Hey everyone, so I was thinking it would be cool to do a series of style guides on different types of looks. I chose preppy for the first installment because, I’ll admit I’m a bit preppy myself. I’ve always been interested in the whole lifestyle that goes along with the look, especially in the past. For example, Jackie Kennedy on vacation with her children, dressed in a crisp button down shirt.
So, here’s some photos for inspiration…
Cher in Clueless
Blair Waldorf and Serena Van der Woodsen in Gossip Girl
Blair in Gossip Girl
Spencer in Pretty Little Liars
Kate Middleton in a classic, prepster blazer.
Grace Kelly in a crisp button down.
Jackie O at the beach, sporting khakis and a button down.
The Vera Wang Preppy Princess ad.

The Essentials: -Schoolboy blazers (to add polish)
-Oxford shirts

-Khaki Pants or shorts
-Schoolgirl plaid
-COLOR!
