It’s time to take another look at the top 20 pieces of classic preppy decor. They’re not quite au courant, but that’s the point, isn’t it?
This blog post is part of a mini series on the Preppy Interior. There are several styles that embrace the term preppy. There is Southern Preppy which is associated with Palm Beach style popularized by the iconic Lily Pulitzer. There is also the newer Preppy Eclectic, classic lines and tailoring mixed with generous doses of color and fun, but restrained use of bold pattern. Then there is what I consider Ivy League Preppy, it's the style that originally coined the name because it was seen in the homes of many a prep school student. This post is dedicated to this style of Preppy interior. Ivy League Preppy is a hard style to nail down because it borders on English, American Colonial, and a few others as well. I grew up beside a house beautifully designed in this style. There is a certain feeling to it which started me on the road to my love of antiques. Ivy League Preppy is a term to describe an understated elegant lifestyle consisting of conservative choice of home decor and clothing that perennially stand the test of time from generation to generation. The Ivy League Preppy style of decorating is definitely not trend driven, but is classic and traditional .This style home will usually be a historic older home and the interiors will not look luxurious and "modern" rich but instead will look "well off" with the tasteful patina of old money. I have tried to find some images that come as close as possible to capturing the Authentic Ivy League Preppy decorating style. Hopefully these images will help you as you decorate in this style. You can add your own fresh take on these classics for a wonderful look. The next installment of this series will look at Eclectic Preppy interiors that adds a modern face to the classic appeal of this style. Stay tuned, post number three will feature Southern Preppy. alovelybeing.com The Ivy League Preppy home will be full of artwork and antiques.The interiors are not as decorated as much as they are curated with collections that have been gathered over the years.

Hello, dear friends. Wednesday evening was filled with laughter, great food, and lively conversation at my book club. It was hosted by a lovely lady at a charming antique home that was adorned with black shutters and a red door. Quintessential New England. I just texted my #2 to warn her that she is going to get slammed with snow. She informed me last night that the stomach flu has been running rampant through her college. Part of the reason for this is that the school is not doling out excused absences for illness this week. Can you imagine a worse combo - a blizzard, the flu, and a bunch of crazy college students? Ugh. Believe it or not, Boston is at the edge of the storm this time. I'm hoping that we don't have much because we have a party invite for Saturday evening with some very fun people. If I have to buy a sled with Chili and Chowdah leading it to get me there, I will. Chowdah & Chili in training. I dedicate this post to all my blog buddies who are facing a mother of a storm this weekend. Find a cozy corner and read a good book. Or tune into a good movie or if you need some exercise, binge watch a series. Bundle up and enjoy your free time. Now if you have small children or whiny teens - been there, done that - you have my deepest sympathy. Here are a few of my favorite books that I recommend for a snowbound weekend. Houzz Amazon Just finished this book, and positively adored it. Buzzfeed Amazon One of my all time faves. Warning: do not read without tissues. Buzzfeed Amazon Sequel to Me Before You and I liked it just as much. Amazon This book has a great story centering around a political family and glamorous women, just like me. Freshome Amazon Another one of my all time faves. Two of my book club buddies feel the same way. Amazon Darling story. Tmagazine Amazon A great story about a most lovable curmudgeon. BH&G Amazon Loads of twists and turns in this mystery. Pinterest Amazon A sweet story centering around an enchanting southern couple dealing with love and sacrifice. It is beautifully written by a fellow blogger, Kristy Woodson Harvey, from Design Chic. Pinterest Amazon Read this one in two sittings. It's no wonder I'm chunky curvy. New England Home Amazon If you're crazy about dogs and appreciate a good love story, this book is for you. Betsy Speert If you don't feel like reading, I highly recommend this award- winning series. Amazon Any recommendations for our snowbound friends? Until next time...
