Feelin’ the love ~ Happy (late) Valentine’s Day!

To start off, look at these beach pants!  Aren’t they to die for?!  I was extremely shocked when I got these for Valentines Day because not only were these from a few seasons back, but they are extremely hard to find!  But of course, leave it to my mama, and she can find just about any hard to find, desperately in search of, item you are looking for!  These are my new obsession so I am going to go ahead and apologize now if you get tired of seeing them posted on Southern Lilly Lady!

The next thing I got, and something y’all will probably also get sick of seeing so much because it is just that extremely comfy, is the weekender jacket and pants in the new Lilly Pulitzer Luxletic!  These are super comfy and light weight that they are perfect for doing practically anything in.  The pants have a jacket it that back which is so convenient for cash, credit cards, or keys when you are out and about and need to free your hands.  However, there is one flaw.  When I said earlier that I had a fit review, it was for these.  I’m sure many of y’all are curious how they fit since there has been so much controversy on the sizing.  I will start off by saying I am a true size 2 and usually a small, but occasionally an extra small.  Well, that has now changed!  I got a medium in the jacket and a small in the pants.  The reason I sized up in the jacket was because of my chest, the jacket is still snug fitting the way it is supposed to be, but now I do not look like I was squeezed into it.  In regards to the pants, I kept the size small because I like my pants like these to be a little tighter and not stretch out to much through out the day.  However, I do not think a medium would have been way too big on me either.  Regardless of the sizing, everyone needs these!  They are great!

As many of you know, my boyfriend and I do not usually celebrate Valentine’s Day.  February 14th is something much more special to us, it is our anniversary.  This year was our 6th anniversary!  Boy how the time flies!  Seems like it was just yesterday that he was the boy with cooties on the playground in elementary school and then he somehow became the “annoying” boy I had a secret crush on in my class sophomore year of high school and now he is my sweet boyfriend of 6 years!

Brandon took me on a surprise picnic by a lake where he presented me with this card.  Everything he wrote in the card was exceptionally sweet, but there was one thing in there that showed me how much he really does care and listen to me when I assume he has tuned me out:  A TARGET GIFT CARD!  Yep ladies, he is a keeper.  I’m sure all of you Lilly lovers know exactly what that gift card is for.  I have been blabbing on and on with excitement about the Lilly for Target collaboration coming up in April and have also been slightly freaking out that I won’t be able to hoard all of the items.  It was at that moment that I knew he was a keeper since he supports my Lilly addiction!  (Just kidding Brandon, I knew you were a keeper before that!)
