    I guess I view preppy somewhat differently. Reese to me is more southern classic vs. preppy. I guess my interpretation of preppy is more New England/Ralph Lauren with polos, dark blazers, khaki, boat shoes, loafer, emblems/crests. Cindy just looks very Calvin Klein modern Americana to me. Meghan as well.. more Calvin Klein, modern minimal, simple fabrics, no embellishments. I'm willing to be taught though but that's my POV.

      Thanks for your comment! It might be where we live too which gives us different perspectives?? Personally, I don't see Reese's style as classic. Southern yes but to me that can feel more preppy.
      I can see how old-money New England vibes can also be seen as preppy but I see that as more Academia Style.
      I'm curious to hear your thoughts when the classic style type video comes out.

      @@EricaBallStyleWASP style and prep are more closely associated than millennial minimalism. To me the style youre showing leans more towards a contemporary millennial style. Think of how much women in the 2010's loved blazers, skinny jeans, stripes. I think thats the style youre showing but more contemporary with beiges and neutrals.

    Martha Stewart is the prep queen. So is Ina Garten. Coastal Grandma is very prep. That little Taylor Swift girl does prep well too. Look at the Preppy Handbook from the 80s.

    Boston girl here chiming in....I was raised on preppy/Academia style! These examples are more Cali girl interpretations. Ali MacGraw in "Love Story " and Martha Stewart would be my examples. The style leans more cardigans than Blazers as the extra layer. Luv this series and your excellent interpretation of different styles types

    Love this explanation. I have been trying to figure out my style and also how boho fit in my style and elements. I love flared pants but fitted on top portion. I love a small dose of fringe and flared arms on a shirt. I always called it my hippie look but now I’m 60 and still love a piece of this style but I like to have fitted elements to show my shape and I’ve grown to love a blazer whether, more so for a casual look. I love the sandals but I don’t really wear that style anymore because I’m older. I don’t wear many floppy hats. I I have always loved earth tones but I thought maybe that was minimalist. I have loved this series and I think I have narrowed down somewhat to Classic, slightly edginess with a touch of boho. 😄

      Thanks for your comment Pina! It can be a very subtle difference between the two style types. Sometimes it's the difference in fabric choices, silhouettes, or the way pieces are styled that make the difference.

    I lover preppy style . But I am more gravitated to Tyler Swift's preppy , girly style. Lots of preppy style skirts, dresses, sweaters.....The examples you used are quite representative. But I was a little surprised by Megan Markle. She doesn't give me a preppy vibe. Her style is more masculine and modern in my impression.

    • @EricaBallStyle
      @EricaBallStyle  10 місяців тому

      Thanks for your comment! Taylor is a great preppy style type. I used her in my What's Your Style video but wanted to show some other examples too. I see Megan as a preppy meets classic style but it also depends on which outfit you're looking at 😉

    This is not preppy... Slim jeans/skinny jeans is a travesty for this style imo. I feel like the women's version looks almost exactly the same as the men's but with different cuts and with dresses, skirts, and heels. If I find examples I'll leave them, but like other people here have said who live in the northern parts of America, this is not really classic preppy at all. Maybe a modern take.
