Blazers, button ups, slacks and plaid are popular in preppy wear. Bohemian/Cottage-Core Boho and cottage-core aesthetics use earthy, neutral tones as its color scheme. The one difference between the two is bohemian style sometimes has tie dye, flared pants and other “hippie” elements to its aesthetic. While cottage-core has a frilly, girly style.

Types of clothing include: bandeau/wrap tops, mom/boyfriend jeans, air force ones and lots of jewelry. The “Insta Baddie” fashion can sometime be viewed as a trendier style.
