Top 4 Cashmere Sweater Styles

By Cynthia Nellis, About.com

Designers love cashmere for its pure luxury; you'll love the cozy softness and classic elegance. Look for timeless styles that you can wear every winter to stretch your budget (cashmere may be everywhere, but it isn't cheap) or splurge with trendy looks for extra pampering.

1. Cashmere turtleneck

Super-chic in black, camel or winter white. Pair with everything from menswear-print trousers to denim. The one "must-have" item to build a timeless wardrobe.

2. Cabled V-neck

Another classic body, the cabled cashmere V-neck offers more layering opportunities (just match a tight-fitting Tee underneath).

3. Twinset

More of a preppy staple than a trendy item at the moment, but a great value nevertheless. Wear the shell alone, mix the cardigan with other layers or wear together.

4. Blends

If pure cashmere is a bit rich for you, try the cashmere blends: mixed with silk or wool it still gives you lots of luxe.
