I don't know where most of the preps live, but in Virginia, where I live, there is a group of girls and guys that are preppy. They sit together at lunch. I am part of this group and this is what I have noticed. (We're not in to J.Crew yet cause we're just 8th graders)
-Hollister Co. is popular among the preps (just girls)
-Abercrombie was popular last year, but this year, its A&F
-Guys ALWAYS wear Ralph Lauren polos with their collars popped
-We all wear Adidas
-Girls have destroyed brown leather belts from Hollister (ribbons are SOOOOOOOOO out)
-Hair for girls is usually straightened or in a ponytail
-Hair for guys is just tousled
-Preps talk a lot of smack!!! I try not to. They make a lot of rumors up and are not so welcoming.
-They don't dress slutty, but act it.
-Parents usually work government jobs in D.C.
-We usually get food brought from outside of school for us
-WE GO SHOPPING EVERYDAY
-Select preps wear Lacoste (I have 4 polos from there)
-Select preps wear Tiffany charm bracelets
BE ANYTHING YOU WANT TO BE, JUST DONT TALK SMACK!
a preppy conversation at our lunch table
Tiffany: OMG! Vannesa is such a wannabe!
Annie: I know! What a slut!
Tiffany: You know David is going out with Hilary?
Annie: Seriously? Want to go shopping this Friday?
Tiffany: Hold on, let me call my mom and ask.

just because you are not rich and perfect like all the people that live in mansions in new york,
massachusettes, conneticut, and all the new england states..does not mean you are not a prep. not all preps can afford lily pullitzer, polo, lacoste, and all those high name brands. that doesnt mean they are poor it just means they cant afford that. abercrombie and fitch, hollister, american eagle, aeropostale, gap , old navy etc. are preppy stores...just not the reallly really preppy ones. preps are not snobby and think they are better than everyone else. just the other entries i read did sound like those are the kind of people they are. popping your collar in an a+f or hollister polo is preppy. your hair should be nicely styled and if you need make up to look pretty than that is fine.
girls or guys and rich or average people who like the prep style whether they wear a+f and hollister or lily pullitzer and polo.

A social label that says alot more about the person using it than the group it refers to. More crass, ill-informed tosh which "human" "mammalian" "adolescent" "air-breathing" "food-eaters" and "media-whores" use to segregate mankind ready for market research "targetting"
Hendrix asked what's a preppy, and Zappa replied its a way for people to be categorized stereotyped pigeonholed catalogued labelled filed trivialized dehumanized blinkered segregated descriminated conned deceived deluded duped and assimilated by banal corny tedious cloned alien misanthropists. Lame, said Hendrix. Agreed, said Zappa.

This is not exactly true and is very much a stereotype, but I will describe the preps I see in High School.
Guy Prep:
Body: Extremely thin, and tall. Tanned, with few or no visible skin imperfections. Veins and bones visible when arms move, but generally not that strong. Runs fast though.
Clothes: Usually wears well ironed Abercrombie shirts and dark Structure jeans with a brown belt, a brown wallet, brown boots, and boxers that are at least three inches out of their pants. Sometimes guys have a stud earring.
Hair: Gelled crew cut or spikes. Tips sometimes dyed or hair frosted.
Car: A pristinely clean, relatively fast, leather-endowed car (maybe an Accord Coupe).
Music: Rock(Godsmack), heavy metal(Metallica), death metal(Tool), and a little punk(Offspring).
Activities: Sneaking out, alcohol, sometimes racing, seeing movies, watching football games, playing football, buying clothes.
Girl Prep:
Body: Once again very lean, relatively tall for a girl, big-boobed, moderately sized hips, perfect skin.
Clothes: Usually wears tight, double-meaning Abercrombie shirts, hip-hugger jeans, double or triple pronged brown belts, platform sandals, earrings, tight-fitting small purse.
Hair: Long, shiny hair. Sometimes a bow or other decoration. Often, people think of preps as blondes, but there are probably more brunettes around me at least.
Car: Entry level coupe, Civic, RSX, Celica. Leather endowed and always clean, but not very fast or featured.
Music: Whatever the guys around them listen to.
Activities: Hanging around in big groups, meeting up at the mall, seeing movies, cheerleading, shopping with other female preps.
Unisex Prepiness:
Family: Stuck up, rich parents who are blissfully unaware of their children's activites.
Money: Lots of it.
Intelligence: Moderately to highly intelligent, but don't show it. Do OK in school, go to a good state/private university.
My older brother.

just cause i like punk rock but don't dress in complete black with kurt cobain t shirts i get called a prep. I dont wear my 'collar popped' and i never ever wear skirts. Im always in my ripped jeans and coverses, and i dont own any pink tops. I think the definition of preps is just beomming more complex each and each day. To be a prep all you have to do is stand around the shopping centre waiting for your bus in the arvo or giggle at soemthing that you would find funny. I think people need to stop calling each other preps, because to be honest how many of us have BMW's at 16? and wear a tonne of jewlery and get our nails done properly. Its so stupid
Dont have an example just that STOP CALLING PUNK ROCK PEOPLE PREPS, just cause we dont wear complete black and praise the devil

a prep is an arrigant person who thinks that they are the best in the world. a prep also had needs to make fun of others who aare different from them, exapmle, goth or outcasts. they may also enjoy calling punk people goth or others outcasts or losers. and they NEVER have a good come back. and when they say that they can kick ur bum they will usually say "not rigth now, or some other time"

Scum of the earth both culturally and intellectually-wise disguised with makeup and/or rich, trendy, overpriced clothes. Usually get good grades but don't exactly have all that much going on in their hollow heads. Also known as sheep, followers, lackeys, bandwagon members, etc. The TRUE AMERICAN - not a compliment either, ditzshits. Don't care about government, vote for guy with best hair, basically empty-headed with no clue as to what's going on around them, and will grow up to be fat, dowdy, frumpy middle-aged PTA housewives, gossipping in the beauty parlor about their once-handsome, airhead balding husband and the supposedly-scandolous lives of their neighbors. During youth, takes occasional trips to the girls' restroom in order to cry and weep about how their boyfriend dumped her just before they were about to sleep with her. People with as much emotional depth as Saddam Hussein and less intelligence, BUT... more vindictive.
*preps at a musuem* "Omigod, was Leonardo, like, Da Vinci related to Leonardo DiCaprio?"
"And, like, what's with Mona Lisa's dress? Like. Ew."
