an exclusive Breakers tote and scarf to commemorate your stay. On your way out you will see our favorite farewell: “Do we have to leave?

I’m so happy here…”

After your stay, if you’re still in search for a Lilly fix, look no further than C. Orrico. This Palm Beach store was started by three chic sisters, right down the road. They carry Lilly Pulitzer, along with several other beachy brands, sure to please any local prepster.

I hope you have enjoyed your tour of all the fabulous Palm Beach Lilly stores. Stay tuned for more as I explore my new life beneath the palms!

Sydney Heaton Meets Haute Pink

theprepinpink / / Comments

This week I had the chance to catch up with one of my oldest friends, Sydney, in my hometown of Rock Hill. We have known each other since the fourth grade, and now we were fortunate to reconnect and collaborate on a few exclusive jewelry pieces.

When she was a young girl, she used to raid her grandma’s jewelry box, and loved to layer on piles of pearls. Thus began her journey with jewelry. Fast forward to today, she started her own jewelry business this year because she couldn’t find exactly what she wanted in stores, so she decided to make it herself. Can you say #girlboss?

Sydney has a self-proclaimed edgy style, as she likes to mix anything from gunmetal to gold. She adds druzy stones and pave pendants to complete her collection. What’s special about her pieces is that they are only available in limited quantity, so every piece is unique.

The goal of Sydney Heaton Designs is ‘to create trendy, unique & affordable pieces that make women feel confident and empowered.’ I had the pleasure of working with her to blend both of our aesthetics into these chic pieces.

I don’t know what was more fun, stringing these necklaces or shooting these looks, but the best part was using our creative passions to collaborate. If you want to join in on the fun, be sure to shop her collection on the links below and show off your Sydney Heaton style!

Birthday at the Breakers

theprepinpink / / Comments

This year my birthday came around and I thought… celebrating 27 would be so much sweeter in Palm Beach. So I packed my bags and boarded a plane to my sister’s place. She surprised me with dinner and drinks at my dream destination, The Breakers.

Now as you may know, this is not only one of the most renowned resorts, but also my favorite luxury escapes. We made our way to the well known hall that houses HMF. This lavish restaurant and lounge was lined with creative cocktails and trendy tapas.

To top off this sweet birthday retreat, we set our sights on the Seafood Bar, overlooking the ocean. You heard that right, the fish are swimming in the bar! We sipped our drinks with Nemo until soon we were off to our next party spot. What can I say, is there a better place to celebrate your  birthday than at the Breakers at Palm Beach?

If You Like Piña Coladas

When life gives you pineapples, make Piña Coladas! What better way to start the summer than to sip a perfectly sweet tropical drink beneath the palms.

This fab fruit is so in season, I knew it would make my Macbeth Collection top  pop. A great way to seal the deal is with a stylish tumbler from your cute cabana boy.

No outfit combo would be complete without the perfect necklace from Haute Pink. Each piece is unique from my handcrafted accessory collection.

What do you pair with your pineapple pieces?

Memorial Daze

Memorial Day weekend is always a great time to not only relax, but break out those bikinis! This three-day weekend I couldn’t wait to celebrate on the lake.

When packing up my swimwear, I always snag the seersucker suits. It’s the perfect pick for a preppy look to wear from the beach to the pool.

One of my favorite secret spots to hit is this hidden beach on the Outer Banks. It is tucked away behind the dunes, and a perfect getaway for the day.

When I’m not by the lake or beach, you can always find me lounging by the pool. It’s the perfect place to catch some rays and sip on summer drinks in my Lauren James seersucker. I was able to score all of these looks on their Pink Friday sale, and they were the best bikinis to bake in the sun. I can’t wait to wear more styles this summer!
