Cashmere Sweaters: A Wardrobe Essential

I anxiously await the arrival of sweater weather every year. Here is further proof of how much I adore a good sweater. With warmer temperatures around the corner it may be getting close to time to pack away your chunky knits but I have found the perfect alternative for the chill that is often found in the spring morning and evening air and that is also a great year round layering piece.

The majority of your shopping dollars should be spent on classic, well made items. We have all had those days were we have stood in front of our closet thinking we have nothing to wear. By investing in timeless pieces you will never be at a loss for what to wear again. Cashmere sweaters are seasonless , timeless, and effortlessly chic. They are a staple every woman should own. I even keep a cashmere sweater or cardigan in my office all summer long because they look amazing with everything and are great for when the air conditioning gets aggressive like it often does in office buildings.

A cashmere sweater (like mine pictured below which is from REPEAT ) is a closet workhorse that you will wear over and over in a million different ways. I love wearing my gray cashmere sweater with a great statement necklace and dark wash jeans for an understated but sophisticated weekend look. Although a cashmere sweater is definitely an investment piece a light weight cashmere sweater will carry you through seasons. I promise you that nothing will feel better than the amazing feeling of the soft wool against your skin. You will thank yourself many times over for building a wardrobe around essentials like the elegant luxury a cashmere sweater offers.
