Loving the 80"s -Preppy Style



Lately I have been doing a lot of reminiscing about days gone by and as I visit the various blogs I follow, I find myself missing the 80's so much! I miss my big rolled hair, my preppy school wardrobe with everything monogrammed, my penny loafers(which I still have complete with the penny I put in them the day I got them), my Tretorn tennis shoes with the different colored/printed sides and backs(loved my madras ones), my add-a-beads, my whale sweater, my walking shorts and knee socks, wearing my sorority letters, my button down shirts, and my Izod shirts, Oh how I could go on and on!! I am going straight to the attic and dig out my Preppy Handbook! Visiting with my new blog friends, I have seen that preppy is still in and I am going to come out of the preppy closet and flaunt my preppiness everywhere!!Yesterday I started by buying the cutest pink/navy madras skirt and pink cable knit cardigan from Target and today I am going to order a pair of Tretorn Tennis shoes (They are hard to find nowadays but I think Land's End has some and with Google nothing is impossible to find!) I can not even describe how comfortable those shoes are not to mention how cute and preppy!! So here's to being preppy and not being ashamed about it!!!
