We hope all of you had as much fun as we did.
Thank you for your priceless input on the brand we love so much.... Lilly Pulitzer.
Mothers Day, Mothers Life
It strikes me funny that we officially celebrate "Mom's" for only one day a year, when in fact privately they are celebrated for a lifetime and beyond.
We celebrate our Mother everyday and those of you who come
and shop int he store know this very fact.
Our Mother is our life line. We are koala bears on her
even to this day. All three of us. In fact a lot more that three.
Everyone calls our mother, "Mama". Any time of day
you can hear people shopping happily and saying " Hi Mama, How are you?" She represents Mom to everyone.
Safe, comforting,funny,sensible,gracious. Every adjective known to describe a Mother is our mom.
We are lucky and blessed. We hope you had wonderful celebrations for your Mother. We hope you do this on a daily basis. We do.
HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO ALL........

Nick & Johnnies
We indulged ourselves at lunch yesterday at the newest restaurant in town, Nick and Johnnie's.
The atmosphere is very casual and relaxing. The breeze that is caught by the 15 foot awning keeps you in the right mood. The salads range from traditional Cesar to The Brown Derby signature salad. Of course, the gazpacho, evidently Chuck and Harold's recipe, was delectable.
The wait staff is young and adorable clad in linen oxfords. We had a wonderful lunch.
The live music on the weekends will be enticing and the bar should be rockin.
Congratulations Coniglio Family on another successful eatery. Thank you for keeping us full and happy!

29 DAYS
Today marks the official countdown to:
Sex and the City, The Movie.
May 30, 2008 the wait is over.
All of our questions will be answered.
The finale of the television series was aired over 4 years ago. I was heartbroken. What would I do on Sunday nights. What would I talk about all week and more importantly would anyone understand my shoe fetish as well as Carrie?
Today on Oprah the entire cast arrives to wow the audience with Sex banter and tid bits about the movie and their lives. Sarah Jessica Parker asked the audience to take an oath of silence about the sneak peek they were privy to see today. No one saw the ending.
Four years ago Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon,Kristin Davis, Kim Catrall, and Chris Noth walked out of our lives, in 29 days they come back.
I have my door wide open.How about you?
More to come each week about our favorite girls.
A great idea came to mind last night. I was straightening the Men's pocket squares. Tigers in pinks and Peacocks in a rainbow of color, the mighty blue Dragon, and Tickle Tickle print in bright turquoise. I thought what a shame it was that I couldn't wear a pocket square. That isn't fair. men have all the luck. They just throw a navy blazer on and shove a pocket square in and off they go looking clean and dashing with a subtle yet screaming hint of color. Then it hit me, What if I took the chain off of the the Glenna Halter, which comes in a palette of cotton knit, and used a pocket square to tie the top around my neck. How chic. I quickly grabbed the two and tried it on. Ladies this is a great outfit for the summer. Cool and clean over white jeans or Bermudas. You will be the look they all want but didn't think of at every summer cocktail soiree and BBQ in town.

Picture perfect
Yesterday Lena Hyde, an amazing photographer , came over to our house and captured my boys perfectly with her camera. Lena has a studio here in West Palm Beach at City Place, which studio sessions can be booked, or she provides in-home sessions. It is an addicting and worthwhile habit. Come be enticed and book a session now.
Thank you Lena for our pictures. These boys are my work of art for my soul and my house. Who needs a Piccaso when you have Lena.
Here is a sneak peek at my boys + one pug courtesy of Lena Hyde.
SURF'S UP:
Well, there is one grand side effect of El Nino conditions returning: Palm Beach has waves. And not just the usual polite and gently rolling little curls that roll up on the sand, but head held high, get your board hit the ocean kinda waves...
It's thrilling...
It's hard to believe...
&
It's really happening...
And given our wild proclivity for pink and green, we think real men are suiting up in Lilly baggies. After all, they may not be neoprene, but they have a certain panache that is everything the bold, the brazen and the absolutely unique embody.
Whether it's the Yeah Baby electric paisley, the Tail Lights midnight blue and white Chinese dragons or the hardcore florals, these are surf trunks for men that want to stand out. Bright, shiny, blazing... this is hangin' 10 hardcore PB style.
Heck even LPGA sensation Morgan Pressel just told Sports Illustrated "Real men aren't afraid... to wear pink!"
We couldn't agree more. Catch the wave... then hit the beach.
