My Lilly for Target Scores
How could I not write a quick post about yesterday’s Pink Sunday…right? After all, I told you Friyay how simply excited (ecstatic) I was to shop Lilly for Target. Act all non-excited if you will, but a southern gal goes cuckoo over some Lilly P. Can I get an amen?
It started the evening beforehand when little C woke me up. Then I realized, wait. Lilly was about to go on sale online. So I couldn’t just go back to sleep. I waited and tried to add things to my cart for over an hour, but no luck. And this mama values her sleep over anything, so I rolled over and went back to sleep. Blush.
I already had my alarm set for 7 a.m. anyway. (I mean, like I need an alarm around here, but anyway…) I rolled outta bed, got dressed and showed up at 7:30 a.m. to find myself about 20th in line. Not bad. There must’ve been at least 50 people behind me when they opened the doors. I was frightened of being trampled in my wedges, but everyone acted very kosher. Whew.
I headed straight to the women’s section (with everyone who wasn’t going to home) and started scooping up every medium/6 I was interested in. I had studied the lookbook already. Once I had my six items to try on, I immediately headed to the infant girls section…because I really care more about baby L looking cuuuute than moi these days. Isn’t mom mentality just WEIRD?
I found baby L so many things, and I’m really glad I bought size 18 months because they fit her 14-month-self pretty well. Chunky monkey. I also think she can wear them into the fall with a cardi. Super squeal!
After I found her things (truly I wanted one of everything, but at least I was somewhat sensible!), I headed to the fitting room. I knew it would be packed and chaotic later, so I totally avoided that. I must admit I was frightened to leave the infant things on the desk, however, while I tried on my things, but the lady had them there when I finished.
Disappointments?
Not really. I mean, it’s shopping, so I think we’ll all be ok. I didn’t score the bikini bottom to my top, but I’m currently scouting either a green or pink solid bottom to go with, and I think it will be just as adorable. I bought the pink eyelet shorts, and I think I’ll end up wearing those with the bikini top just as much around our pool and the beach. They’re cuuuuuute.
I did kinda want more swim options (like the high-waisted one online), but who knows if they would’ve even looked good on me.
As for baby L, I really wanted the rashguard swim set they sold online, but alas I got the bikini in store. I’ve always said no bikinis for babies, but omg is it cuteness overload. I really should’ve bought a few things in a 2T for next summer, but I was only thinking in the now. 🙂
