A Few Outfits: Preppy, Ivy, Trad, or Americana?

Irish Fisherman Sweater

Since my last post did not touch on clothing or style, I thought that I would include a few images of what I have wore in the not so distant past. Some of these looks fall into one or more of the genres that are often referred to as Preppy, Ivy, Trad and Americana. If you follow any of the other style blogs or forums out there I am sure that have heard these terms before and the heated arguments that they inspire. I personally do not take them that seriously, but I do look forward to discussing them in future posts. If I were to describe my personal style, I would define it as being  traditionally American with a strong focus on the simple, classic, and boring.
