Everyone gets excited when we have one of our online sales but there are some things to remember that may make your crazy sale shopping more enjoyable!

Come say hello before the sale & introduce yourself. If you are not familiar with splashofpink.com you may want to navigate around the site to see how it works. There will be a large block on the homepage as an easy entry into the sale area that will be visible on 4/16 at 12:01 am. If you do not already have a splashofpink.com account make sure to create one before the sale starts to save some time. Remember: our inventory is ‘real-time’ so if you add something to your cart but delay in checking out someone could scoop it up before you seal the deal!  This is just how real-time inventory works.

Free shipping! We will be offering FREE GROUND shipping on all orders over $50 during the 2-day sale. If you select priority shipping (next day/2-day/3-day select) please call the store after your order is placed and give us your order number so we can ensure your order gets to you priority. These sale days create very high traffic and we tend to operate 48 hours behind in getting the orders out to you. Please allow 2 days for processing all ground orders.

Quickly narrow your search. Say you’re after some dresses for your wardrobe. The quickest way to narrow the search for all the dresses available in the size you’re looking for is to go to that category page and at the top, right above the product pictures, you can select the size you need and you’ll see that your choices below will have changed. You can use this method of shopping to narrow the search for any of the categories you’ll be shopping.

I will start with my #1 favorite white dress – the Adeline Dress. This dress has all the ingredients for timeless elegance. The sweet daisy eyelet fabric and scalloped hemline give it a wonderful feminine touch and the ruffled pop collar keeps it right on trend!

Next lets take a look at our bridal options. Perfect for a destination wedding, beach wedding or even your second wedding these dresses scream wedding chic! First there is the Kiera Dress that has the same great body of the Eryn dress from last spring but has a v neck line in the front and back. Your statement necklace has the perfect place to lay! I see the Isadora dress on a beach side bride walking down the sand aisle barefoot. Her floral bouquet being the only pop of color she needs! The Reeve dress is back in this collection and perfect for the bride who doesn’t want traditional bridal but still wants all eyes on her! The Adriana Dress is also special enough for a wedding for the bride or the mother-of-the-bride. The gold metallic stitching gives you all the shimmer you need!

Now lets talk about the must have graduation dress! The teen age Lilly lover will surely love to have the Franco dress under her gown. This classic style is offered in white lucky seersucker this spring and requires only a smile to go with it!

We also love love love the Blossom dress in the wrapping stripe, the Bowen dress in the textured lace and the Joan dress in the daisy eyelet. All sure to knock them out when you are able to flip up your hat and take off the graduation gown!

There are other dresses that are completely new styles for Lilly Pulitzer that we need to mention as well. The Nicolette Dress has the most beautiful fringe on the bottom that gives the appearance of a little longer length but really it is short and sexy. This dress is also running a size big so order a size down from your normal….who doesn’t love to do that! The Bree dress is longer in length and fitted through the body. We love this ladylike dress because of the off the shoulder neckline.

No matter what the occasion you have ahead of you – if it is a white dress you need you need not look any further!

You will find it in our Lilly White Dress Shop for Spring 2012!

Luckily for me, my beloved Tate skirt only had to include three crucial states:

Connecticut- Because it is Splash of Pink’s homebase. And who doesn’t love a cute whale?

North Carolina: Serving as our vacation home away from home, looking at this patch brings back all of the memories we have in Duck, NC.

New York: Although our favorite Yankees didn’t make this patch’s cut, Marc & I grew up here and are proud to be New Yorkers.

Here at Splash of Pink we all picked a style from this print collection to wear – there are so many different styles to pick from!

We all know that the Murfee Scarf is an item that seems to end up on us no matter what the season. I am working with five Murfees and have my eye on the Bright Navy Touchy Feely to round out my collection. These scarves go on my neck for warmth, stay on my neck with a t-shrt and jeans and even end up tied to my purse for a bit of color. My J.Brand jeans have my vote for best jean of the year. A great skinny leg to wear with boots. Speaking of boots I have 3 that have seen me through every type of weather. My Hunter boots (with the liner of course) are my best friends on a rainy day. I don’t leave the house without my Uggs when it is so cold I can’t feel my nose and my Tory Burch riding boots just make me feel pretty when I am out with the girls…oh and the Resort Chic wedges are good for the same reason! My other go to piece I grab for everyday is one of my Before & Again Tshirts. The thermals are the way to go for snug fit and layered over a long tank you can’t go wrong….just pick the print(s) you love!

Then there is the adorable little frog jumping into the Skip On It print:

My favorite toucan in the Toucan Tango print and the snippy scorpion in Scorpion Bowl:

Those are some of the adorable critters found in the current Resort 2011 collection now in store and online at splashofpink.com and for being a fan we will give you a peek at a critter you will see in the new spring collection that will be online January 28th!

Here is the Lilly’s Pink call me Kitty Cat print that is part of the February shipment and we are excited that we have another critter to put in our closet!
