If you go to schools like Harvard, Yale, Stanford etc. you literally have unlimited access to the "American" preppy lifestyle. African Americans seeking higher education at places like the aforementioned schools don't have the custom made blazers, polos, ties, or even crests that their white counterparts seem to afford. So as we delve into the discussion of "The Black Ivy League" a consideration for the oldest schools set aside to contribute to African American education. If we want to be considered ivy league, we need to start dressing the part. I've talked to girls at Spelman that seem to think the uniform at Morehouse is Sperry's, khakis, and a polo, we need to start branching off a little more into that sophisticated, colorful, stylish yet classic, prep look. Living in ATL where the locals are already #poloshawty it helps to differentiate yourself slightly through clothes that fit properly, are well coordinated and put together.
Somethings got to give...
