Spotted: Preppy Chic Style

When we think about preppy style, a certain dullness and boredom usually comes to our mind. It's been so mainstream throughout the history that it really doesn't rime with "in fashion". I personally love simple, classic, neat looks. Show me an outfit that I will be able to wear year after year and I'm sold. However, if anything that reminds you of your mother and grandmother makes you run as fast as you can from it, you probably didn't give the preppy look much consideration. Think again! There are ways to make a preppy chic style as fun and sexy as you are. Without changing your usual style, add preppy elements to your outfit. For example, tie a bright colored cardigan over a simple jeans and t-shirt combo, go for nautical stripes with rocker/tough chick accessories, etc. Get inspired by Blair from Gossip Girl and other celebs.
