I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and New Years Eve. The fun is not over yet – it’s time for the Lilly Pulitzer After Party Sale! This always feels like Christmas, part two, in my opinion and is a much anticipated event throughout the year! Truthfully, I am actually even more excited about the items in this sale compared to the September sale! Inside are 2021 Lilly Pulitzer After Party Sale tips and predictions!
1/3/21 Update: APS Preview with 50+ items!
2021 Lilly Pulitzer After Party Sale
Online: January 4-5, 2021
Lilly Pulitzer Stores: January 2-3, 2021

Last minute Lilly Pulitzer After Party Sale Checklist:
Items sell out quickly – I like double checking everything before the sale kicks off! Get in some cozy clothes and let’s go over some quick tips!
1. Know your size. Read the sizing guide in advance to learn your Lilly Pulitzer size (and others you may be buying for) since items can sell out quickly during the sale. Linked below are sale predictions with reviews and item-specific sizing.
2. Create your account. Set up and update your Lilly Pulitzer account in advance. If you already have an account, I recommend making sure all details are accurate.
3. Shop early. The online portion of the sale has a large selection of Lilly Pulitzer apparel and accessories but the popularity of the sale causes a lot of items to go very quickly.
4. Be prepared. Read Lilly Pulitzer’s Official After Party Sale Guidelines in advance. Learn about shipping, policies and more.
5. Check other retailers. Look here, here and here for potential Lilly Pulitzer sales. Hint: in the past, on the first morning of the sale, you could find sale items here before they went live on LillyPulitzer.com. These retailers may also have items that sell out on Lilly Pulitzer’s website.
And one more super important tip: Have FUN! We all know 2020 was a rough year, this is such a fabulous way to add a little sunshine into the new year.
After Party Sale Predictions
Lilly Pulitzer keeps the sale details secret until the sale begins to keep the party a surprise. If you want a sneak peek, these are a few predictions! Some items may get added to the sale on Tuesday, so be sure to check back!
(While Lilly prepares for the sale, items will say “no longer available” until the sale begins online on Monday morning or updates added on Tuesday.)
Samia Romper: This off-the-shoulder romper is a head turner! A sunny day favorite!
Astara Romper: Colorful play on colors!
Ana Top: A fun, flowy top! The color is very vibrant and may be available in a pretty green option, as well. This can wrinkle easily, but my steamer gets it out in a few minutes.
Corbyn Sweater Tank: I love a good sweater tank! The orange in this is BRIGHT and fun for the warmer months. It’s also available in blue which layers well with cardigans.
Autumn Midi Dress: My FAVORITE!! Gorgeous and waist slimming! May also be available in white.
Aaron Silk Top: SO pretty in person! Vibrant colors with overlying shimmer detailing.
Doria Puffer Jacket: Love the ruffles on this jacket! Great length (I’m 5’3″ for reference) and chic details!
Darlah Silk Dress: Pretty in pink! Great dress for cocktail event or wedding guest! Fits TTS or slightly small in my opinion.
Idina Silk Top: True Lilly style with the gold metallic clip dot details. Pairs well with gold accessories!
Noella Puffer Vest: So many amazing details! I love that every piece of this vest was created so beautifully! This may be available in the pretty beige color, too! Paired this with the Idina above.
Adrienne Halter Tank Top: Love the crepe fabric and gold chain straps. Pairs perfectly with Lilly Pulitzer gold accessories!

2021 Winter Lilly Pulitzer After Party Sale: Categories and Pricing Estimates
Lilly Pulitzer Dresses
We all love Lilly Pulitzer dresses and how beautiful they make us feel! Given the current pandemic, I anticipate the more casual and affordable dresses to sell out quickly. Two dresses I love in this category are the Kristen Swing Dress and UPF 50+ Sophie Dress. While Lilly is known for their prints, the solid navy and black options are so pretty in person!
Estimated pricing: from $39 for cotton dresses to $99 for maxi and silk dresses
Lilly Pulitzer Sweaters and Tops
Since most people are working from home, cardigans will be a popular item this sale. Lilly usually includes a Tatum Cardigan in each sale (sometimes on day two, so keep an eye out!). I have an older version of the Amalie and love it for layering with camis and dresses! Annnnd I think the Noelle Vest will be part of the sale!
Estimated pricing: from $24 for cotton shirts to $79 for printed Elsa tops
Lilly Pulitzer Activewear
Bring on the leggings and pullovers!! As a Physician Assistant, I am a big fan of the UPF 50+ line for its skin-protective benefits. Raised hands for the Justine this season. While I am not certain it will be in the sale, the Al Fresco is the bomb! It has gorgeous gold details and is so slimming! If it is included in the sale, I will be buying both color options.
Estimated pricing: from $19 for tanks to $59 for leggings
Lilly Pulitzer Bottoms
One of the most popular items is usually the Buttercup Shorts as they are versatile and usually priced around $29-34. These past few seasons, Lilly Pulitzer has released several cute skorts that will probably make an appearance! The Aila mixed with a solid tank or pullover creates an easy, athleisure outfit.
Estimated pricing: from $29 for shorts to $59 for Palazzo Pants
Lilly Pulitzer Accessories
Every year, one of the fastest things to sell out are the luggage tags. Since they are so cute and priced under $10 in the sale, buy them early if you plan on purchasing these. This is also a great time to stock up on gold jewelry! Lilly does a great job at making their pieces easy to mix and match with each other.
Estimated pricing: $5 for small items to $79 for shoes
Check back on Sunday, as I will be adding more sale finds and pricing to this blog post after I visit my local Lilly Pulitzer store this weekend! In addition, I will be posting up to date information on Instagram and in the LIKEtoKNOW.it app! Be sure to follow for more.

Love your blog! I am crazy about Lilly! I think we are about the same size. I am 5’ 2” and about 114. So excited about the After Party!
Thank you! And yes, we are pretty much the same exact size!
Do you have any idea of prints and possible items that are going to be on sale at APS?
Thanks
