Lilly Pulitzer can absolutely be worn in the fall, and even some pieces in the winter months!! As long as it's the right Lilly items. The main reason that I ordered the day dress that I'm wearing in today's post is because I knew it was the perfect Lilly dress to transition from summer to fall. The navy stripes and purple design on it are a bit of a contrast from some of the pinks, greens, and bright neon hues that are present in a lot of Lilly's summer shift designs. It was so easy to make this outfit ideal for fall by adding a vest and riding boots! If looking for Lilly dresses to wear in the cooler months, look for ones that might be short sleeved or have 3/4 length sleeves like this one did, and in darker colors than Lilly's traditional summer color palette.
Other Lilly items that I enjoy wearing in the cooler months are scarves, athleisure (I adore my workout leggings that I have!), and Elsa tops. A bright Elsa top is a great way to add a pop of color to a fall or winter business casual look. I don't personally own any Lilly Pulitzer sweaters yet, but I do know that they make some gorgeous sweater and cardigan options as well!
And of course I can't forget... the best way to add a pop of Lilly to your look during fall and winter is to bring a Lilly travel mug with you for your hot beverage! I bought my Lilly travel mug during freshman or sophomore year of college, I still use it multiple times a week, and it's held up so well!! I want to ask for another one for Christmas this year since I use my first one so much.
Today's outfit post is the last of my Stowe, Vermont photoshoots with my photographer Melissa! We did a Stowe day trip a few weeks back, and were able to get some really fun photoshoots in (this post, this post, and this post were also done that day!!). Unfortunately we were there a few days before the foliage really started to turn, but I was still happy to spend an afternoon there shooting! Stowe is a very quaint little resort town deep in the Green Mountains of Vermont. It's about an hour south of Burlington, and although it's very drivable for a day trip, I think it feels much further away! Just from browsing my Instagram and Blog Lovin' this fall season, it seems like a lot of bloggers from all over the country have been vacationing in Stowe during foliage season. I think Stowe would be a cute place to visit if you're unfamiliar with New England and want a taste of small town life for a few days!
God Bless,

I haven't bought anything LP in a while. You look so gorgeous! Almost makes me want to go buy something to wear this fall!
ReplyDeleteGirlfriend, I just absolutely adore these pictures of you!
ReplyDeleteYour outfit is so adorable! I can't wait to see how you do winter pieces for the real New England winters!
ReplyDeleteIn my mind bright colors and patterns have always been appropriate year-round, but I agree that it can be a delicate balance and there's a RIGHT way to wear something as statement making as Lily in the colder months!
ReplyDeleteLove this outfit on you, Annaliese! I wear my Lilly year round haha, I can't bring myself to put it away!
