Beyond Lillian C. Limited

This blog is a reflection of my mental sketchbook... all that inspires me.  My vision came to life in my lifestyle boutique, Lillian C. Limited, which I ran for five years.  I no longer own my shop, but I still have a bevy of customers who request special items, and it's a joy to continue to source the best.  Should anything you see here strike your fancy, let me know, and I'll work with you to order it. 

I have an eye for classic design punctuated with both a fashion-forward attitude and a slight nod to trends.  I love the juxtaposition of high-low and incorporating textural elements found in nature (shagreen, horn, coral, bamboo, bark, suede, or agate) and through artisans (jewelry, painted porcelain, woven wraps, and silk scarves).  To kick off this blog, here are some of my favorite snapshots of Lillian C.
