Preppy Penny

Preppy never goes out of style and the perfect penny loafer is absolutely tomboy chic and can be worn with anything.  I am oh so excited about what this fall has in store and a penny loafer is one accessory we can all start wearing now - yes in August.  To start working the penny into your summer looks, try pairing it with a dark skinny jean and a button down shirt, or for a more feminine look substitute the button down for a lace top.  I love the contrast of a girly top against a skinny jean and an ultra tomboy flat.  Of course accessorize with pearls or a crystal necklace and or bracelet and you're ready to hit the streets.  The loafer can be worn numerous ways.  Below are several of my favorite flats and a few photos of fashion icons Kate Moss and Brigitte Bardot for inspiration.


  1. Tory Burch - Penny Loafer
  2. Fendi - Kelly Green Loafer
  3. Cole Haan - Air Penny Driver Moccasin
  4. Audrey Brooke - Penny Loafer
  5. Peter Millar - Blue Suede Driving Shoe
  6. Elizabeth & James - Embossed Snake Skin Penny
Kate Moss as a different take on the loafer look, which is equally as fabulous and can easily be worn to work.

Style icon Brigitte Bardot, has a classic take on the loafer, which I love, paired with knee highs.
