As a military spouse, Owner/Designer Angela Parks needed to find a career that could accommodate her frequent moves. After four relocations in seven years, she quickly realized that her career in Human Resources would not be a suitable occupation any longer.
Initiated by her creativeness and her need for adorable personalized items, she created, The Preppy Poppy. Named after her love affair with Poppy flowers and her love for always Preppy J. Crew (she was not paid for this endorsement - but wishes she was) clothing, she joined the two names.
Angela's creations are inspired by her children, for whom she insists on dressing in personalized matching outfits every chance she gets!
What was once intended to be an online boutique for all ages has now been centered on children. Though we carry some personalized items for adults, it appears our kids items are a hit!
The Preppy Poppy strives to create original and quality merchandise. How do we know that people like us - because they always come back!
We appreciate your interest in The Preppy Poppy. We hope you have as much fun shopping the site, as we do creating the products!
