The preppy look never dies, honestly – it doesn’t, I have tried to kill it but it just keeps getting revived and while that sucks for me, many people do love the fact that preppy’s are still around and you can still purchase classic shoes like a pair of penny loafers.  Designers have picked up on the penny loafer trend as well and celebrities have gone absolutely nuts!

Kirsten Dunst and Katie Holmes are just a few of the celebrities that have traded in their high, high heels for the lovely and comfortable feel of a new pair of penny loafers.  If you do not know exactly what a penny loafer is, it basically is a pair of shoes with a very low heel that is honestly, not all that stylish to begin with but slowly they are growing in popularity and style.

So if you own a pair of penny loafers and they have been in the back of your closet because of lack of style, dig ‘em out!  They are back in style and all the celebrities are looking for them!  Whether they are blue, black, green or red – penny loafers are hot for ’09!
