Ways to wear American preppy
Get to grips with the latest fashion, American preppy, by investing in some key pieces that will keep you on the straight and narrow for this spring and summer, and next. This trend is all about brogues, and classic shapes, colours and styles, all “cuted up” with cropped varsity jackets, playsuits, high-waisted tailored shorts, and slouchy, oversized knitwear.
This trend breaks a lot of rules, with clashing prints and geek-chic accessories taking centre stage, so leave all former style thoughts at the door and bring out the rebellious kid in you with this fun fashion. For those who are comfortable breaking the rules already, team little shorts in ditsy prints, with loose-fitting t-shirts in big, bold, wide stripes, and make sure you tuck your top in to maximise that innocent look and emphasise or create curves.
American preppy is all about taking a girly outfit and adding an unusual and interesting angle – go ahead and give your admirers something to really look at! If clashing prints isn’t really your style, then stick to the classic prep school look with brown brogues, ankle socks in white or pastel blues, pinks, yellows and greens, and wear a cute little navy playsuit with a varsity jacket in black, navy, grey or red with sleeves, waist band and neckline in contrasting colours. Keep the colours of your new purchases as close to those of your traditional school or college uniforms as possible if you’re really going to go all out with the trend, and buy a pair of black-rimmed geek glasses and a brown satchel to complete the look.
The trend allows you to look styled all day everyday without having to try too hard, and hair, accessories and make up should match. This means casual, dressed down and relaxed, whether you are going out with friends, shopping or being a lady that lunches! Spruce up your style for the evening by adding a sheer blouse, cute playsuit with ruffles, chunky sparkly jewellery and wedged brogues to your wardrobe.
