Somewhere between a summer jacket and cozy cardigan, Georgia is for a woman on the go. Knit in soft organic cotton, with handy pockets for your keys and phone, Georgia is a summer wardrobe staple that can go wherever you go. Whether you throw it on over your bathing suit or drape it over a dress, wear it with jeans or dress it up with pearls, you’ll always look sharp.
