The preppy look is a great look all year round. You're probably wondering what is the preppy look. We've all seen it. Just in case you're wondering. The preppy look is a look that consists of a cardigan, collared tops usually button-ups, a breton striped top, chinos, A-line skirts, shift dresses, boat shoes, laofers, pumps and some other pieces. The above listed are the main pieces that make up the preppy look. You only need a few of these pieces at one time to create the preppy look.

The preppy look kind of requires some layering. Not too much layering. The look if worn right would require you to layer a sweater over a button-up shirt. The preppy look is a look that not everyone would like. The preppy look may not be for everyone because it is a look that is not necessarily always fitted or figure hugging and depending on the pieces you put together it may look a bit masculine and boxy. Due to this not all women would lean more towards this look.

Even with the somewhat cons I listed above depending on who you ask. I still think that the preppy look is a look worth trying out. The preppy look is the perfect look if you work in a 9-5 office job or any office or corporate work environment. The preppy look is also a great look for school/university. The preppy look is a suitable look if you're going to a country club or to play tennis or possibly even golf. You may already have the pieces to put together the preppy look in your wardrobe. So there is no need to go out and buy a bunch of new clothing pieces. But if you don't have the pieces to put together the preppy look then you've come to the right place. Below are some preppy look ideas. To learn more about each look below you can click on each link below the pictures which will take you to the retailer selling the look.
