Cashmere Wrap Sweater
The cashmere wrap sweater is a versatile and luxurious option for your wardrobe. You can find this style of sweater at stores like Gap, J. Crew, Macy's and Nordstrom just to name a few. There is nothing more warm and soft on the skin than cashmere, which is harvested from certain types of goats. The crafting of a cashmere item takes a long time, a lot of wool and great expertise, so you can expect to pay more than you would for a sheep's wool sweater. You can find wrap sweaters made from this fine goat wool in both long and short fiber styles.
While long fibers pill less than short ones, it really depends on what you prefer because pills can be removed with a depilling device. Once you've selected the wrap sweater that fits like a dream and feels fabulous to the touch you are ready to build an outfit around it. Cashmere sweaters come in many colors, however true fashionistas stick to natural shades and light colors because they know darker dyes may compromise the softness of the wool. A wrap sweater is one that ties at the waist and can be wrapped tightly for a V-neck look or loosely for casual flair.
You will need to wear something underneath your wrap sweater to avoid an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction. If you're wearing your sweater snugly and want a more risque look consider wearing a matching chemise or bustier underneath. This gives you coverage underneath but still looks sexy. For a casual look, pair your sweater with a fitted tee in a coordinating shade and some cute accessories. When it comes to bottoms these sweaters can be worn with jeans, slacks, skirts and even over dresses.
A beautiful cashmere wrap sweater can take you from fall to spring in fabulous style. You can dress it up or dress it down depending on your mood and your agenda for the day. To care for your cashmere sweater, wash it only when necessary in fine garment detergent in a basin of lukewarm water and lay flat to dry. Fold your sweater rather than hanging it as hangers can damage the delicate fabric and stretch the shoulders out of shape. If your sweater is of good quality and is cared for gently it should retain its shape and texture for a long time.
