E! illustration/Courtesy of QuinceAh, cashmere! The luxe, super-soft material that we all yearn for come the winter season. Unfortunately for us, cashmere is usually really expensive. During these trying times, we're looking for any affordable option that manages to keep us warm while remaining stylish, chic, and will last us in our wardrobe for years.
Cashmere is a specialty hair fibre that is formed from the soft undercoat of the Kashmir goat. We recommend you read the fine-print of your cashmere accessories and sweater to make sure it's 100% cashmere, and not a blend (with only 5% cashmere and the rest polyester or wool) that uses the term for marketing purposes.
It may be surprising, but there are lots of affordable chilly weather accessories made from 100% cashmere—you just have to look for them. You may have heard of Quince, the reader-and-editor-favorite brand that specializes in affordable and sustainable cashmere. You'll also find other brands like Nordstrom, Aritizia, UNIQLO, and more that offer scarfs and gloves for under $100.
Intrigued? Cozy up and keep scrolling to shop our favorite picks for 100% cashmere gloves and scarves that are under $100—some are even under $50!
