So on Instagram, I asked y'all to ask me questions, so that I could write a Question and Answer post! I am just going to list out the question and answer it to the best of my ability. I hope that y'all enjoy this post:)
1. Who inspired your preppy style? {Question from +lillypulitzer ck}
One of my friends showed me a Vineyard Vines catalog, and it kind of took off from there...
2. What is your favorite Lilly Pulitzer item? {Question from +Lauren C}
My agenda. It is in the print Let's Cha Cha, and it has my monogram on the back!

I love the classic rosette necklace. I know they don't sell it anymore, but it will always be a favorite.
5. About how many bows do you have? {Question from +Pinkpearlsandpulitzer}
I own about 12-15 bows. I often misplace them, so I'm not quite sure how many I own. The majority of my bows are from @bowsandkites and @southernlycharmed on instagram.
6. When did you begin your preppy style? {Question from +ThePinkandGreenPrep}
Not too long ago. Maybe early last year... Before then, I didn't care about what I wore or what I looked like as much. I guess, as I got older, I saw the fashion, and I was inspired.

Riding boots, Sperries, nude flats, a rosette necklace, large sparkly necklace, pearls, bows, monogrammed hats, scarves... I have many others, but I don't want to write a paragraph on them right now. Look for a future post to further answer this question.
