    The model’s pretty eyes and smile got my attention.

    Wherever you happen to find these women, please let me know. Brilliant.

    I like it! It’s not your average prepster look. This look is more of a prep with an edge.

    I approve!

    I love how you expose the modern prep aesthetic in this photograph. I also like the way she used an actual rope as a makeshift belt to complement the nautical theme of her dress, and I might be getting a little jealous of your photography skills.

    Provided her personality matched that charming smile, she’d be more than welcome at my cabana. I don’t think black velvet holds up well in sun, sand or surf however.

    This young woman would look good in a potato sack. It may not be by the book snobbery, but it is definately inspired by being by the water.
    On the brand however, anyone with any clothing experience retail, buying, etc knows that the surf skate brands are the ones who push the edges, and the higher fasion world tailor and refine it. Love the photo.

    Love the shot FEC. The girl is gorgeous and the dress, while not necessarily “classically prep”, is fun and whimsical, two elements which are fundamentally preppy in my opinion.

    Photographing beautiful people all the time must be a tough job, she looks amazing, great job!

    Gorgeous. On a sidenote, I’m insanely jealous of your preppy spring break in Miami. :) Hope you guys have a great time FEC!
