Okay, truepreppy people DO NOT shop at Abercrombie, Hollister, AE, etc.. True preps buy their clothes from Lacoste, J. Crew, Ralph Lauren, Lilly, SperryTop-Sider, etc. Classic styles include polo shirts, ribbons, polka dots, pink and green, pearls, classic nautical, and seersucker styles. Preppy people DO NOT say things such as "like, totally, omigawd", they are classier than that. Preppy clothing is just classic, put together pieces that will never go out of styles.

Snobby stuck up jerks that think they're better than everyone else. Wear tight fitting clothes that show everything. Wear 50 million gallons of bright caked on make up everyday. Only accept theyre friends and no one else. Love boys. Thinks everything that they dont like is immature and will tell you to grow up and get a life. Do not know how to have fun. Theyre hair has to be perfectly styled everyday or else they throw a fit until theyre mommy and daddy give them theyre weay as always. If your fat your not a prep. Will usually complain how suckish theyre life is when its great. Acts like they love everyone but theyre BACKSTABBERS!

Hmmm... where to start? Contrary to most people's beliefs, it IS appropriate for a preppy person to wear Abercrombie or Abercrombie & Fitch. It's just the skin tight or slutty clothes from there are not acceptable. The wear 7 For All Mankind jeans, UGG boots, Lilly Pulitzer, Burberry, ABERCROMBIE (Oh yes they do. Or at least in Potomac, Maryland, which is one of the preppiest towns in America, they do), Ralph Lauren, J. Crew, Lacoste, and usually carry bags from Coach, Gucci, Prada, Louis Vuitton and various designers, including the favorite, Vera Bradley. The Tiffany & Co. heart braclet and necklace are necessary, and flip-flops are frequently worn. In winter, it is not uncommon to see a North Face sweatshirt, or waspy, bright prints. Usually seen with a pair of Chanel sunglasses. Very conservative in style and rich. Most steer far from Juicy Cotoure, as it gives off more slutty vibes.
Kendall looked totally preppy in her Lacoste polo and Lilly Pulitzer skirt, with her pink and green stripe C.K. Bradley flip-flops. And her Tiffany necklace completed it.

Preppy, also spelled, "Preppie," originally just meant someone who went to a prep school and got a good education. Now it is typically used very differently.
Someone labelled as a preppy (or preppie) is usually a youth, most likely middle-class or above, who wears brand-name clothes like Abercrombie & Fitch, listens to the popular music, hangs with the popular people, does reasonably well in school, and fits in well. There are many traits that people would call preppy, such as wearing polo shirts with the collar popped.
The word evolved from the term, "Yuppie," which stood for, "Young Urban Professional." Some Preppies are children of Yuppies.
While this of course can't be said for all people labelled, "Preppy," they are often critized for their excessive consumerism and conformity. While usually not rude to less popular kids, they tend to exclude. Some might thoerize that, from a psychological point of view, they rely on the latest clothes, music, and sometimes cars for self-esteem and that they use these items to define themselves and find meaning in their lives. But despite the time, money, and effort they spend to enhance their personal appearance and stand out among their peers, in the end they often seem indifferent to each other.
Past their clean exteriors, it isn't unknown for them to be heavy users of drugs and alchohol, and to have permiscuous sex; But this doesn't in any way mean that all of them, or even most of them, are like this.

"There is an idea of a Preppie; some kind of abstraction. But there is no real Preppie: only an entity, something illusory. And though you can shake their hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense your lifestyles are probably comparable... they simply aren't there."
"He's cool, but he's too preppy, always wearing Abercrombie and stuff like that, you know?"

You are a douchebag whose job is to wear nice clothes, and you attend an ivy league school on the side. You probably went to an expensive private high school. Your mom is probably skinny and blonde and your dad is a doctor or he works in insurance or something. Your parents think that they are the ultimate judge of everything and everyone. You personally believe that you are better than anyone, and you generally refuse to talk to anyone who isn't exactly like you.
