Preppy Style & Grand Millennial Home with The Pink Chickadee
What Is Preppy Style? Preppy style originates from the typically wealthy preparatory schools and Ivy League campuses of the 1920s-1950s Northeastern United States. Influenced by traditional English, all-things nautical, and collegiate sportswear, preppy style is rooted in tradition while embracing the trends of today – all with a classic spin. Today, several well-known fashion brands are rooted in preppy style – a style that proudly honors timeless traditions while embracing the eras of today.
What Is Grand Millennial Style? Grand Millennial style (ages 20-45) is a recently established design trend by millennials and GenZers that revives the vintage, traditional, and maximalist home decor elements of the past while incorporating home design elements of today. Think: antiques, floral wallpaper, ruffles, and ginger jars. Grand Millennial style goes hand-in-hand with preppy style, as both are rooted in timeless tradition to honor and preserve the past while incorporating the trends and times of today.
An authentic + curated approach to preppy + grand millennial everyday style, seasoning dressing, thoughtful home decor, and hosting with intention.
