The True Prep Aesthetic

The preppy aesthetic is commonly referred to as traditional, classic, and professional.  This may be true when it comes to uniforms.  Preppies typically grow up having to wear uniforms to school, to church, and to family events.  But casual dress is the real opportunity for the presentation of personality.  This is where the preppy aesthetic is truly on display.  The most common features associated with this aesethic are irreverence, color, and playful disdain.  My good friend, Mr. R.E.H, always impresses me with his style choices.  His style is bold, loud, and eminently professional.
