For this CTT I'm going to share with y'all the plaid shirt. Plaid has always been a long-time-favorite of the preps, and I decided that I should share with y'all how I think it has changed throughout the years.
This is what people think of when they hear of or see a plaid shirt- a lumberjack. Trust me, these days are looonnnnggg gone.
Male Vintage Preppy: You can so tell that that this is vintage. It kind of reminds me of that NSYNC album cover where they were all in jean ensembles. Anyway, it's vintage prep because of all of the jean and the layering- but we still layer today. Ha!
Female Vintage Preppy: This is the only vintage picture that I could find that incorporated plaid for women. But I just love this! This is something that you wouldn't see any woman seeing while walking down the street. Now this is definately vintage because of the collars and shoes.
Male Modern-Day Prep: This is so modern prep. You can see the chic and sleek blazer that is being worn in a navy blue. I think that he made it less formal and more casual by wearing the jeans and he equaled the two (being casual and formal) by wearing the tie.
Female Modern-Day Prep: I love Pretty Little Liars, and Spencer is known for her "preppiness". I think she pulled it off very well. I love how she used the layering technique and wore a hunter green bomber jacket on top, a grey vest, and a plaid shirt underneath. This is modern preppy because the way she layers, her skinny jeans, and combat boots.
Well that's all I've got for today! Please comment below and feel free to share with me your ideas for future "Classic Twist Tuesdays"! Thank y'all!
