Gwyneth is one of our times greatest style icons and the modern preppy style is what she does best. Another obvious style icon who was there and actually created the preppy image is of course the lovely Grace Kelly. Her ability to match timeless pieces and classic items has made her one of our times greatest fashion inspirations.

A more contemporary style icon, worthy of representing the preppy style, is the star Blake Lively, perhaps mostly known for her role as Serena in the TV-series Gossip Girl. Blake is a master of styling unexpected combinations. A classic shirt matched with a glittery skirt and the look is so much more exciting. A white shirt and a pair of dressed shorts Blake pairs just brilliantly with a sequin blazer and voilà - there's a real show stopper.
