    c’mon gang. ripped lace nylons? see-through pirate-esque sleeves? it’s nothing personal - I don’t know Emily and she’s certainly an attractive woman, but this look isn’t preppy, classic, trad, chic, or otherwise. it’s an odd-mish mash that appears dated, slightly goth, and sloppily executed. if folks are gonna have their pics posted on a public blog, they (and their friends) need to be able to absorb objective criticism.

    Hey - I still like the outfit and I like her…just don’t think it’s preppy. Certainly not trashy. Always appreciate the pictures of the lovely women…

    i love love love this. nice to finally see a girl with enough courage to rock an original look. you two beat hoes need to drop back the hatred and stop eating ice cream so you can fit into a look this chic. over and out.

    @Openzedoor—I assume only Emily knows whether the tear is intentional. What I know is that despite the tear/imperfection, she’s still wearing them, loving them (isn’t tossing them in the garbage bin). Now that is preppy.

    Are you sure the hose tear is intentional? Mind you, I guess the best style is always the non-contrived.

    Nice look, but quite harsh for daylight.

    HOT.  Not trashy.  Sorry.  Although not preppy…it’s not a bad thing.  FEC likes the look enough to photograph it.  It’s his blog…plain and simple.  We can only see so much bow tie and oxford.  Thanks Fred.

    This blog was started in order to pay homage to prep trad while expanding its visual landscape. I believe this look alludes to that. It’s sophisticated yet still casual. The small tear in her hose above her knee is endearing…it shows nonchalance.

    She is very cute I can date her, but she isn’t preppy at all.

    She is cute but the look fails.

    Her whole ensemble is too Bohemian chic for my taste. I’m going to go out on a limb and say that one of her style icons must be Stevie Nicks.

    Not sure it’s prep…still like the lace tights…glad the women are back.
