I was voted Class Prep in high school because I was obsessed with Abercrombie’s soft khakis in allll the colors (it was the late 90s) and once went the entire school year without ever wearing jeans. Not once. But now I literally can’t imagine wearing khakis (seriously, how did I do that for a full year??) and my wardrobe relies heavily on denim of all kinds. So when we were discussing featuring some preppier style, I immediately turned to my favorite resource for all things preppy: J. Crew. I loved this gingham button up and took a cue from their pattern mixing and added leopard print heels for fun. Gingham is everywhere right now and I rounded up some of my favorites for you below.
Wearing:
J. Crew Boy Shirt in Crinkle Gingham (in classic navy, size 0 . . . available in multiple colors and regular, petite and tall sizing)
J. Crew Toothpick Skinny Jeans (available in a ton of colors and regular, petite and tall sizes – I’m wearing a 29 Petite) similar from J. Crew Factory
Heels: Similar leopard print here, but with a much more walking-friendly heel and ankle strap! I love the print.

Hey Scotti! Any jean shorts recommendations? I think we have a very similar body shape, and I can’t ever find jean shorts that work!
