Every summer, my timelines on Instagram and TikTok are full of different aesthetics being thrown my way for the months to come. Last summer, we were loving all things quiet luxury and the tomato girl aesthetic, and before that, it was all about pretty cottagecore pieces. Ahead of this summer, I have already decided on which vibe I'm going with. While I know it's only spring, I have some summer weekends away from the city planned, and I had to get a head start on shopping for those. For me, landing on an aesthetic became crucial. Out of all the stylish aesthetics calling out to me, "New England chic" is the one I had to go for.

Think linen pieces, elevated sun hats, striped everything, and under-the-sea jewelry, all wrapped in an East Coast Americana feel. As you probably guessed, I have already started to shop for my New England–chic summer and have found so many good pieces. I'm worried they'll be sold out by June, so if I were you, I'd act fast.
