Still with me there? In my mind, there are two types of Lilly: classic or modern. To me, the Mila dress is so quintessentially classic. Maybe it’s the cut (you can never go wrong with a shift dress), the punchy pink combo, or the white embroidered piping. Put those three together and you’ve basically got the brand’s trademark look.

I’ve worn a lot of Lilly lately (and even celebrated #NationalWearYourLillyDay earlier this week), but before the Mila dress, most of what I own is what I’d consider “modern Lilly.” A sporty-inspired style like the Shay dress. A romantic whispy white frock like the Sienna dress. An easy trapeze number like the Carmel dress. You know those are right up my alley, but to my delightful surprise, so are the classic styles. There’s nothing that gives me vacation vibes like wearing something bright, punchy and so so girly. Just add a pair of Jack Rogers and you’d never know that I’m originally from the west coast! Do you have any favorite Lilly pieces in you wardrobe or on your wishlist?
