If you are new to Joyfully So, welcome! I have a love for Lilly Pulitzer and enjoy creating After Party Sale guides to help you get what you like – for a fraction of the cost! The After Party Sale is Lilly Pulitzer’s semi-annual sale with steep discounts, usually over 60% off! The catch? The sale is very popular and items go quickly! These After Party Sale guides help to share years of experience in participating in this popular sale with you!
When is the Winter 2020 Lilly Pulitzer Sale?
The most popular question, “What are the dates for the next Lilly Pulitzer APS?” As discussed in Part I, Lilly Pulitzer always keeps the dates a secret! Let’s look back at the past winter sale dates:
2019: January 7
2018: January 3
2017: January 5
2016: January 4
If this year’s sale follows the same trends, the Winter 2020 Lilly Pulitzer APS will likely be on January 6, 2020, with shopping in the Lilly stores starting on January 4. But with that being said, Lilly can throw a few curve balls and change up the dates completely! I will post an update here as soon as I get the official word, so be sure to bookmark this page.
Update: As predicted, the Lilly Pulitzer APS will start online on January 6th! Read the full announcement here.
Last minute Lilly Pulitzer APS Checklist:
- Know your size. See the sizing guide to know your Lilly Pulitzer size (and others you may be buying for) so you are not spending time searching during the sale. Items are not secured until your checkout process is completed and all sales are final.
- Create your Lilly Pulitzer account in advance. If you already have an account, I recommend making sure all details are accurate. Double check everything.
- 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. Be ready for the online sale to kick off. If you are not available at the time of kick-off, there will still be several items over the course of the sale however the selection will be more limited. Find your closest Lilly Pulitzer boutique to shop the in store selection!
- Read Lilly Pulitzer’s official After Party Sale guidelines in advance. Learn about shipping, policies and more.
Ok and one more super important tip: Have FUN! This is such a fun sale with many great finds and gifts! Make a yummy cup of coffee, and enjoy the process!
