Image
Hello my prepster angels! My name is Greta and today we are going to be talking about how to dress preppy under a budget, aka how to prep for less! So please comment down below, follow my blog and follow me on instagram  @afabulousstyle ! Lets get started! 1. Look in basic stores like forever 21 for plain clothing items such as basic colored button ups, jean shorts and so on. Theres no reason to splurge on simple items. 2. Thrift stores are always the best place to look for preppy stuff on a budget. You can find anything from plaid skirts to preppy tee shirts to colorful button ups to lilly pulitzer knockoffs in thrift stores! Find statement peices at thrift stores and they will add a lot to your wardrobe. 3. Understand that preppy style doesn't mean you always wear preppy brands which can be very overpriced. Preppy style and preppy brands aren't nessicarily the same thing. 4. Look online at websites like shein and romwe! They have a lot of really good dupes and pre...

Dress Code Life Hacks

Image
Hello everyone! My name is Greta and welcome back to the Prepster! Today we are going to be talking about some life hacks to help you get away with dress code violations a little bit easier. My school has a standard dress code, no bra strap exposed, fingertip length skirts and shorts, two fingers for straps, and so on, so I'm for sure going to be using some of these life hacks. So please comment down below, follow my blog, follow me on instagram @afabulousstyle and tik tok @preppylifehacks and lets get started! 1. Good posture will raise your shoulders slightly, making your fingers higher up (which can help with the fingertip length skirt issue) so always walk around the halls with good posture. 2. If you want to wear leggings but your dress code forbids it, wear it with a really oversized sweater or cartigan that covers up to your mid thigh. People will be less angry. 3. If you want to wear a tie up top but your dress code won't allow it, where a cami under it and the...

Preppy Back To School Style Essentials

Image
Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog! Today we are going to be talking about preppy style essentials for back to school! I based a lot of these off the uniform preppy style which is often very popular amoung prepsters during back to school, but in general these are things all prepsters should have and wear going back to school! Please comment down below, follow my blog, follow me on instagram @afabulousstyle and lets get started! A GOOD PAIR OF OXFORDS: At least one high quality pair of oxfords is essential for prepsters when going back to school. The oxford shoe is so timeless and classic preppy and perfect for school, as it mimics some school uniform shoes but is still very stylish. I love oxfords with a bit of a heel, but flat oxfords work as well! BUTTON UPS: There are so many looks you can do with button ups! Add a blazer, some jeans and some oxfords and boom, a simple and stylish preppy look. Add a sweater, some fake glasses, some oxfords and a pleated skirt and you ...

How To Prepare For Back To School

Image
Hello everyone! My name is Greta and today we are going to be talking about how to prepare for back to school because it can be hard to know what to do to mentally and physically prepare! So please comment down below, follow my blog for more classic preppy vintage content, follow me on instagram @afabulousstyle and lets just get started! 1 or 2 weeks before: @ I know everyone probably already tells you this, but like a week before school starts start getting into the habit of going to bed earlier. Maybe try like 1/2 an hour every day and eventually you'll be ready to go to bed by like 10, which is a good time to go to bed if you have to wake up at 6 am like I do. You should practice waking up early on the last few days of summer, but don't worry about that too much! @ Get all your supplies and pack your back pack as soon as you can, that way you wont have to worry about it the night before school starts! @ Watch a ton of back to school videos on youtube @ Finish al...

How To Correctly Store Your Vintage Pieces

Image
Hello everyone! My name is Greta and my style can only be described as preppy vintage, so naurally I have a decent amount of vintage pieces in my closet. Today we are going to be talking about how to correctly store YOUR vintage pieces of clothing, so they aren't damaged or anything. So please follow my blog, comment down below, follow me on instagram  @afabulousstyle , and follow my life hacks account on tik tok @preppylifehacks! Lets get started! - Dresses: If you have the option, always store vintage pieces in dress bags, but If you can't then just hang them up. Padded hangers are the best option, wooden being the second best. Shirts and Skirts: Always hang up your skirts, shirts, blazers and sweaters up, no matter what. Again, cushioned hangers are best but wooden ones work too. Try not to use plastic skirt hangers that clamp down on the sides, either get wooden skirt hangers or regular hangers spread over. Shoes: The best way to store vintage shoes is keeping t...
