The Modern Prep

3 comments

The modern-day prep is drawn to printed fabrics, tailored pieces, and unexpected pops of color. This look is young, vibrant, and fresh. Try pairing fitted jeans with colorful blazers, boucle jackets, and button down blouses. Throw on some loafers. Add a structured bag in a classic color. And finish off the look with some diamonds or pearls (they can be faux!) draped around your neck or dangling from your ears.

These are some of my favorite stylish, but hopelessly preppy pieces.
1. J Crew iPad 2 Case ($84.95)
2. Topshop Boucle Jacket ($175)
3. Crisp White Button-Down Blouse ($24.80)
4. BaubleBar Pave Earrings ($22)
5. Michael Kors Two-Tone Bracelet Watch ($195)
6. Pearl Necklace ($85)
7. Cambridge Satchel ($170)
8. J Crew Ankle Toothpick Jeans ($125) These are my favorite jeans!
9. Old Navy Printed Crew Neck Pullover ($24.95)
10. Steve Madden Loafer Flats ($69.95)
11. Aldo Yellow Pumps ($109.08)

Which are your favorites? Although I seriously love them all, I’m especially coveting the Topshop Boucle Jacket. So, if anybody wants to buy me a present…

In the mean time, I’m embracing lots of color and texture in my existing wardrobe as I lust after the clothes from above. Have a lovely day!
