Baby I’m ‘Worth’ It

theprepinpink / / Comments

So ever since I moved to the Palm Beach area, I’ve always envisioned having my own dream photoshoot on the most renowned street in town, Worth Avenue. Today that dream came to life as my photographer and I wandered around the iconic avenue.

On my first visit here years ago, I stumbled across Via Amore, one of the hidden walkways with winding pink steps overlooking a tranquil courtyard. Fast forward to today, I stopped by my secret spot with my photo friend and crossed the street to find Mystique. This chic pink awning caught my eye and made for the perfect shot.

Walking further down the avenue, we strolled by everything from Lilly to Louis… and everything in between! We even wandered into art galleries to snap a few photos.

We had so much fun exploring the main street before the sun set. I can’t wait to show you all the rest of our shoot as we make our way through the rest of Worth Avenue.

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!

New Years at The Colony

theprepinpink / / Comments

This New Years Eve is a special one, as it is the first of many I’ll be spending in Palm Beach! I just moved to this beautiful place, and I can’t wait to celebrate. We started out the night at an opulent mansion on the island. We were served champagne and surrounded by chandeliers. The towering tree lit up the living room as the live band began. We partied by the pool and popped in the photobooth.

As midnight was fast approaching, we made our way to The Colony. I walked into a wonderful evening lined with lights and lavish outdoor decor. We enjoyed a table with bottle service for all of our best friends.

We danced the night away under the stars at the hottest spot under the palms. What better way to bring in the New Year? I can’t wait to see what 2019 has in store!

Weekend on Worth Avenue

theprepinpink / / Comments

I have always dreamed of walking the streets of Palm Beach. Last week I was lucky enough to pass through for work and ended up staying to play!

My sister stays in West Palm so I thought this would be the perfect time to pop by. Her birthday was that weekend so what better way to celebrate that with your sibling?

We started off at our favorite brunch spot, the rooftop restaurant at Restoration Hardware. It’s named as ‘the best way to peer through the city through its crown.’

Afternoons here are always a grand affair, where chandeliers shimmer beneath glass ceilings. What a view! After we sipped the last bit of bubbles we were off to the famous Worth Avenue for some window shopping.

I loved walking past the palm trees and into the vias as I stopped into the shops. Each was filled with designer gowns and the most glamorous pieces in town.

I havd to say, the best ending to our day was making our way to the beach. What’s better than having your toes in the sand and shopping bags in hand?

The Colony Palm Beach

Have you ever been inspired by a place you’ve never been? I must say, I have always dreamed of visiting this beloved boutique hotel. Today I was lucky enough to wake up in the city’s Jewel, the Colony Palm Beach.

What a great place to stay, from champagne check-in to hand crafted cocktails at the Bimini Bar. With halls of pink walls and palm leaves under my feet I felt right at home.

Although we all know, the place to see and be seen is the Polo Lounge. The experience of luxury continues as you make your way to Worth Avenue. What better way to end your day than shopping the streets of Palm Beach?
