Continuing in our “what to pack” series (see Miami/Palm Beach here and Aspen/Vail here): what do we pack for a summer trip to Nantucket? I believe this guide is applicable to other New England destinations, but am anchoring in ACK. I consulted several friends who have spent substantial amount of time on Nantucket for their input, and can’t wait to share some style ideas.

I just got back from a trip to ACK, love all of this but would add a cute rain jacket as the weather was all over the place.
What a perfect New England capsule wardrobe for summer! Love the sailboat sweater, and all the blues and reds!! For those planning a trip, Elin Hilderbrand recently released a travel guide, The Blue Book. You can buy an autographed keepsake copy from Nantucket Book Partners online. It comes with a cheeky Nantucket luggage tag. I’m using it as a bag charm on my boat tote appropriately embroidered with East Coast. So fun! The new MZ Wallace bags in the blue and white seersucker print would also be a great travel companion for a trip to the island!
Thanks, Anne! Great suggestion on the MZW bag!!
