10 Items Every Prep Should Own:



1.A Pair of Jack Rogers Sandals

Jack Roger Sandals have been around for years. Jacqueline (Jackie) Kennedy made the shoe style iconic in the Sixties and inspired this shoe trend, now Preps everywhere can't be seen them. If you are vacationing at the beach or lounging around the pool nothing say summer like a fabulous pair of sandals.

2. A Lilly Pulitzer Dress

Whether you are dressing up for a party or going on an outing with friends a Lilly Dress is perfect for every Sping and Summer occasion. I love these dresses because one can practically wear these anywhere because they are always classy.

3. Hunter Wellington Rainboots


Original Tall Rainboots (http://usa.hunter-boot.com/)

Hunter Wellingtons, a.k.a. Wellies, are a fall staple piece for any and every prep. They are durable, colorful and never go out of style. One could wear them around the city on a rainy day, or to school or work paired by a lovely scarf and some fitted jeans or leggings.

4. Bean Boots [L.L. bean]

Bean Boots are great for snow, throw them on with a pair of your warmest socks and you'll be ready to battle the harsh winds of a cold winter day. Bean Boots, a.k.a. duck boots are really cute and can be made girly or into a tomboyish style.
5. Ralph Lauren Polo

Ralph Lauren is absolutely without a doubt my favorite designer, I grew up wearing his lovely designs and my style has been greatly influenced by him. A Ralph Lauren Polo is a preppy necessity due to its ability to be worn by all ages. One is never too old or too young to wear Ralph Lauren, and the polo design is just timeless.
6. Sperry Topsiders

Sperry Topsiders Originally began as a boating shoe company, but have grown into a million dollar trend. These shoes have been popular since our parents were kids, and are extremely comfortable. The two popular styles are the Bluefish and Angelfish(my personal favorite) however some go as far as purchasing the company flip flops.

7.Statement Necklaces and Pearls

"Pearls are always appropriate."-Jackie Kennedy
I think Jackie Kennedy explained that enough, as for statement necklaces there is no better way to add style to a button up, then a lovely statement necklace.

8. Oversized Watch

Watches are just darling, and oversized watches are even better! Watches (which are always worn on the left hand) have been in style for generations,they provide a stylish way to keep time, or just help put together any outfit. I think oversized watches are the perfect addition to any outfit.


9. Vineyard Vines Shep Shirt

Vineyard Vines Shep Shirt in Caico (Vineyardvines.com)
Shep Shirts are great because they work in every season. They are lightweight, machine-washable, and 100% cotton French Terry cotton. I love this look, because it provides style and comfort, that you can either dress up or down.

10. Vests

There are two types of vests for the winter season that every prep must own. One being the puffer vest, and one being a Patagonia Vest. Whilst puffer vest offer lineage as to which to buy and where if one is planning on wearing a nonpuff vest, a Patagonia is key.
