A very special person celebrates her 80
th birthday today.
As a little girl I remember hiding in the racks of clothing at her warehouse.
As a teenager I worked in her store on Long Island.
As a twenty something I got married and Lilly had my
rehearsal dinner at her house. (That day her house was being photographed for a book called
Tropical Style:Private Palm Beach. How fun are the table decor that she did?)
I admire Aunt Lilly for so many reasons but if I could only have one of her gifts it would be her ability to make people feel so loved and welcomed in her home.
