citrus silk and lilly pulitzer • the perfect floral dress

okay, new obsession. lilly pulitzer.

i have always adored her signature one-of-a-kind handbags, but after hunting for the perfect dress for summer wedding season, i was reminded of a second reason to love this refreshingly trend-setting designer — lilly pulitzer's saemus silk beaded dress.

it's a total throwback to the classic shift dress of the 60s, but at the same time it's modern and feminine and totally playful. the caftan neckline, bishop sleeves and citrus-hued beading make this more than a simple day dress, but a retro closet must-have.

i first saw this little lovely at neiman marcus, but it is also available directly from lillypulitzer.com in sizes 0 - 14. now, i just need shoes to match. hmm...food for another blog?
