What is "Preppy"?


Most people would say that people who are preppy attend fancy boarding schools and vacation in Nantucket. You could say that someone who is preppy wears a lot of Polo, Lilly, Lacoste, LL Bean, pearls, hair ribbons, headbands, and loves monograms. They look clean and put together all the time. But I think what it really comes down to is one word: Class.

People who are preppy are fairly conservative in their dress.  They generally have nice manners and great posture. Preppy people lead a more classic and traditional lifestyle. They put effort into appearing well-bread.



Preppy is so much more than a fashion statement; it's a classic and traditional way if life. Whether you can afford preppy labels or not shouldn't change that. I believe wholeheartedly in the old saying "fake it 'till you make it". You can totally get that classic preppy look without the designer price tag- you just have to know where to look.

That's where this blog and I come in. I want to help you maintain your Kate Spade style on a college girl's budget. No one should feel like they aren't rich enough to be preppy.

What's your definition of "preppy"?
