  1. Hi! <3 your blog, first off!

    You can find vintage Lilly of all sorts (shifts, long dresses, button downs etc) at the Lilly Shop in Manhattan on Madison Avenue - if you call, I'm sure they will be able to tell you about their stock and send pictures! They're not as well priced as, say, an e-bay purchase, but you can be sure that the quality will be consistent - in my opinion worth paying for! Also - I stole a million from my Mama, so it might be worth double checking (my Mom didn't think I would want "old things"! Imagine!) Good luck!

  2. I have quite a few in my closet and I was looking to get rid of a few, if you send me your email I will take pictures this weekend and send to you. I have a great one that is kind of a pique or almost weave fabric, white background with a light blue and light green floral print.
