In New England, where we're from, there is only one true form of preppy. That is, classic domestic darling, who abhors all things Abercrombie and is polite to everyone. A true prep can cling tight to the classic clichés, or they can laugh it off and head off to sailing.
As a classic prep and her friend, who isn't really preppy but she does hang around quite a few preps and has her own insights, we try to send our tips to the outside world, so that the faux-preps (those Abercrombie-wearing, public school wannabes) can know the heights we reach, what everyone aspires to be. And maybe, just maybe, we can bring the preppy world to everyone.

I love your blog it is so fantastic.
I love the idea of this blog, but a few things I'd like to say...
1. True preps have perfect grammar and spelling. DOUBLE CHECK BEFORE POSTING!
2. In my opinion, a true prep evolves with the times (e.g. is both modern and classic). This means you can wear Birks. You can wear sneakers (but NOT running shoes. Converse, etc. are okay.)
In any case, keep up the good work. I'd love to chat, but I'm off to sailing!
