A playground for the well-to-do and well-connected for generations, the Hamptons are the quintessential summertime escape for the creme de la creme of New York’s social set. But though the East End of Long Island is often referred to as a collective destination, marked by magnificent mansions, private beaches, and an overall air of luxury, the area is actually made up of a number of distinct enclaves, each boasting its own unique personality – and calling for its own sense of style. Since the last thing you want to do is arrive in East Hampton with a Montauk mindset (or wardrobe, for that matter), we’re giving you a rundown of every Hamptons town, and the perfect Fleur vibe to go with it. So pack your weekender and hitch a ride on the Jitney – we’ll see you slaying out East.
Southampton - The Rich B*tch

Sag Harbor - The Yacht Hopper
A little bit naughty, a lotta bit nautical. If the Hamptons are the French Riviera of the Atlantic, you can consider Sag Harbor the local St. Tropez. Seafaring chic is the name of the game, though the mood is more superyacht than sailboat. Think: Body-skimming numbers in sunny hues that would feel right at home cruising along the Mediterranean — or pulling right up to the dock for a late night dinner and dance party at Le Bilboquet. Whether you’re heading out for a day on the boat, or just popping a bottle of bubbly paired with a waterfront view, you’re sure to fit right in with all your fellow jet-setters and yacht-hoppers.
