Ralph Lauren and Prep cool

With shows like Gossip Girl being all the rage , The prep school look of course makes it’s way to the fashion world with Ralph Lauren as one of its major well suited ambassadors.

I have always had an intense admiration for the RL  label’s styling and merchandising.They should be called branding 101. I remember visiting their headquarters  in NYC and seeing plaid walls,leather chairs dim lighting even the  freebie M&M’s were color coordinated, their store same thing, even the maintenance guy is  hosing the store front sporting a branded Polo and rainboots. For fall the uniform  schoolgirl look is an option,although  for yours truly  who had to rock a tie and pleated skirt for pretty much all her teens,I can only think of one option where I might revisit the school girl… ; )
