Q: "But seriously does no one else remember preppies and pearls,

What does that mean?

I think it refers to the trend of sweater vests, loafers, and the dress trends (Izod). Think Alex Keaton.

In the 80s at different times there were different fashion elements borrowed from as far back as the Victorian up through the 60s and the different styles were worn by different elements within society. The girls among the class royalty tended to dress as preppies and preppy girls wore a lot of pearls.

When we consider the rest of that retards post we can come to the conclusion that she is still angry that the girls from the top social circle in her high school were mean to her.

(In the 80s Gen X certainly wasnt in a position to manipulate Wall Street or, with the exception of some rock stars, be able to afford to pound cocaine up our noses. She isnt the sharpest knife in the drawer.)
