Lilly Pulitzer Hits Chicago

It's the moment I have been waiting for.... the Lilly Chicago store has arrived! This past Thursday was the opening day of the Lilly Pulitzer Chicago which is at Oakbrook Shopping mall (a regular place that I shop). Recently I have been having good lucky because a Lilly opened, two Vineyard Vines locations opened, and a Kendra Scott is coming to the Chicago area. Does this mean Chicago is going preppy? We can only hope.

But, for now I will enjoy being one of the few preppy gals around town. 

After my trip to the aquarium with my best gal pal Maureen we stopped at Oakbrook to check out the store. I will admit I was expecting more for my first Lilly experience (customer service wise hate to say it) but I was so in awe with the store that I put that aside. Everything was bright, colorful, and gold!!! I was obsessed to say the least. I ended up purchasing two things: a giraffe print tank top (will be super cute with white jeans, shorts, or basically anything) and then a navy and white trimmed skort. It sounds weird but its totally adorable. I will be for sure wearing that skort to death. Navy is such a neutral that I thought it would be a good investment piece and something I could wear more then just in the summer time. 

For now I have splurged enough at Lilly so I think I will wait around to have some more $$$ for my next visit. 

What has been your Lilly shopping experiences? Have you been to the new Chicago store? Let me know in the comments!!
