Unabashedly Prep

Jackie

Culture

Known for her silk Hermes head scarves and dark, round sunglasses, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis nonchalantly embodies her fashion icon status wearing a prep staple interpreted in leather. Even incognito, Jackie retains her elegance and grace.

"Given their English provenance and their unisex, sturdy appeal, preppies claim the trench as our own." —Lisa Birnbach, True Prep

I just purchased my new set of wingtip oxfords from RL. They were on a decent sale and only my size left so I’m really happy. Now I need cedar shoe trees. What’s a good source for that, anyone?

Anyway I am a female. I do own bow ties, long ties, brogues, my dads Dobbs hat, and heeled wingtips. I am in love with menswear. Recently I started wearing my husbands sweaters and such. So glad I found this site which is all about my fave style. Now I have a name for it.

Absolutely classic. Does it get any better than this?

@F.E.- you’ve inspired me to throw up some female images on my blog. Thanks.

I love this look - it’s one that I rock regularly ... in fact my Twitter page has a silhouette of me with the exact same look, @kalynjohnson. It’s a timeless chic look. Viva Jackie O!

That leather trench is to die for.
