Kate Middleton has taught us that you can be trendy and preppy at the same time. It seems like a contradiction in terms, but if you take a page from Princess Kate’s play book you will see that it can be done effortlessly. Here, two trends are represented in a very subtle way. The ultra trendy dark green skinny jeans were purchased at T.J. Maxx for a steal of $7.00 (similar here). The ballet flats are on trend with rhinestones adding some understated bling (similar glitter flats here).
The stable preppy items are the Chanel Sunglasses (similar here), pearl necklace (similar here), J.Crew Navy cashmere sweater (similar here) , and pearl bracelet (similar here).
Just for fun throw on the Jewelmint Spellbound earrings and this faux blue leather jacket (similar here).
