Top Fall Sweater Trends

Leave a Comment

Who doesn’t love a cozy sweater? Um, basically no one. They are exactly the kind of thing that people get “excited” for during fall and on Nantucket sweaters are a necessity. This season, it’s all about oversized sweaters. Just make sure you go oversized and not big. Don’t know the difference? Big means you’re swimming in the sweater and you may need to size down, while oversized looks like you styled it that way, so you look comfy yet chic. The PINK sweater featured above is the Tinley Road Chevron Stitch Turtle Neck from Piperlime and is currently selling for $98. We selected this one to feature in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness month. Below, we’ve rounded up some of the best sweaters for the Fall. We definitely want to get the green one below for Christmas Stroll Weekend – December 5th – 7th, 2014!

Indian Summer on Nantucket

Leave a Comment

The weather here on Nantucket has simply been beautiful, crisp fall air, and brilliant blue skies.  October is a great time to visit Nantucket and truly enjoy the natural beauty without the crowds.  Shop the local stores and dine out to meet some of the locals and find out why they love Nantucket so much.  Have you ever visited Nantucket after Labor Day?  What did you think?  Do you like visiting the island when it’s hopping with visitors during the summer months or do you enjoy visiting the island when it’s less crowded and more relaxed?

Park by Nantucket Airport

A perfect place to enjoy the amazing statues representing life on Nantucket.  This one is one of my favorites as the children look so realistic.  The grass is nice and green and it is the perfect space to toss a Frisbee around and have a little fun!  There is plenty of space between statues so you could also bring a picnic basket and enjoy a nice relaxing afternoon with your favorite book and some good food!  Has anyone read any really good books lately?  I just finished reading The Book Thief by Markus Zusak which I really enjoyed but now I’m looking for another good book to read.  Any suggestions?
