These Under-the-Radar J.Crew Factory Picks Deserve a Spot in Your Suitcase (on sale too)

I’ve been curating a little wish list for my upcoming Nantucket trip, and let me tell you—it’s looking so good. While I love sharing splurge-worthy finds here and there, I always get excited when I find coastal-cute pieces that feel thoughtful, timeless, and fun to wear. Enter: J.Crew Factory. It’s like the stylish little sister of J.Crew who knows how to keep summer style feeling fresh and pulled together.

These are the kinds of pieces that quietly pull together your whole summer vibe. A classic gingham shirt that nods to picnic days and Nantucket charm. A sweet crochet knit cardigan and shorts set that feels like a Martha Stewart moment in the best way (I mean, that scalloped trim? Come on!). A hydrangea tee that basically says “I’m summering in a cottage garden.” And that striped swimsuit? Very “beach house mornings and iced coffee on the porch” vibes.

I pulled together this collage of pieces I either already love or plan on ordering for our trip to Nantucket later this summer. Think: easy mix-and-match options that work from breakfast to beach to evening strolls through town. And bonus—they’re on sale right now, which makes the packing process even more fun.

Of course, I’ll be bringing lots of my favorite J.Crew staples too—because when it comes to summer style, no one does it quite like J.Crew. But these J.Crew Factory finds? They’re the secret sauce. They round out the wardrobe, keep things easy, and add those sweet little details that make a coastal outfit feel extra special.
