[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does "preppy" even mean these days ? Is there an agreed definition ?[/quote] I'm not sure but my kid sure seems to know. Ask your kid. [/quote] From an article online: According to Bark, an online monitoring company that tracks teenage slang, preppy is “used to refer to a particular aesthetic that involves girly, bright-colored clothes and popular name brands, such as Lululemon and Stanley. It’s very similar to the definition of preppy we grew up with, but slightly more refined and 'basic.'" Whereas the slang word “basic” describes someone perceived as “boring or a non-conforming person,” preppy conveys simplicity or predictability, according to Bark’s chief parenting officer Titania Jordan. “[b]Anything that’s idyllic, pleasant, curated or peaceful with an air of wealth[/b],” Jordan tells TODAY.com. [/quote] It sounds HORRIBLE! :)[/quote]
