I Only Buy Cashmere From Nordstrom, Shopbop, and J.Crew—These Sweaters Are Why
Running your hands over a cashmere sweater is one of life's little luxuries. The fiber is sourced from pashmina or cashmere goats and is known for its softness. It can also be mixed with wool to provide extra warmth during the freezing winter months. Nearly any article of clothing is available in the material (pants, socks, scarves—you name it!), but a cashmere sweater is one of the classics you need. It makes layering so much easier in colder temperatures, and there are tons of options you can choose from between turtlenecks, cardigans, polos, and oversize silhouettes.
Though they are a little trickier to care for (you can't just throw one in the wash and call it a day), the wear you'll get out of them and the styling versatility they provide make cashmere sweaters well worth their sometimes-hefty price tags. When I'm looking to stock up, I gravitate toward Nordstrom, Shopbop, and J.Crew. Once you scroll through the below list, you'll understand why. Ahead, I rounded up 33 of the best cashmere sweaters to shop at each retailer so you can feel absolutely luxurious while going about your day this winter.
