Prep thyself

This summer, steal your fits from the guys sipping spritzes by the tennis court. Country-club membership very much not required.

Prep thyself

IT’S PARTY TIME, PEOPLE. After a year spent in sweats, we’re coming out of our cages and ready to live it the hell up. Since we’re celebrating, isn’t it high time you treated yourself to some of the finer things in life? Sip some Champagne. Spring for the shrimp cocktail. And when you’re getting dressed, go ahead and channel your inner lazy rich boy. You know who I’m talking about: the kid who’s home from [insert Ivy League institution here] for the summer and enjoying the fruits of his parents’ labor—and their country-club membership to boot. His values might leave something to be desired, but his wardrobe should be your new style inspiration.
