H&M Hits Savannah

Last week was the long- awaited launch of the H&M in Savannah. The grand opening was August 4th on Broughton Street, our stylish shopping district. The sidewalk was lined with savvy shoppers awaiting the brand’s arrival, and their swag bags!

We watched from work across the street, and snuck over. The line was bumping with Beyonce music and we just made the cut for these cute bags. The first 250 customers received these goodies, along with the coveted 25% off coupon.

The girls and I stormed the store with four stories of sales. I got stuck in the sunnies section, and theres no question why. I mean look at these summer accessories! I made my way to the tops and soon came across some sequin tees with flamingos and palm trees. Can you say vacay?

This chic store brought a more modern feel to the otherwise historical style downtown. The fab fashion and low prices drew in the hot young crowd, and the trendy tunes made playing dress- up fun again. What do you think about all of Broughton street’s new boutiques?

After Party Aftermath

Lilly Pulitzer just hosted one of their hottest sales parties of the year. It was so exclusive you had to wait in a ‘virtual line’ to enter. This gave a whole new meaning to the term VIP.

Amongst all the craziness, i was able to score these two darling dresses! I had my eye on many more, but I was happy to come out with a few fab pieces. First is the Siena Dress featured in Summer Haze, perfect for a night out on the islands. Next is the Reecy Dress in I’m No Angel. You could say it was a match made in heaven, as Angel is my last name!

An added bonus was receiving a holiday bonus from my bosses. With this, I was able to snag some of the sassy accessories I have been eyeing. Featured above are two Tiki Palm wristlets, a Lilly scarf and two Boca bangles featured in some of my favorite prints, from oldies (First Impressions, Let’s Cha Cha, and Dripping in Jewels) to new goodies (Tropical Storm).

If you are a Lilly lover like me, you know that ‘too much is never enough.’ To get prepared for the next sale party, check out a few of my tips:

  1. The night before, make sure you have an account and that it is updated so you don’t lose precious time at checkout.
  2. The sale opens at 8 am and you will be placed in a virtual line so make sure you open the site a few minutes before hand.
  3. Do not refresh the page or you will lose your coveted spot.
  4. Just because something is in your cart, doesn’t mean it is reserved. So don’t be afraid to check out early and often to get what you really want, because they do have free shipping after all.
  5. To better your chances, use multiple devices.
  6. If you missed out on your must haves, reach out to your local Lilly Pulitzer and signature stores. They will be matching After Party prices.

I hope this helps all you Lilly ladies out there. Good luck and happy shopping!
