As if the station wagon complete with wood paneling wasn't great enough, I spy an old wooden racket and vintage skies - two favorite pastimes of preps worldwide.
Navy, camel, and grey are three color staples in any prepster's closet. Sprinkle in saturated primary accents - reds and yellows and plaid for good measure - and you've pretty much bought yourself admission to Groton.
Sweat headband corralling an abundance of moppy curls? How very Richie Tenenbaum of you, Hilfiger stylists.
I can't decide who I love more: the Candace Bergen look-alike being carried around sedan-chair style or the cutie with the glasses and the toggle coat. Tricky...
So young, yet so cool. Not fair. On another note, what's with the fingerless gloves? I've been seeing these everywhere, and quite frankly, I don't get it.
So many turtlenecks, fitted blazers, oversized sunglasses, and plaid! Styling at its best. Then there's the candelabras... can't forget to mention the candelabras!
I love that you posted about this commercial... it's fabulous. I love the styling- and it's so perfect for this time of year! Really makes me want to wear plaid and cardigans for the remainder of the cool season!

ReplyDeleteI love when the pupper drives away at the end. lol.

So charming! And I'm with you on the fingerless gloves.x
ReplyDeleteThe fingerless gloves are designed so that you can text your heart out no mater how cold the weather!
ReplyDeleteThat's my guess.
I mean its a great commercial becaues when you screen cap it, its beautiful and could stand on its own in print. And the Vampire Weekend song makes it even better. But MOST of all it actually makes me want to wear Tommy Hilfiger, which I assure you I never thought of before.
ReplyDeleteIt catches my eye every time it comes on. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteIt looks fabulous, can't wait to watch it! And the latest Rue is amazing, well done!x
ReplyDeleteI've been loving this commercial,too, and I even stop fast-forwarding my TiVo when it comes on. I have to admit that I'm not sure I "get it" (or if there's even anything to get?) but it's entertaining!
ReplyDeleteFingerless gloves...to show off well-manicured nails?
ReplyDeleteThough they aren't practical for really cold days, I love them:)
Cute commercial!
Love this! I didn't think I was a Tommy Hilfiger fan. Who knew?
ReplyDeleteFingerless gloves are for people that live in LA. Not Chicago. :)
