Club Room, $175 / $89.99
Cashmere and luxury go hand in hand. There's a reason why someone will coo when touching your sweater, "Oh wow ... is that cashmere?" When that question is asked, you want the answer to be a decisive "it is." The softest, warmest and lightest-weight sweater that money could buy, cashmere was only recently democratized. Which means that if you don't have two grand for a sweater by Brunello Cucinelli or The Elder Statesmen, you can now find an impressive (and still damn soft) option for around $100.

Direct-to-consumer brands like Everlane offer some of the most affordable Grade A cashmere by cutting out the middleman. J.Crew uses yarn milled in Italy and buys enough in bulk to bring down the consumer cost while Uniqlo uses a propriety blend of grade A and B cashmere, the result being a soft but durable sweater. From thinner, lightweight options perfect for layering under a jacket, to thicker and cozier knits that will stand up to winter's chill, there's a style and price to suit anyone's taste.

Cashmere comes from the under down wool shed by goats in the Gobi Desert. It takes one goat four years to grow enough for one sweater.
