There seems to be a misconception on this post as to what prep is. A prep is someone who prides themselves in academic and athletic achievements. A prep has usually attended a prep school or is now attending a prestigious college. A prep is a young adult that appreciates tradition. A prep needs no further explaination as to what exeter or andover means/are? maybe even knows people there. A prep is usually simple/humble with no need to show off there wealth, because rich does not mean prep. A prep has good mannors.

Get the preps mug.girls/guys these days CARE WAY TOO MUCH ABOUT HOW THEY LOOK
especially those preppy girly girls who takes FOREVER to get ready in the morning just cause they need their hair to be perfect and the way they look
sadly, NO ONE CARES about what you think of yourself
honestly, it's ok to be a little obsessive over yourself, but just don't overdo it
another reason they're preps is that they pick on people who DRESS DIFFERENTLY FROM THEMSELVES
i mean, wtf what made you think you had a fucking chance at making fun of someone else
it's not like you're any better than they are and at least they're not sluts who's like "ew is that dirt in my nails?"
no boy would honestly date preppy girls even if they do they'll eventually BREAK UP WITH THEM because they'll realize how mean they are how sensitive they are
even if boys date those preppies well they're only the ones who're A JERK to even think about taking an interest into those girls

Get the preps mug.Related Words
prepster • prepsicle • preps. • preps and jocks • preps in black • Preps}, and [Chavs • prepsi • prepsta • prepsta fly • Prepstep
The word prep comes from the word preparatory, meaning a preparatory school. True preps are totally not mainstream and they have an original style. They wouldn't dare shop at Abercrombie, Hollister, Aeropostale, etc..
Rather, they shop at stores like J Crew, Polo Ralph Lauren, Vineyard Vines, Lilly Pullitzer, and Small Boutiques. They take pride in their academics and usually end up in an ivy-leauge college. Most preps are very athletic, well-groomed, and carry themselves well. Despite what others say on this website, Preps usually have one or a few extreme talents that they work on hard, and are usually very creative. They do come from money. However, It is usually old money that has been past down by generations of preps. Preps don't usually flaunt their money. They are very conservative. The basic definition of preps is- classy people who have an original style and carry themselves well.
I really have no clue where people get the idea that preps are mainstream.

Get the preps mug.Preps are people in american society (mainly girls) who wear and act the way the media wants them too. Most hard-core preps are seen listening to mainstream music played on the radio 20 times a day and wearing expensive brands like lilly, polo ralph lauren, vera bradley, lacoste, 7 jeans, Juicy couture, Nike shox, birkenstocks,UGGs,pink cashmere sweaters over polo shirts, Jcrew, and so many more that I can't name. Preps are the total opposite to punks, individuals who listen to indie music and shop at thrift stores.

Get the preps mug.The clique of kids that the poor or unpopular kids hate. The reason is because they were never accepted by the Preps and they were looked down on and never fit in with them either because of their social class or some awkward personality or characteristic.
