WELCOME BACK BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE! I have missed you all so much! I hope everyone's week is going fabulously! Finally, it is time for a new post! This week is the second chapter in my "Back to School" segment. Due to the unpredictable weather the East Coast has been having, it is a perfect time to start layering on the PREP!! I hope you all enjoy this post and I can't wait to talk soon! Enjoy!
Before I begin, I would like to formally introduce this weeks beautiful model, my roommate and best friend, Shannon. HI SHAN! This week I took a peek into Shannon's closet and put together this outfit. Her shorts are from Vineyard Vines, her blouse is from Zara, her blazer is from Forever 21, her flats are Kate Spade, her belt is Tommy Hilfiger and her necklace is from Ravish.
Layering is just one of the many benefits of dressing preppy. This works when the weather is unpredictable (like it has been lately). Layering is also very convenient during the school day. It is hard to predict which classroom will have the AC on or not. Blazers are one of the most essential articles of clothing in any person's closet. They are very useful in the fall months and the early winter months. If you arent comfortable rocking patterned blazers right away start off by purchasing solid colored blazers. However, once you fall in love with them (like I know you will) Forever 21 and H&M have many beautiful patterned and floral blazers!

When 2:30pm rolls around and it's HOT! Well, lucky for you, you dressed for this weather. Shrug off that blazer and poof, a brand new look. Knowing the weather was bound to change, I put Shannon in this navy and white pin striped button down. She is now able to cuff up her sleeves and still look put together without the blazer. Wearing a pearl necklace ties this preppy look together. Pearls and pinstripes are like Coco and Chanel. They MUST go together. Don't be afraid to dress up the outfits you wear to school. Pearls are fun and glamorous, just like you!! WEAR THEM!
Shannon's colorful Vineyard Vines shorts are a statement. A simple navy blue belt to break up the stripes of the blouse and the pattern of the shorts is all she needs. I paired Shannon's Kate Spade flats with this look because the navy blue stone embellishments and the belt match perfect.
Next stop...the classroom. Shannon is ready for the day and looks put together and prepared for whatever Mother Nature decides to throw at her during the day!
Have fun with preppy clothing and ease into layering with blazers and blouses! I hope you all enjoyed this post! I hope you have a great rest of the week and can't wait to talk soon!
