Proving that Prep is still Cool: 4 Prep-inspired Blogs to Follow

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Skidmore chapter.

1. The College Prepster: http://www.thecollegeprepster.com/

 

Carly Heitlinger, an alum of Georgetown University and fellow coxswain, writes this incredibly adorable and informative blog for girls (and boys!) college aged and up. Her posts include outfit ideas, DIYs, current favorites, and advice. Whenever I am in a pickle, I wonder WWCD (what would carly do), and check her blog. If ever you’re in need of a good gift to get your boyfriend, or, you are just feeling lost in the world, chances are, Carly has a post about it.

2. The Scalloped Edge: http://thescallopededgeblog.blogspot.com/

 

Victoria is a current student at Johns Hopkins University, and her posts include everything from dorm-room inspo to tips for staying healthy in college. Victoria has actually done a collaboration with the Her Campus Blogger Network along with many other companies. Victoria also does a series of posts called “Prep for Less,” where she provides alternatives to usually expensive pieces and puts together adorable outfits and sometimes even adds in promotion codes for really adorable clothes. Another favorite is her “Do’s and Dont’s” column, where she lists recommendations for things such as “roommate living.” I highly recommend Victoria’s blog if you’re looking for any type of inspiration.

 

3. Classy Girls Wear Pearls: http://www.classygirlswearpearls.com/

 

 

Sarah Vickers has been one of my favorite bloggers for about 3 years. Not only does she have grade A style, but, her and her (new!) husband, Kiel, are ultimate couple goals. Sarah’s style is timeless and classic. If you’re looking to retire your sweats and invest in a more put together look, Sarah has you covered. I would say her posts are geared toward an older (and not so student-budget limited) demographic, but if you don’t know what to ask for on Christmas or your birthday, Sarah’s beautiful outfits provide endless inspiration. She runs a company with her husband called Kiel James Patrick, and their products are absolutely to die for. Check out her instagram for even more drool-worthy shots — @sarahkjp

4. Yep It’s Prep: http://www.yepitsprep.com/

 

Isabella, a junior at Rollins College, has a very unique style. Unlike the previously mentioned bloggers, Isabella’s style is a little bit more casual. However, her look remains timeless and put together. Isabella’s blog is centered mostly around fashion, but she will occasionally throw in a fun post like, “How to Improve Your Instagram.” I recommend this blog to college-aged students who want to dress better, but don’t necessarilly want to wake up an hour earlier than they have to.
