How To Stay Preppy In The Winter

There are some preppy students that attend Ithaca College. In the warm and sunny weather, it is easier to preppy with your pastel colors and seersucker shorts. However, in the colder weather, sometimes it is hard to "stay preppy." So, here are some tips on how to stay preppy and what to wear as a preppy, female Ithaca College student:


1. Patagonia

Patagucci!! Patagonia has become one of those brands that everyone needs to invest in. I love their warm fleece pullovers in the winter. They have multiple styles that never disappoint. With its outdoor but colorful look, Patagonia will keep you warm and brighten your day amongst the gray skies of Ithaca.


2. L.L. Bean Boots

Every girl needs a pair of Bean boots in my opinion. They keep your feet warm in the snow, and they go with almost every outfit. You can wear them with leggings, jeans or corduroys. You can even dress them up with warm socks to make your outfit complete. L.L. Bean is a preppy and outdoorsy brand as well, so these will be sure to make your preppy outfit complete.


3. Vests!!

Vests make any outfit complete. You can either zipper them, or leave them open. I like vests from JCrew and Vineyard Vines. They have a large selection with a plethora of colors. So, definitely invest in a vest.


4. Shep Shirts

Shep shirts are like preppy sweatshirts. Vineyard Vines is honestly one of my favorite brands. The Shep shirts are the best things to get for the winter because they are warm yet fashionably preppy. So, pick a nice color with a cool shoulder pattern and you will be set.


5. Lululemon leggings

You may think that Lululemon leggings are meant only for working out. However, you are wrong! Get a pair of black Lululemon leggings to wear with your vests or sheep shirts. This will make you look preppy, but athletic as well. Plus, Lululemon leggings really are high quality leggings even though they can be on the pricy side.


6. Kiel James Patrick (KJP)

First of all, you should follow Kiel and his wife, Sarah, on their social media accounts. They will give you preppy tips, as well a relationship goals. KJP makes awesome jewelry, especially bracelets. I have a pearl bracelet. Every bracelet is uniquely crafter with an anchor. These new pink pearls are great for Valentine's Day, and they can go with any outfit.


7. Blanket Scarves

Blanket scarves will keep your neck warm, but the patterns will make your outfits more lively as well.


8. Corduroy pants

Corduroy looks cute with anything. It is also very comfortable and looks good on everyone! So, when you aren't wearing jeans or leggings, put on a pair of corduroys and see how they feel and look on you! I am sure you will love it. Plus, tan ones look really good with bean boots!


9. Flannels

Flannels can be worn with anything and any way you want. You can wear a flannel as a laid back look, or dress it up to look preppy! You can pair it with a cardigan, vest or sweater!


10. Jeans (obviously)

Jeans work with any outfit no matter what. They are the last thing you need for a preppy outfit. The shirts and the shoes you wear become the focus of a preppy outfit, so the jeans are just the cherry on top.


11. Vineyard Vines Cap

If you are having a bad hair day, you can easily stay preppy by throwing on a cap. These hats come in a variety of colors and some of them are even corduroy or flannel to keep your head warm in the winter.

I hope you use these tips to "stay preppy" in the winter. Usually, we think of beaches and warm colors when talking about preppy. However, as you can see, the winter weather should not affect the preppy style.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
