Warm Fuzzies

As the winter weather musters to bluster, it’s time to don the tiresome layers to stave off the cold.

Don’t get me wrong – layering is my favorite part of the season. But have you ever reached that point where you’ve got so many thick-knit pieces on that the words ‘abominable’ and ‘snowman’ come to mind?

If you’d rather not think of your weather-conscious style as a weight on your shoulders, I recommend a considerably more effective (and lightweight) approach. Instead of cumbersome cotton, why not try cashmere this time around?

On top of being unbelievably soft, cashmere is best known for its ability to provide natural light-weight insulation without bulk. That is, cashmere is about eight times warmer than an equal amount of cotton. And when properly taken care of, cashmere clothing carries a long lifespan.
