Our first offering for 2011 slants a little bit towards the preppy and collegiate theme – a likely effect the new academic year starting and having sent our kids back to school this week. One of the principles of preppy style that we looove and adhere to the most is that “Clothes can cost any amount, but they must fit. Many a preppy has an item from a vintage shop or a lost-and-found bin at the club that was tailored and looks incredibly chic.”* As we have always tried to propogate, there is no shame in used, ladies!

Preppy is often mentioned in the same breath as Ralph Lauren, and the brand’s classic and ubiquitous polo shirt has become a fashion must-have with the preppy set the world over. It can be worn with just about any type of bottoms – khakis, shorts, jeans, skirts etc; which means it’s a good place to start if you’re looking to kick it with the preppy types. Right now we're offering pre-loved Ralph Lauren ladies skinny fit polo shirts in the yummiest, juiciest, preppiest shades of navy blue, sky blue, and hot pink, and apple green. Stick with us, and you'll be well on your way to prepdom!

A TaiTaiTip: You can’t just look the part; you must also play the part! As you pop your polo shirt collars, don't forget the proper etiquette to go with that preppy style. Always demonstrate grace, good manners and civic-mindedness i.e. NO texting at the dinner table, never talk about money, make eye contact when meeting someone for the first time, write thank you notes, and resolve to call Grandma once a week (seriously!)


Ralph Lauren Skinny Fit Polos
Rainbow brite: What sets the preppy style apart from the rest is the insouciant sense of color.  So splash a bucketful of bright bold colours into your ensemble with these timeless and super-comfy tops. Besides, you can never have one Ralph Lauren polo shirt too many (trust us on this)! Each shirt has two-button placket with ribbed polo collar and armbands. Buttons are embossed with brand name. The embroidered pony accents the left chest.
