Person who wears above listed brand names, but NOT Abercrombie and American Eagle unless they find a SERIOUSLY good catch. Someone who dresses pretty conservatively, NOT provacatively, and creates trends, DOESN'T follow them. Someone who spends a minimal amount of time on hair and makeup NOT someone who puts on 50 layers of foundation.
Preppy people are very multitalented and get hated for either: a. Being so "perfect" (even though no one is) b. Being fake by pretending they aren't good at things c. Being cocky by acknowledging that they're good at things d. Basically being blamed for the social retardedness of others as a venting tool e. Frustration that others can't use the "you're gonna pump my gas" argument because preps are actually smarter than them.
Things that get on a prep's nerves: a. people who wear Abercrombie and say they're preppy but aren't b. girls who pile on makeup and dress like sluts c. people who don't like them because they're preppy (how so you spell HYPOCRITE?!?) d. people who try to be preppy, don't quite hit the mark, and give preps a bad name
Preps generally do come from preparatory schools. That's where the name was generated from. However, some preps have been transported against their will to public schools where they continue to spread the word of true preppiness.
Preps are true friends and aren't concerned about being popular so much as they are concerned that people actually like them. Preps can actually have pretty delicate egos underneath and value true friends over everything.

A guy or girl who dresses perfectly without trying to. They appear to do everything well and with ease. They are frequently the descendants of "old" money and are very well off financially. Despite this, they don't need obsequious displays of wealth (i.e. wearing Versace) to convey that they are better off than everyone else. The usual clothing of choice is Lacoste, Ralph Lauren, Lilly, L.L. Bean, J. Press, and Brooks Brothers to name a few. Abercrombie & Fitch is *not* a preppy staple, as it has been co-opted by the nouveau and hoi polloi. Connecticut has more preppies per square mile than any other state (i should know, i was born and raised there, a child of privilege). The highest concentration of them are on Connecticut's "Gold Coast", Westport, Darien, New Canaan, with smaller yet densely clustered habitations in Madison, Clinton, Guilford, West Hartford, Glastonbury, Farmington, Avon, Old Saybrook and Stonington. No, East Lyme isn't preppy, they're poseurs, simply nouveau riche trash flaunting daddy's hard-earned money. Preppies aren't snobs, per se, they simply don't wish to waste their intellect and humor on a lesser being, hence the popular notion of their being snobs. They simply have their style, mannerisms, codified behavior and traditions. One cannot be a preppy unless you are born into this station in life. Don't worry poseurs; they real preps can see through your pretenses, false as they are. They vacation in places not likely to be frequented by trash or nouveau riches, so they revel in places such as Martha's Vineyard, Block Island, Fisher's Island, Hilton Head Island and Sanibel Island. To the trained eye, once can identify a Connecticut preppie immediately. Because, quite simply, Connecticut preps are top shelf. It's key.
The place: The Caribe Hilton, San Juan Puerto Rico.
The date: Christmas Eve, 2004
The scene: the bar/club at the Caribe Hilton. A large group, a family walks into the club, ages ranging from early teens to adults in their 50's. They are all clad in pastels, khakis, collars popped up, the Polo horse insignia emblazoned on all of their shirts, no noticeable makeup on the females, conservative hair styles for the males and females, they all have a healthy glow to their perfect caucasian complexions. They sit at a table and appear to enjoy themselves immensely. Theirs is a clubby, exclusive circle that cannot be penetrated or imitated by wannabees or other covetous outsiders. An onlooker in the club turns to his wife and comments: "Where are THEY from?" His wife replys, matter of factly, "From Connecticut, dear, can't you tell?"

Variant of preppy used as an insult or derogatory term. Typically a arrogant and/or wealthy member of the lucky sperm club who feel they're "better than you" in every way. They're also known to be native to northern states, schools, and universities such as Yale. The opposite of trailer-trash, hicks, red-necks, and the average joe. Zack Morris from saved by the bell is a good fictional example of a preppie, while A.C. Slater was more of a Jock, Kelly was an air head, and Screech was a geek.. etc.. etc.. etc.. (Also see preppy, prep, yuppie, and George W. Bush.)
-That damn preppies never worked a day of hard labor in his life and hes got himself a $80,000 dollar Mercedes-Benz while I bust my ass at the factory everyday and can hardly afford a $500 dollar Ford Pinto!
-Damnit preppie there aint nothing wrong with denim jeans why you always wearing those kackie pants!?

To find out if somebody is a true prep they must have these qualities-

2. live in places such as nyc,palm beach,virginia,kentucky,pennsylvania,mass., and conneticut and some rich areas of texas.
3. summer- on the coast of maine,fishers island, or any foreign country...the hamptons, cape cod and nantucket have become too new money and are no longer prep.
4.preps wear gucci loafers,barbour jackets,wear pearls, tiffanys jewelry,wear ribbon belts, rainbow flip flops or any flip flops,wear lacoste or lilly, rl polo has become too cheap, wear j-crew pants, rl cable knit sweaters,ribbons in their hair,not veyr much makeup,jack rogers shoes, and wear sevens or citizens jeans.
5. preps do not go to malls and if they do the only place they hit is saks, neimans or nords (those are last resort) and always hit bendels and bergs and c-orrico
6.preps ALWAYS attend boarding schools such at foxcroft,deerfield,miss porters,middlesex,taft,hotchkiss,episcopal,kent, or saint pauls.

What is up with all these really long definitions dissing preps???? This is wrong! All these people who define preps as stupid, annoying, A&F and A&E wearing snobs are totally WRONG!!!! Preps are smart and nice and if you didn't know that, you've proably never meta real prep before or you're just jealous of us! FYI real preps do not wear AF, AE and Hollister. We tend to go for more classic, conservative stores and we do not wear Miss.Sixty jeans!! Holy shit! All you people that think have obviously never seen or met a REAL Prep!!
Buffy:Hey, Muffy! What's going on with you today?
Muffy: Nothing much. I'm just studying for the Math exam tomorrow.
Buffy: Good for you! I'm just about ready to go shopping at J.Crew.
Muffy: Ok, well, see you later!

Prep breeding grounds are Virginia, Connecticut and New England. We attended the best prep schools from Groton, Exeter, Andover, Hotchkiss, Country Day, Horace Mann, and Dalton. We do not wear American Eagle, Hollister or Abercrombie nor do we wear Old Navy. True preps are graced in Lacoste pique polos - the trusty alligator is always worn with the collar popped, Lilly Pulitzer kelly green and pink, Nantucket Reds, Brooks Brothers, J Crew, LL Bean boat shoes, and grossgrain ribbon watches/belts/head bands. We tuck in our shirts, we layer, we wear madras shirts, loafers without socks, and we are seldom seen without something that is monogrammed or tastefully engraved. We fence, sail, play rugby, build our character thrugh crew, hit the links and we can be found practicing our backhands and smashes. We tailgate and we go to ivy league schools or top LACs. We all have a nickname like Muffy or Bunny. You hate us because we are better than you.
"Gee Snoop, look how co-ordinated those preppies are"
"Fo' shizzle my nizzle"
"That's right Snoop, I went to a New England Prep School...BITCH"
