The preppy sheek look is back and it is most definitely a great look for Christmas.  Think cute knee-high socks, knitted tights, boyfriend cardigans, designer backpacks and an assortment of must-have jackets!

The high street brand Zara has recently released a super signature look for winter in the shape of a neat parka jacket.  It’s boxy shape will most definitely look super svelte with all those preppy pleats and loafers.

Priced at just £99, it is certainly in your winter coat budget!  Well at least if you only intend to purchase the one this season!

Loafers are a great look for this season and tie into the preppy trend extremely well.  not only do they update the look and bring it into this season, they are super comfy to walk in!

Choose from a range of styles, this season certainly seems to be working the animal print style!  Such a print will work to bring an otherwise low-key preppy look to life!  And if you are actually still in uniform, you will become the bell of the playground in no time!

Another great way to work the preppy look into ideal winter wear is to invest in a pair of cutesy boy trousers such as chinos with braces.  Wear with ballet pumps to add a girly edge, a cute simple tee complete with a quirky illustration and a fitted blazer.  This will tie the whole look together!

The preppy look is a great look for daytime with the girls, a study date or a chilled early evening meal.  It can however be dressed up with uber high heels and a fitted waistcoat in an embellished fabric. Pile your hair high on your head and party the night away!
