You don’t need an East Coast summer house to recreate the aesthetic. New England rich moms are top-tier polished — essential for country club luncheons, boarding school drop-offs and weekends in the Hamptons. Their classy staples carry them through, and we found 17 luxe-looking pieces that could pass as something from their closet.
Whether you’re searching for dresses, blouses, pants, skirts or even footwear, you’ll find them below. These coastal-chic picks should cost hundreds, but they start at just $6! Breezy, elegant and all sorts of luxe, our favorites truly belong in Martha’s Vineyard.
19 New England-Style Summer Pieces — From $6
New England-Style Dresses
1. Our Favorite: Ruffle cap sleeves and a buttery yellow hue give Dokotoo’s midi dress pure Nantucket vibes. The length works from brunch to dinner.
2. Extra Preppy: A crisp collar and eye-catching color scheme elevate this T-shirt dress from basic to country club. It’s the easiest one-and-done outfit you’ll throw on all summer.
3. Eyelet Style: Wear this romantic eyelet dress to an outdoor wedding with woven sandals and gold hoops. It photographs like something triple the price.
4. Flower Girl: This delicate floral dress has that boutiquey feel you’d find on Newbury Street, minus the $300 price tag. The art-like print reads so elevated.
5. Could Be Lilly: Oversized blooms, a vintage style and bright colors give this vibrant dress real Lilly Pulitzer energy. Somehow, some way, it’s only $28!
6. Upgraded Tee: The comfy loungewear feel — without looking like you gave up. Just throw on this simple yet chic maxi dress with sandals, and you’re done.
7. Beach Babe: With a built-in waist tie, this beachy maxi dress cinches right where you want it. It smoothes your midsection without feeling restrictive.
Long-haul flights mean people-watching, which is especially fun at airports in London, Paris and other ritzy European spots. Connecting flights have brought me everywhere lately, and no matter where I go, rich moms wear the same 17 outfit set styles. I found them all on Amazon, and the chicest finds start at just $8! These […]
New England-Style Blouses
8. Our Favorite: Tiny scattered florals make this dainty blouse feel quietly expensive. Tuck it into white denim and you have the easiest (but cutest) weekend outfit.
9. Zimmermann Vibes: Zimmermann blouses run several hundred dollars, but PrettyGarden’s frilly cap-sleeve top has the same dreamy silhouette for only $20.
10. Oh-So Polished: Short puff sleeves and a button front give this striped shirt a Hamptons-meets-Hermès look. The classic stripes work with any bottoms.
11. Silky Satin: When you want to look socialite-rich, a long-sleeve satin blouse is the answer. This one has the drape you’d expect at 10 times the price.
12. Royal Vibes: Kate Middleton wears bow-tie blouses, so naturally, we’re snagging this short-sleeved pussy-bow blouse that channels her regal polish. It makes you appear instantly refined, but won’t leave you sweating in the heat.
13. Mock-Neck Maven: For some women, spaghetti straps feel like a no-go. This mock-neck tank top covers more without sacrificing that summery flair.
New England-Style Pants and Skirts
14. Like Linen: Linen-like fabric gives these palazzo pants all the ease with none of the wrinkle drama. The wide legs flow beautifully with every step.
15. Expensive Aesthetic: Lounge pants can sometimes look frumpy, but these striped wonders channel Capri vacation vibes, even if you’re just hanging on the porch.
16. Boho Twist: This boho-meets-preppy floral midi skirt is practically made for farmer’s market mornings. The curved hemline adds dimension that flat cuts can’t match.
17. Wardrobe MVP: Linen-blend fabric ensures these staple black pants are cooling on days when other options feel suffocating. Under $10 makes them an obvious add.
New England-Style Shoes
18. Reader-Loved: Strappy shoes can be a pain to get on and off. These slip-on sandals feature a clean H-strap design that stays secure without the hassle of tying or fastening.
19. Bye, Sneakers: Slip on these Mary Jane flats with cropped trousers for lunch downtown, or with a midi dress for museum afternoons. Sneakers? Retired!
If you dream of having a wardrobe filled with Aritzia clothing pieces, same. But why drop your entire paycheck if you don’t have to?
