prep

Me, someone who hails from the Northeast, New England's even better, sails or rides, makes friends easily and is well informed and able to speak intelligently on any number of subjects. Someone who plans on going to college, and who's family has before them. Preps like to drink alcohol in mass quantities, but only beer from bottles. Our first name is either A) an ancestral last name, or B) also the name of a great many British Royals While we do wear Abercrombie and Fitch (our great grand parents did too) we don't identify ourselves with it and wouldn't be caught dead with their logo splashed across our chest. We opt for more conservative looks, like those of Ralph Lauren, J. Crew and Lacoste. We love F. Scott Fitzgerald and secretly believe that we're Jay Gatsby.

That kid's so not preppy, he goes to community college and doesn't know a sail from his left ass cheek.

prep

As for the slang, it's used to define people who are chic/elegant, but not extravagant or yuppie in any aspects. It comes from the term "prep school", or "preparatory school", prolly because people use to assume that members of that kinda school are both educationally and monetarily wealthy. It's also used to define groups, such as clicks and nationalities.

1.Josh: The new dude is such a prep... John: He must be so fucking rich. 2.Italians, French, Brazilians and Argentinians are like the preppiest people on Earth.
