Tops That’ll Make You Look Like You Summer on Nantucket (Even If You Don’t)

Tops That’ll Make You Look Like You Summer on Nantucket (Even If You Don’t)

Let’s just say—when it comes to packing for a coastal getaway, I love a good outfit formula. And mine always starts with a great pair of wide leg jeans and a rotation of cute, effortless tops. Whether I’m grabbing coffee and walking down Main Street, or heading out to a casual dinner date with my husband after a beach day, I want to look put-together but feel completely at ease. And these summer tops? They get the assignment.

I rounded up a few favorites I’d definitely pack for Nantucket, and even if you’re not heading to the island this summer, they’ll bring that breezy, timeless charm to wherever you are. From nautical stripes to soft knits that work for chilly ferry rides, these are the pieces that make summer style feel easy and elevated.

The striped sweater tank I already ordered

Let’s start here—because it’s so good. The navy and cream combo is classic, and the knit gives it just enough structure to look polished while still feeling relaxed. I tried it on with my go-to wide leg jeans and it was an instant yes. I’ll be wearing this one on repeat while shopping in town.

Lightweight cashmere drawstring hem tank for cool Nantucket days

You know those late afternoons when the breeze picks up and you need just a little extra warmth? This cashmere drawstring hem top is the dream. It feels lightweight but cozy, and that little detail at the hem gives it a fun twist. I’d wear this with jeans and sandals for an early evening walk by the water—or even to dinner at Galley Beach when the sun starts to dip.

Stripes, always

You’ll never see me say no to a striped top, especially in the summer. There’s something so timeless about them. That sleeveless ivory/navy tank? So cute with denim shorts and a beach tote. And that cozy long-sleeve blue and cream knit? Ideal for early mornings with coffee on the porch or layered over a swimsuit after a dip in the ocean. Pure Nantucket charm.
