[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is so funny b/c just this weekend my friend and I were in JC lamenting the quality, and frankly the style. [b]It's not preppy, it's a parody of preppy now. [/b] We are both pretty stylish but what is up with the crazy colors, and does everything have to be striped? JC used to be a place to get great cotton pullovers etc. Now I go to Nordstroms and Bloomingdales and hunt around. We were both remembering (and missing) that ubiquitous roll-neck turtleneck sweater that everyone used to have. I would love to buy a cotton one and a wool one, instead I have the option to buy a shrunken thin cardigan with electric blue and kelly green stripes. No thanks.[/quote] I'm not a particular J Crew fan, but you should be aware that the widespread resurgence of 1980s preppy *is* actually in parody, in keeping with the hipster-influenced "ironic" aesthetic that has gone very mainstream.
