The Country Club Bunny



















I have always wanted a sequel to The Preppy Handbook, since the book was as short as it was spectacular, and I finally found just what I was looking for. From bow ties to boat shoes to antique books, blogger Bunny Tomerlin continues exactly where Lisa Birnbach left off.

While the text is sparse, Bunny has a serious eye for anything that instantly makes you feel like an Ivy League grad, country club prepster, and bona-fide WASP. All rolled into one monogram-, madras-, motif-loving yuppie.

Oh, and on top of all that, she is also a columnist for MensVogue.com. Unfortunately, Bunny has been noticeably absent for the past few months, so here's to hoping she'll resurface on the interweb, both on namesake blog and on mens.style.com, in light of Brother Vogue's folding.
