What’s your summer?

Mine’s a lobster roll and a dark & stormy.
Hearing Scituate’s yacht club shoot off their cannon every night at sundown.
Picking up Marylou’s right before driving over the Sagamore bridge.
Contemplating every ice cream flavor on Dribbles’s menu, even though I know I’ll always end up back at my coffee frappe.
Broken in Jack Rogers.
Finding sand even in our city apartment.
Refusing to wear pants no matter how much the temperature drops.

It’s a cozy beach sweater and a beach bag that I–let’s be honest–never really clean out until Labor Day.

This is my Cape Cod uniform–a light linen pullover to cozy up in with coffee on the porch in the morning, or for a nighttime beach stroll. And shorts, because, their lifespan is quite fleeting as far as my closet is concerned. July & August and then back in the vault they go y’all.

I’ve recently fallen in love with Caribbean-based brand HIHO clothing through my work at In the Pink. We sell their crazy comfy sweaters, dresses, linen shorts, and uh-dorable nautical accessories at Resort and Shift on Nantucket, and I’ve been stocking up on weekend wear. From one island to another!
