Preppy style again in trend

The concept of "preppy style" in Russian came from English. So, in the US the word "preppy" is called prestigious colleges, preparing students for admission to various elite universities. This concept includes accent and vocabulary, as well as the manner of dressing. In modern interpretation, this style trend, very similar to smart casual.

Preppy style in clothes was formed in the seventies. It in its traditional form is an expensive high-quality clothing intended for "golden youth." The stylistic trend in modern fashion involves the combination of elitism and convenience. Regardless of what he already has about half a century, he is still popular in our day.

The modern generation of fashionable women and fashionista actively tries on the style of preppy in clothes. It is chosen by young people who want to look more and more mature, because it gives businesslike and formality to the image of a person. Preppy style - it ties, shirts in a cage, knitted waistcoats with a pattern in a diamond or a coat of arms, blazers, lowers, shorts, Bermudas, and polo. This is a steady trend of fashion. Today, traditional style has become a true trend. Actual and fashionable it makes bright colors and various unusual details of clothes. The entire wardrobe is built on 3 base colors - sand, blue, and also khaki with yellow, pink and red inclusions.

One of the main precepts of this style is that, within its framework, all things should be perfectly matched together. Preppy style does not accept any deviations from the main rules: elegance, classic and neatness. Clothing is made from natural fabrics - cotton, cashmere, wool. Among the basic elements of the wardrobe is the presence of various Oxford shirts, belts, triplets of cotton, polo, shortened bright trousers, sports dresses and chinoses of soft pastel color.

Accessories for this style are important. Gloves, scarves, hats, bows, ties and ribbons of elegant colors, handbags, purses, perfectly matched colors of lipstick and lacquer. To create the right image, you need to use jewelry, including neat earrings with diamonds and cufflinks, traditional rings and bracelets, minimalistic elegant pendants and pendants.

A girl in this style should always look natural and fresh. Compulsory flawless skin, minimum makeup, as well as an ideal hairstyle. For young people in style, a haircut for men should emphasize solidity and nobility - no long hair and, conversely, too short. Perfume should be very light and fresh.

But it would be wrong to restrict the style of preppy only with clothes, accessories or shoes. He primarily implies certain behavior.

The ratio of this style to modern fashion is very ambiguous. Preppy requires an indispensable preservation of traditions and style, which, of course, is not peculiar to fashion. Consequently, today we can hear the notion of "new preppy" more often. In other words, this is a reorientation of the traditional style to a freer fashionable mode. It is likely that this option may exist, but fundamental changes are unlikely to be possible in the original version, since classical things fashion make unusual accessories, new fabrics, as well as bright colors.
