Cable knits are a classic when it comes to cool weather knitwear. To refresh your fall knitwear, select a cashmere sweater in a bold hue for a surprisingly bright pop of color this season. Create a luxe contrast by pairing your cable knit cashmere sweater with a supple leather or suede skirt and glossy patent heels.

4. Round Neck Cashmere Sweater

Because basics are the cornerstone to any workable and outstanding wardrobe, a traditional round neck cashmere sweater is the perfect layering piece.

5. Sheer Cashmere Sweater

There are even sexy cashmere sweaters every fashionista must own this season! Sheer cashmere sweaters are subtly sexy, providing the illusion of exposed skin in the cooler months. Wear a camisole in the same color tone underneath a sheer cashmere sweater to keep your look seductive yet sophisticated.

6. Cashmere Turtleneck Sweater

Protect yourself from the impending chill of fall with a cashmere turtleneck sweater. A thick or chunky knit turtleneck should be worn with sleek and fitted pairings for a balanced and proportionate look to flatter your figure. For fall, spruce up a conservative turtleneck by playing with prints and patterns like a geometric checker to bring your sweater up to style speed.

7. Loose Cashmere Sweater

Nothing is more comfy and cozy than a relaxed-fit, loose cashmere sweater. The combination of the soft cashmere mixed with the oversized shape offers maximum ease and effortless cool. Again, balance is key, so pair a loose fitting cashmere sweater with fitted trousers or a sleek maxi skirt.

8. Open Knit Cashmere Sweater

Open knit cashmere sweaters are the perfect transitional piece to have in your wardrobe to take you effortlessly from fall to summer.
