All American StyleCould it be the state of the economy that is causing designers to turn to styles we all can count on? Could be, considering they were all American looks worn on the runways. But don't get your inspiration from over-the-top preppy styles seen at polo matches and country clubs. Be more inspired by Summer fishing trips, barbecues, baseball games, and good old meals of burgers and beers.
