So in more evidence that I live in a j crew ad, I am at a beach wedding and there are at least ten men in Nantucket reds (pink/salmon) pants and many embroidered belts. Also mint green pants.

I love the NE preppy aesthetic. I'm preppy light (LOVE Land's End) and I stick out like a sore thumb where I live.
I have this one mega preppy outfit from Talbots (think patterned pants and matching solid shirt) and one of my students asked me if I was wearing pajamas. I LMAO.
Also- I LOVE men in pink. And not salmon or whatever. actual pink. It's too bad many of them are too insecure to wear it.

I like when my H wears pink. However, I could never get him into pink pants. Shorts? A dark salmon possibly. Pink? Doubt it. Pink PANTS? Nope.

At my sister's college graduation 8 years ago there were guys in our row wearing actual pink pants. Not just nantucket red. Multiple people! This was in Texas.
Lol. My husband just about died when we went to my friend's wedding on the Cape. The dress code for the rehearsal dinner was "summer smart." He wore normal pants and a jacket. Compared to everyone else, he looked like he was going to a funeral.
Some guy in asked him in the bathroom if he knew some Yale song. Then started singing it. H came out and was like, "you owe me one."
I was at my doctor's office the other day and a patient's husband cam in wearing red pants and a striped blue oxford shirt. I wanted to crack up. I thought of CEP and our previous discussion immediately. I also wanted to ask him where in New England he's from. Then he was talking about his job and he's a wall street trader. Naturally.
I can get down with a man in a khaki suit cause I love that look, but this other stuff y'all are talking about? No. It makes me think of men with soft hands who can't do shit like change a tire.

We have staff to change a tire.

I think my New England hometown was too working class for me to appreciate this look. I get hives just thinking about pearls.
