With the start of the Spring 2023 season, it’s time to check out the latest and greatest fashion trends. This year, it looks like preppy style is making a comeback. Get ready to break out your blazers, cropped tops, jeans, and statement heels because this look is classic and easy to wear! Here’s what you need to know before you embrace the preppy trend.
The Basics of Preppy Style
At its core, preppy style is all about classic pieces paired together in an effortless way. Think white blazers, tweed crop tops, detailed denim jeans, and a statement heel. It’s all about proportion when pairing your cropped top with high-waisted jeans! This little tweed top from Abercrombie and Fitch was a pleasant surprise. The quality and cut were great and without breaking the bank you can try this cropped top with our favorite high-waisted jeans. Tucking in a long sleeve shirt can also be a great way to show off your waistline while still looking polished and put together.
Adding Colorful Accents
This season’s take on preppy style incorporates bright colors into an otherwise neutral look—think bright pops of red, emerald green, or sapphire blue. A few eye-catching accessories can really elevate your outfit from classic to modern as well.
Look For Less
This look that we shot while mom was in Los Angeles is surprisingly affordable. I challenge you to find a better quality blazer for the price! At $90.00 this Zara blazer comes in WAY less than most on the market right now. The same goes for the top and jeans. I’m not sure if you’ve had a chance to try & Other Stories’ denim but they are always a great fit. And the shoes! Let’s not forget about these incredibly comfortable and surprisingly cute Salina’s pumps.

Be Confident with Your Preppy Look
Wearing preppy style doesn’t have to mean getting stuck in the same old wardrobe rotation every day. Have fun with experimenting different combinations and don’t be afraid to mix patterns or textures for something unique. No matter how you choose to rock your preppy look in spring 2023, make sure that you feel confident wearing it—confidence is always fashionable!
Splurging A Little
The fabrication of this blazer from Banana Republic looks so luxe without compromising price or quality. Pairing the blazer with this great green tweed top from Le Superbe, takes it up another fun notch! THEN, because who doesn’t love more FUN, I paired it with the sailor jeans from Derek Lam 10 Crosby. The final pop comes from these very practical and ever-so-affordable ankle strap pumps that I found on DSW.
