My forever favorite summertime style is an effortlessly elegant, weekend with the Kennedys, New England–inspired coastal aesthetic. It’s crisp, clean and always looks ultra-chic.  And while I may never own a shingled home in Nantucket, my style can still say otherwise, right?

Slip on the boat shoes, tie a cashmere sweater around your shoulders and lean fully into those Coastal Grandmother vibes. Picture your Hamptons hideaway, where linen trumps leather and Nancy Meyers always reigns supreme.
