Preppy Outfits: It’s Time to Mix up Your Style!

Some individuals may look at a display of preppy outfits and think it’s a “one size fits all” mentality.  That preppy clothing is one flavor of generic old fashioned style that is impossible to do anything with.  I’ve heard the terrible talk- but you and I are both aware, as the preppy clothing geniuses we are, that preppy outfits can be taken so many ways, as well as fit into so many other categories!  We know the reason the “preppy outfits” style has lasted so incredibly long, throughout the decades!  In this article, we will explore the different styles that mesh so wonderfully with the usual preppy outfits we are used to viewing as delicious classics, including:

  • Casual Preppy Outfits
  • Glam Preppy Outfits
  • Classic Preppy Outfits (because we can’t resist speaking about the classics!)
  • Romantic Preppy Outfits
  • Bohemian Preppy Outfits

The Casual Prep

The casual preppy outfit is what we wear when we just want to take a stroll out of the house, but still want to demonstrate that prep flare that makes you, you!  For example, our Kensington pant is easily paired with a solid polo and sweater-vest for an easy throw on matched with an adorable pair of keds for easy and light maneuvering.  Even pair your cute university sweatshirt with your casual, laid back pant and you’re ready to go!

The Glam Prep

Roll those sleeves back and add a bold lip to embody the glam preppy outfit!  Oddly enough, for my own glam prep look I really love to take a skort (as opposed to a skirt, simply because the skort hugs much better and is more fitted) and pair it on the top with a billowy collared, sleeveless polo.  My polo of choice is covered in flowers fashioned of the same material as the rest of my shirt.  This together just creates such a glamorous look when paired together with the right accessories!

The Classic Prep!

Of course, it’s impossible to speak on how lovely and versatile preppy outfits can be without mentioning the preppy classic!  One hundred percent, my favorite thing in the word to do when it comes to classic preppy outfits to do, is to take a dress such as our Melly M. Greenwich style dress, and wear it over a pollo!  You definitely have to find the proper way to do this without it looking too silly, but if you can find patterns that mesh well, it’s definitely doable and puts a spin on the classic look of the stand alone dress.  Be the fashion icon you were born to be!

The Romantic Prep

It’s easy to pull off a romantic preppy outfit when you have a floral article of clothing around!  For example, our Lyfrod dress in Jules pink has the perfect pattern, frills, and shape to give you the romantic preppy outfit you’re looking for.  Pair with a feminine, detective style jacket and little kitten heels to get the sweetest romantic look out of your preppy outfits!

The Bohemian Prep

One of the best and newest spins on the preppy outfits universe has to be the bohemian prep look- check the fashion news of the stars and you’re sure to see an interesting spin.  Our Cayman dress can pull this off extremely well if paired with a bohemian-style hat and long, layered necklaces!  

Play with your preppy outfits, and try all the looks!
