In this post, I thought I would show you, how I added some of the key trends this season, to achieve the preppy look that was seen on the SS 2014 catwalk. In shows such as Rag & Bone, J Crew and Burberry.
Trousers : Navy and white, flat front printed trousers from Marisota – £37
Top : Yellow cami top, tucked into the trousers, for a cleaner look, also from Marisota – £16
Jacket : Marisota Navy blazer, with striped lining. Wear with trousers, or skinny jeans – £50
The trouser, are not only flattering, they are so comfortable to wear. They finish higher up on the waist, and are flat fronted making them look great with a top tucked into them. The navy blazer could be used in so many ways, a great piece for your wardrobe this spring. The spring yellow cami is perfect for the summer too, teamed with a maxi skirt.
Shoes : Hotter Carly brogues, leather lace ups with cut outs – £49
Bag : Gold metallic satchel from Zatchels – starting from £109
Necklace and earrings : Chambers and Beau
What do you think, have I achieved a preppy look?
The trousers, top and jacket were sent to me and are PR Samples.

LOVE those trousers! Might have to get some (unless you’re planning on wearing them to Britmums – we’d look like twins!)
And HOW CUTE is your dog??!
Amanda Cottingham says
So pleased you like them, I spotted on twitter you’d bought them. Must remember not to pack them for Britmums.

Penny says
You look so stylish. I love the necklace and the trousers. I used to wear trousers like this so much more, don’t know why I got afraid of pattern, they are so comfy and stylish!
Amanda Cottingham says
*Whispers* there are no fastenings, and the back is elasticated. Soooo comfy!
Emma says
You look fantastic! I am totally rubbish at putting outfits together. I need s stylist!
Rebecca says
That’s lovely. I never go for patterned trousers but the way you’ve styled them is really great. Such a fresh Spring look.
Jennifer says
That’s a great look, I would have no idea how to put together an outfit like that! I really like the blazer, I’m someone that always wears a coat or jacket when I go out, and that one is a lot smarter and more stylish than the one that I usually throw on!
Donna says
Its a great look!
Loving how you have acessorised it x
Mary Keynko says
You look lovely! I love the splash of yellow with the blue and white, and of course love the shoes! My daughter lives and dies in her Carly brogues.
