If your summer wardrobe could use a little Hamptons polish, start with flowy beach pants. Simple fabrics, relaxed silhouettes and simple pull-on designs strike the perfect balance between comfort and high style. They’re the kind of pants that are perfect for a beachside lunch, a weekend farmer’s market or a sunset dinner by the water.
Unlike tight denim or restrictive pants, these breezy styles float away from the body for a fit that feels as good as it looks. Many feature wide leg cuts, high waists and draped fabrics that create a long, sleek look while keeping you cool on hot days. Ahead, shop 13 boutique-looking pants starting at just $18.
Beach Pants Look Straight Out of a Hamptons Boutique
1. What we like: The wide-leg silhouette and flowing fabric of these beige palazzo pants cinch at the waist and move like silk as you walk. With over 8,000 pairs purchased in the past month, it’s no wonder the $18 pairs are Amazon’s best sellers.
2. Beach Beauties: These striped palazzo pants feature a high-waisted hem complete with a drawstring closure, allowing you to adjust the fit on bloated days. We also like that the khaki and white stripes read well.
3. Details of Love: Made from 100% cotton, these chic capri pants have a lightweight pajama-like feel. The cropped pants also have an elastic drawstring waist and lace trim details that make them stand out.
4. Anthropologie-Style: Barrel-shaped pants cost a pretty penny at Anthropologie, but these $27 striped capri pants give you the exact same look. They are slightly curved at the ankle, have a drawstring waist and have real pockets.
5. Yacht Club-Perfect: Style these palazzo pants with navy and gold sandals and wear them for the marina, a rosé lunch or wherever linen comes in handy.
6. Chilling at the Beach: The red and white pattern and beachy crochet stitch make these bohemian wide leg pants look rich. Bonus: An elasticated drawstring waist takes the place of zippers that can sometimes get inside.
7. Breathable linen: These cotton-linen blend pants feature a drawstring waist that provides a comfortable and breathable feel. The khaki and white stripes also elongate the legs without the need for heels.
8. European Inspired: Wear these European-inspired white pants for breakfast on the terrace, then swap with a silk cami for evening cocktails. One pant but offers two distinctly different looks.
9. Flowing Flowers: Plain beach pants need accessories to feel complete, but not these flower-embellished palazzos. They come pre-made, so a simple tank and flat sandals are all the styles needed.
10. Beautiful Lace: Lace trims run down the outer seam of these wide-leg palazzo pants; classy details add breathability and visual interest without showing too much skin.
11. Casual Glamor: The pleated design in these wide-waisted pants adds movement without volume at the waist, and the tie belt tightens the waist where you want definition. Simply put, they are comfortable without being shapeless.
12. Navy Stripes: The balloon shape of these striped jogger pants tapers at the ankle for a tailored fit. The blue and white stripes give it a sophisticated yet nautical look, making these below fit the boutique’s other finds.
13. Suggested Values: The harem hem on these khaki palazzo capris meets slightly at the ankle, keeping the wide leg out of short frames. They are airy at the thigh and defined at the hem.
