Whether you live on the east or the west coast, for Lilly lovers, National Wear Your Lilly Day is something to celebrate. Every year National Wear Your Lilly Day is on the first day of summer, which makes it the perfect time to break out the fun prints. Here are some ways for you to celebrate National Wear You Lilly Day from anywhere.
1. Make a Lilly-inspired craft
Paint a print on a canvas or wine glass is something I want to try. There are plenty of ideas out there. You can even repurpose old Lilly into amazingly cute things!
2. Read "Essentially Lilly" to channel your inner Lilly Pulitzer
Pro tip: You can get a copy on Amazon for as low as $2 used.
3. Try a Lilly Pulitzer signature cocktail
Lilly had a few cocktails she liked to serve, like this recipe for key lime mojitos from the American Fashion Cookbook.
4. Don your "Lilly tuxedo"
Wear Lilly pants/shorts and a top, popover, or jacket at the same time? Why not, especially on this day.
5. Share an "Outfit of the Day" on social media.
You never know, maybe Lilly Pulitzer themselves will reshare it!
6. Host a Lilly themed "First Day of Summer" party
Pinterest has so many adorable ideas for Lilly Pulitzer inspired parties, or you can think of your own.
7. Change your phone background to a Lilly print
Although it probably already is, right?
8. Find a new Lilly quote you love
This one is my personal favorite but there are so many great ones!
9. Buy a new item either online or in person
You don't have to tell me twice, especially when there are gifts with purchase.
10. Have a photo shoot
Grab some of your friends and strike a pose.
11. Try out some new accessories with your favorite Lilly
That new purse may look perfect with an old favorite. You won't know until you try.
12. Take a spontaneous beach trip
Lilly herself was spontaneous so live the sunny life and spend a day near the water.
13. Search a vintage store or Etsy for a new timeless piece
14. Wear your favorite Lilly!
No matter what others may say, enjoy the sunshine and wear your Lilly proudly!
