Lilly Pulitzer After Party Sale Summer 2019

It’s that time of year again 🌴💗 — the Lilly Pulitzer After Party Sale Summer 2019 is happening!  The online After Party Sale will begin tomorrow, Monday, September 9th at 8 AM EST and run through Wednesday, September 11th.  Set your phone alarms, people!  This sale is not to be missed!

You can also shop the sale in stores this weekend from September 7th to 8th.  As always, the online store will have the best selection of styles and sizes to shop.  Lilly says, “We are expecting inventory to last”, so I’m more confident that this will be the best year yet!  The sale is taking place over the course of three days, which means that there’s a ton of inventory.  While some products may sell out quickly, there will undoubtedly be tons to choose from throughout the entirety of the sale, even if you can’t log on until you get home from work that evening.

The Lilly Pulitzer After Party Sale gets CRAZY, so I’ll share the FAQ and tips I share every year:

 

As a refresher, this is the BEST sale of the season, and it only happens twice a year.  The summer sale, by far, is the biggest in terms of inventory.

  • Expect additional “product drops” on the second and third day of the sale.  New styles will be added to the sale on both Tuesday, September 10th around 9 a.m. EST and Wednesday, September 11th.
  • As always, there will be a virtual line.  If you have shopped the sale before, you know the drill.  I keep refreshing the homepage 5 minutes before the sale starts, but I STOP once I get a spot in the line.  Be prepared for a wait, or “online queue”, but that means your spot is secured and you will be redirected to the sale once your spot is ready.  DO NOT hit refresh after you’ve received your spot number, or you will be kicked back to the end of the line!  Even if you have a crazy high number, be patient and don’t refresh!  The line moves quickly!
  • Get ready before the sale by pre-registering an account on Lilly’s website.  Make sure you have the correct shipping and billing addresses and credit card information on file.  This includes up-to-date credit card expiration dates!  This will help immensely with securing your cart once you hit checkout!
  • The day before the sale, log into to your account and leave the window open. Then, set your alarm! Remember that the sale will start at 8 a.m. EST, so account for that if you’re elsewhere in the country like I am.  The following morning, at sale time, simply hit “refresh”– over and over again. 😉  When you get in, you will receive a number.  STOP clicking refresh at this point, or you’ll lose your spot in line.
  • I recommend scanning the site now since some current styles may be discounted.  This will also help you get familiar with styles and their sizing by reading the product reviews.
  • Make an inventory of your current pieces in your closet now.  Take note of style name, pattern, and most importantly, sizes!  Jot these down on a notepad, so you can quickly refer to them once the sale starts.  Per usual, the Lilly Pulitzer After Party Sale is not returnable. All sales are final!
  • Be patient & prepared for frustrations!  The volume of traffic is HUGE.  There are a lot of Lilly Lovers out there! 😉🌴💗
  • You can read my previous sale recaps here and here.
  • “What if I don’t get the stuff I wanted?” — the reality is you might not get everything you want, but there are other sites that will likely be price matching the sale.  Check out Saks and Zappos for discounted merchandise.

Sandi Shift Dress (on sale!) — runs TTS, wearing size 6  //  Earrings (last season J.Crew Factory), but these are nearly identical in pink & only $10  //  Rattan clutch (on sale!)  //  Ann Taylor gingham heels (old), but these are similar options here and here  //  Sunnies

The last tip/announcement is that Lilly Pulitzer for Target is back online and in stores on Saturday September 14th!  If you missed out on their first launch, it was insanely popular and a disaster all at the same time.  Everything sold out in minutes, but they’re bringing back some of their most popular pieces.  This 2019 Lilly Pulitzer for Target collaboration will include colorful prints for dresses, household items, and more!  Prices for the entire Anniversary Collection will range from $7-160, with most items being under $50.  I personally can’t wait for their home items.  I missed out on these teacups the first time, but I’m determined to snag them this go around.  They are just the cutest and only $30 for the set.
