Sorry for this late Friday post! I forgot it was Thursday yesterday and didn’t prepare my post for today…Oops!
Anyway, here’s my attempt at a preppy outfit. I missed the preppy boat during my school days and probably never even wore a button down shirt. So here’s my attempt: a button down shirt, pearls and loafers say preppy to me. But I tried to mix it up with the ripped jeans (See, I told you I wear them a lot!), leopard print loafers and bright pink lips!
I’ve been on the lookout for a striped button down shirt. I really like this one at J.Crew Factory (obviously) but it’s a little more than what I wanted to pay at the moment. So for less than $20 this Forever 21 shirt fit the bill. And did you know about the J.Crew sleeve roll? (I probably missed the boat on this one too) My sister told me about it and I’d never heard of it before…haha. It’s actually helpful if you have a shirt with contrasting cuffs. That way it doesn’t get hidden when you roll your sleeve. Genius!
And check out my latest sponsor: Meghan from Whatsername Jewelry etsy shop! She sells very cute handmade initial and name jewelry and charms. I really like this monogrammed initial pendant necklace. I would get one with my husband and I’s initials 🙂
I hope you all have a great weekend! I’m really excited for next week! I can’t believe it but next Wednesday is my 2nd wedding anniversary! My husband and I are going to Napa to celebrate! And Tuesday is Jeans and a Teacup’s 1st anniversary! So I’d love to have you stop by for a week of fun posts and a surprise!

Great look. Preppy but not typically so with the over-sized pearls & the great shoes!
I love this preppy look! It's so cute. I totally missed the preppy boat in school too. I'm making up for it now.

I love anything preppy – it's sort of my weakness.
