Coffee, campfires, & cabins to set a cozy mood! These pictures were taken early last spring to introduce our new Kiel James Patrick Happy Camper sweatshirt. We sold out of it so quickly that I never got around to posting these images.

Summer days are quickly winding down. I’m loving the gorgeous variety of end of summer flowers — zinnias, dahlias, and sunflowers big and small. We use vintage milk bottles to arrange flowers around the house. I find the bottles to be really charming and perfect for holding anything from a couple of stems to a dozen.
Garden Grazing Table
Glasses: Farmhouse Pottery, Plates: Martha Stewart. Table Runner: Farmhouse Pottery, Flatware: Williams Sonoma
For the longest time I have been really eager to put together a grazing table. To me it is the ultimate charcuterie board — a work of art to behold and incredibly fun to eat. I posted this grazing table on Instagram and received a good number of questions about it.

Scenes from a sunny summer day in Newport. For the most part I’ve really enjoyed spending time at home this summer but every once in a while a change of scenery is refreshing. I had so much fun on this girls day trip to Newport with Sophie back in July.

Dress: Agua by Agua Bendita, Earrings: Kiel James Patrick, Sandals: Carrie Forbes
If you love a good summer Margarita, the Grilled Watermelon Margarita and the Smoked Blueberry Margarita recipes from Cointreau are amazing. I recently collaborated with Cointreau for a Margarita Monday post and thought I would share the full drink recipes and photos here. Each margarita recipe takes a little while to prepare but the results are very worth it.

Our annual summer family photo in front of our home has a few feathery cameos this year as old summer routines of new places and suitcases have given way to a backyard getaway. Surprisingly I am not minding one bit. Our new favorite trips are out on the porch to watch Harry and Bennie follow the chickens around the yard, or a walk to the garden to check on the progress of our flowers and vegetables.
KJP Summer Sale
This week Kiel James Patrick is having our annual summer sale. Everything is 25% off site-wide until Tuesday, July 7th. We kicked off the sale yesterday and some of the more popular items are already starting to run low.

Summer Porch Refresh
Porch season has returned. In the summer months our porch always gets a great deal of use. It’s the place where we enjoy pizza on a Friday night, cocktails with friends and family, reading books to Harry on the porch swing, and my office when I work from home. It’s always so quiet and peaceful, even the chirping sounds from the family of purple finches who took up residence in our flower basket just after Easter has become relaxing to me.

Bathing Suit: Lisa Marie Fernandez Hat: kate spade ny c/o (old) Float: Funboy
Summer has arrived in full force — the heat and humidity have not let up this week. I have a feeling our pool is going to get a lot of use this season. A few months ago I purchased this golf cart float from Funboy and was really excited to finally use it. It’s roomy enough to fit two people, a pup, and a couple of iced drinks.
The Classic Polo
Today I’m sharing a few images from our Kiel James Patrick polo photoshoot with Sadie. Women’s polos are a classic wardrobe staple and I’m really excited that we are finally offering them for our brand. Each one of our polos is embroidered with our signature Kiel James Patrick logo. We are offering them in 5 different colors — each color named after a flower that can be found in various New England summer destinations.
