[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So many of the NYC kids who attend Dalton, Collegiate, Trinity, H.Mann, Spence etc are absolute ANTI-preps.  Don’t own a thing that is preppy, would never be caught dead at Murray’s and think Shep and Ian are tools.  “Preppy” is not just old money or old NE money it’s old money plus a lifestyle.

The folks that live in NYC, shop at the Beretta Gallery and have horses in two or three states, are another story.  [/quote]

Of course. Not everyone who went to those schools is preppy, but in order to really be preppy, you have to have gone to a school like that.[/quote]

No, you do not.  You have a false notion of the concept and are adding silly add ons. [/quote]

I agree.  The “preppiest” person I have ever known grew up on the Main Line in Philly.  Think Lewis Winthrop times 500. [/quote]

Are they actually wealthy with old money, or do they just like to golf and wear polo shirts? [/quote]

The person comes from an old family with lots of money by old family standards.  But it’s far beyond that that makes them preppy which some here don’t seem to understand.  [/quote]

So then what is it in your book — riding horses and wearing Vineyard Vines?[/quote]
