I loved this slideshow of author Stephanie LaCava's favorite New York haunts. I totally nodded my head when she said, "I sort of always wear the same things, though in different ways." Isn't that the definition of classic style?! Some of her outfits were a little edgier than my go-to looks but this one stopped me in my tracks:
Comfy sweater for winter warmth? Check. Skinny jeans and killer heels? Check, check. But it's the classic tote that gets me. Preppy can be completely modern and this look is proof. Just don't be surprised when you see me in ten different versions of it these next few months ;)

I've been putting off getting one of those bags for a year now! They are just so useful, I don't know what's stopping me?!
ahh perfect- I can take out the one I have from high school and make it useful again :)

Adorable! Sadly, my beloved Land's End tote of 5 or 6 years has seen better days...from what I've observed, the ones from L.L. Bean are similarly priced and seem much more durable--they literally feel like sailcloth, probably because that's what they're made of!
I love this look! Totally recreating :-)
I love this look so much, it's definitely one I use on a daily basis. xo, Maria
Ahhhh, dog in a bag! I died :)

I've had my eye on those booties for a while...!
My go to winter look is similar - skinny jeans, the world's most comfortable motorcycle boots, big sweater, fun scarf.
Some may call it lazy, I call it a uniform.
Loving this look. I completely agree about having go to looks that simply need jewels, heels and a classic bag to top it all off!
Oooh, I love this! You're so right, there are way more interpretations of preppy than people often think, and this is the perfect example!
Big sweaters and skinny jeans are definitely a go-to for me, but adding some killer heels makes for such a chic update!!

The tote definitely adds an unexpected touch and gives it a more casual vibe- I love that!!
It's for sure the definition of classic style!! I do the same thing, although, I need to work on changing up my pants :)
