That’s like some retro blog that could be from 2007?

Muffy?!? Really? Now that is a trashy, new money southern prep name.

I agree with this. J. Mac has some great pieces. It's just that they also sell old lady jackets.

+2 to all this. Their quality is fantastic as well.

So I googled J. Mac and nothing came up. Where is their website?

Oh, darling, if you have to ask . . .

You, darling, are an ass.

I think it was funny actually.

Yes, but in no way does that make them authentically NE prep. I hate to make this about class, but they’re LMC Rhode Islanders pretending to be a lot wealthier than they are. I wouldn’t be half so judgmental if they were just like, this is who we are, this is what we like. But they borrow all their props and don’t pay to stay at the locations where they shoot. It’s just so thirsty.

You can't be serious. This couple is not LMC. Their taste and aesthetic is clearly UMC+. I scrolled through their insta, and they were invited to Brooks Brothers 200th anniversary celebration. Regardless of their origins, their prep credentials are solid.

No. Their huckster credentials, however, are impeccable.

Yep. They're LMC Rhode Islanders. He never attended college at all, not even Community College. If he was a real UMC+ prep, he would DEFINITELY have attended four year college.

They went to public high school in Rhode Island. Public school to no college for him (and she went to Univ. of Rhode Island). They're just really good posers.

IMO, southern preppy ppl wear more dresses and skirts and are more style-driven; they also wear more brighter colors and (lily-type) patterns.

NE preppy is oriented towards cold weather so more pants (denim or khakis) and cable-knit sweaters. The color pallet is navy blue, hunter green and burgundy and neutrals that complement like camel. In summer they mix-in mid-blues and white.

Its basically the difference between Reese Witherspoon (in real life) and the style of the character her boyfriend dumped her for in Legally Blonde.

uhh... No. Not at all. Reese Witherspoon irl is definitely southern preppy, not New England preppy, but classier than the Georgia sorority girl look. Her character on legally blonde is a typical California rich ditz, who in no way encompasses or is demonstrative of preppiness. You are confusing wealth with preppiness.

PP meant Reese Witherspoon in real life is Southern prep and the Selma Blair character in Legally Blonde is NE preppy.

This is a guy who probably has never set foot on a boarding school campus or even the campus of Providence's private day schools (Wheeler, Lincoln), let alone an Ivy League Campus. Maybe one time he got lost in Providence and accidentally went onto the Brown Campus.

You’re so cute, PP! They pulled the wool over your eyes for sure. You are their target demographic.

No. That stuff is a mess.

The reason why it's so hard to find real NE prep (not that poser couple) is because real NE preppies a) dress really boring (and they don't have very big wardrobes in general) and b) wouldn't have a fashion insta.

Why? She is insane. Some men's style blog called her out for being the phony she is and she went insane. Muffy isn't her real name and she has an extremely working class background she tries to hide.

That blog is the poor person’s ideal of NE WASP
