Indie Lee
Regular Kuotes readers know that we love Indie Lee here at KKH! I’ve been dreaming of working with the brand and its amazing founder Indie Lee ever since we worked with them out in the Hamptons a few summers ago. If you aren’t familiar with the brand, they’re a pioneer in clean beauty. After surviving a brain tumor, Indie founded her namesake brand with a commitment to safety and sustainability—the brand sources the world’s finest ingredients from nature and marries them with the most prestigious technology available in personal care today.
Since the perfect picnic day means plenty of time outdoors in the sunshine, I wanted to be sure we offered some of the best suncare products on the market as part of this prize package! I’m thrilled to offer a suncare bundle of four of Indie Lee’s most popular primers, sunscreens, and toners.
Our prize package features Indie Lee’s Daily SPF Primer, Mineral Sunscreen – SPF 30, COQ-10 Toner & COQ-10 Toner Travel Size ($137 Value)
Maman
You may remember that I had the pleasure of speaking on a panel back in May with Maman founder Elisa Marshall—and I’ve been envisioning a partnership with them ever since! Our NYC-based readers certainly know Maman’s signature brand of chic and delicious that they bring to all of their physical coffee shops.
Maman’s cookies have long had a cult following—Oprah has named them on of her “Favorite Things”—so we figured we couldn’t have a perfect picnic without them! This dreamt gift box includes a cookbook, cookies, and a teacup and saucer for the perfect blend of beauty and yumminess!
Our prize package features Maman’s Made With Love Gift Box—Including a Signed Cookbook, Box of 8 Cookies, and Ceramic Blue & White Teacup & Saucer ($90 Value)
Olivia James
We’ve all seen the IG posts of our chicest friend or favorite influencer lounging in a pristine meadow of wildflowers in the most perfect flowing summer dress that’s somehow preppy and bohemian all at once. That could be you! Enter Olivia James! One of my team members introduced me to this female-founded brand after discovering them on IG and I’ve been in love every since—and all of their pieces would be right at home at a summer picnic.
Founded in 2018 by two friends—Lindsay Cunningham and Elizabeth Ackerman—with fashion industry know-how, this brand places a big emphasis on easy silhouettes, luxurious fabrics, and beautiful custom prints. What more could you ask for in a summer dress?

Partake Foods
Okay, so I am actually so so so excited to introduce you all to Partake Foods if you aren’t already familiar! As a mom myself, I love working with other mom-founded brands, but beyond that, there’s nothing I love more than seeing a fellow mama take a parenting challenge and turn it into something positive and amazing. Partake was founded by Denise Woodard in 2016 after her daughter was diagnosed with several food allergies and she saw space in the market for allergy-friendly snacks and sweets that were actually super-yummy!
Today, Partake Foods is a Black-owned, women-led brand on a mission to make snacking and sharing deliciously worry-free—all their offerings are certified gluten-free, vegan, non-GMO, and top 9 allergen-free! And, just in time for summer picnics, they recently introduced their latest innovation: Classic Graham Crackers! This versatile graham cracker has a crisp texture with notes of cinnamon, and is ideal for anytime snacking, indulgent desserts, and more.
Our prize package features 6 Boxes of Partake Foods’ NEW Classic Graham Crackers, 2 boxes each of Partake Foods’ Soft Baked Lemon Cookies & Soft Baked Snickerdoodle Cookies ($40+ Value)
Sue Sartor
Nothing says “easy breezy summer fashion” like a flowing silhouette and a beautiful block print—which is why I am a longtime fan of Sue Sartor and her signature Flounce Dresses (I have the sleeveless version of the green and white one pictured above and I am obsessed).
Here’s some background on Sue and her brand: Each of Sue Sartor’s styles are made by artisans in limited quantities; each block-printed dress is hand stamped and Sue works closely with a design team in Jaipur to source exclusive fabrics. Additionally: all of their silks and satins are hand-loomed and hand-dyed to ensure a unique look, artisan quality, and a sustainable process.
Our prize package features a Sue Sartor Flounce Dress of Your Choice ($495 Value)
UrbanStems
Finally: what would a summer picnic be without some seasonal blooms perched beautifully in a vase on the corner of your picnic blanket? Thanks to our friends at UrbanStems, you’ll be sure to have the bouquet of your dreams!
UrbanStems has long been my go-to for flower delivery. They take pride in sourcing on-trend flowers and creating one-of-a-kind arrangements you won’t find anywhere else, and they work with the best-in-class designers to offer gorgeous bouquets and curated plants that fit every occasion. Plus, UrbanStems also works directly with Rainforest Alliance Certified farms and makes the effort to invest in the people who work there.
