Fashion Formula: Edgy Preppy!

JCrew exudes a new trend in dressing that I call "edgy preppy" - all the preppy aspects of styling are there (think: cardigans, layers, blazers, poplin) but with a wrench thrown in to the outfit in the form of something completely unexpected (think: sequins, tough jewelry, distressed denim).

Here I'll try and tackle the edgy preppy from one angle, however, the options are limitless and the more layers and unexpected details you can add, the better. With edgy preppy more = more.


Layer One: Embellished Top



Layer Two: Blazer/Cardigan
(choose one or two)


Bold Necklace
(choose one or two)


Distressed Denim
