How To Dress For A Nantucket Vacation

I’ve been vacationing on Nantucket since I was a newborn. I know this Island quite well, especially the outfits women typically wear while strolling down Main Street or having a cocktail at The Galley. A Nantucket-inspired vacation wardrobe needs to be classic and timeless, like the island itself. Shop the outfits and products I am buying for my vacation to Nantucket, MA this spring!


Nantucket Style Guide Inspired by the Natural Colors of the Island

One of the things that make Nantucket iconic is the colors that are natural and in sync with the nature and beauty of the island. The colors I have chosen are all a reflection of the color palette that is Nantucket.


Nantucket Natural: Wool-Blends & Cashmere


Nantucket “Grey Lady” Knits


Natural Tones

I am focusing these products around light pink and blush colors as well as classic ivory whites, and natural blues and grays. Because it will be chilly at night, I have included warm, cozy outfits and wool blends to ensure my arms don’t get goosebumps as the temperature drops at night!


Nantucket Cobblestone Outerwear


Nantucket Casual Loungewear

I have been vacationing on Nantucket Island since I was a child. Every year, my family and I would stay for the summer and enjoy the exquisite beauty that only Nantucket can offer. This Nantucket Style Guide & Shopping List was originally designed to help me plan my outfits for my trip to Nantucket this Spring. As I researched outfit ideas and thought of how I could look my finest for Nantucket, I decided to create this Nantucket Style Guide for everyone to enjoy! I did all the research, so we may all as well enjoy it!


Nantucket “White Elephant”

The White Elephant is an iconic hotel located right in town on Nantucket. I have stayed there before in December for “Christmas Stroll,” an annual Nantucket Island celebration on the first weekend of December. The White Elephant has expanded to Palm Beach, FL, opening an exquisite second hotel location as well as Lola 41, one of my favorite places to dine!

Concluding Thoughts

I always hold myself to high standards when choosing each and every individual product. If you are a first-time reader or read my blog religiously, you know I don’t buy trendy pieces or products that are not made to top quality. I believe you can buy well-made and timeless pieces without having to spend a fortune. Just because we can’t all shop at Loro Piana when we want to buy cashmere, does NOT mean we can’t compromise when we want to get cozy in front of the fire.
