Designers such as Tommy Hilfiger, J. Crew and Ralph Lauren may be the essence of this trend, but no need to worry — you don’t have to be an Upper East Sider or attend some prestigious private prep school to get in on this look.

Whether you’re still in college or a dedicated woman of the workforce, a cashmere cable knit sweater, $228, is a classy prep must-have. For a more college-friendly school girl-esque vibe, pair your sweater with a pleated plaid skirt, some neutral tights and Mary Janes to match. To achieve a look that’s a bit more updated and on point for fall, choose a flirty skirt in a bold, bright hue that will seamlessly complement your cable knit.
Chanel, Marc Jacobs, Yves Saint Laurent anyone? No matter what your style, we think every woman should invest in a chic, timeless tote to last throughout the course of her years. For the classy prep gal specifically, we suggest this sophisticated and strikingly elegant Classic Q Francesca Tote Bag, $448, by MARC by Marc Jacobs. It’s the perfect accessory to polish off your look. We think Blair Waldorf would definitely approve.
The key to pulling off classy prep is all in the details. Our favorite way to accomplish this is by looking for classic, preppy accessories, such as high heels or a headband, that incorporate girly embellishments, such as bows. To get the look, try a cute polka dot headband, $20, like this pastel pink one we’re obsessing over from Topshop.
There’s no right or wrong way to rock the classy prep trend. But whatever you ultimately decide on, make it your own and sport it with grace, confidence and class. We love the unique styling and modern twist this belted Nanushka tennis dress, $198, puts on the traditional sporty style.
The fact is that Kolo Creek field logistics base has been supplying electricity to Elebele, Imiringi and Otuasega communities in line with an agreement reached in 1999. However, these communities have since expanded and the demand for power has exceeded the installed capacity. As an alternative, SPDC facilitated the hook-up of the communities to the Bayelsa Electricity Supply Board (BESB) grid, and also supplies gas to the BESB gas turbine at Imiringi. The communities have been enjoying stable power from the facility, but it is understood that the plant is currently undergoing major refurbishment.
We continue to implement development projects in the area. The Kolo Creek Cluster Development Board was inaugurated in 2007 as part of the Global Memorandum of Understanding (GMoU) agreed for execution of the Gbaran-Ubie Integrated Oil and Gas Project. A total of N535mln was disbursed to the Board between 2006 – 2010 for the implementation of projects, including civic centres, accommodation quarters for teachers and youth corps members, drainage systems, internal roads, electricity hook-up and guest houses. Recently, scoping of three interconnecting roads has been completed for remedial actions to cope with the prevailing rainy season. SPDC will continue to engage Kolo Creek communities on implementation of development projects in the area.
We are in the process of engaging the protesting youths who have tampered with our installations in such a manner that poses serious threat to people and the environment. The Bayelsa State Government has been informed of the situation, and we hope that it will be resolved peacefully.
