Ralph Lauren as a brand is the epitome of American style. It's sophisticated, it's relaxed and it's a step up from your basic jeans and t-shirt. It was originally reserved for the Hamptons set back in the '60s when it started, but thanks to celebs like Taylor Swift, prep is cool again. Even if your style isn't exclusively preppy, everyone can use a pair of classic sunnies or cozy knit sweater.
