Even though I’m still hoping for spring, I can never resist the lure of a cozy sweater.  Augden is a new designer on my radar, and their goods just launched online!  I’ve been anxious to share – they’re the perfect piece for a weekend throw-on, and would be ideal in any spring vacation suitcase, don’t you agree?

I’m just crazy for these designs – they feel so special and carefully crafted.  I love the bright colors in the Navajo-inspired cardigans, and that fisherman’s sweater is such a unique take on a timeless style.  Can’t you just see yourself wearing it with cuffed jean shorts on a beach somewhere, without a care in the world?

You can buy a few of their pieces on their website (be sure to check out the “Shop Gossip Girl” link to see that yummy wrap cardigan, above, which was featured…well, you know), or on Calypso St. Barth, a perennial favorite of mine.  Pricing is a little steep, mostly in the $300-400 range.  But these pieces are so special, I could definitely see myself taking the plunge.
