What is Preppy Aesthetic
You may love our cute preppy coloring pages but are you still wondering, 'what does preppy aesthetic even mean??' The preppy aesthetic is a throwback to the late 90s and Y2K fashion that is reminiscent of the clothing worn by students in Northeast preparatory schools and universities. Students at preparatory high schools are usually required to wear a uniform consisting of blazers, plaid skirts, ties, or sweaters with school crests. All of these fashion pieces entered mainstream fashion to form the cute preppy aesthetic.
Preppy aesthetic can also mean the way that someone speaks, the vocabulary that they use, their mannerisms, etiquette, or fashion - all associated with an upper-class upbringing. East Coast Prep is associated with the coastal northern United States and has many nautical elements like anchors, whales, compasses, and lighthouses. All reminiscent of summers at the beach or on islands like Nantucket. Southern Prep is associated with brighter colors and bolder prints like zebras, cowboy boots, palm trees, and tropical flowers. Monograms also feature prominently in the preppy aesthetic. Monogrammed towels, notebooks, hats, shirts - all of these make up the cute preppy aesthetic.
