If crew necklines aren’t your thing, you’re probably clapping at the fact that a v-neck cashmere sweater made the list. Designed for a roomy (yet flattering) fit, this cozy pullover from Vince Weekend comes in a range of neutral colors and sizes from XXS to XL.

REVIEW HIGHLIGHT
Worried about pilling? We all are when it comes to cashmere, but we have high hopes that this style holds up based on this review: “First I purchased this in black. Then I bought it in gray. This slightly oversized sweater has a v-neck that is not so deep that you absolutely need a tee or cami underneath. and it has that wonderfully soft cashmere feel against bare skin. Obviously, it works with jeans, but I also wear it successfully with boots and a skirt. It layers beautifully under my light-weight coat when I need a bit more warmth. I'm impressed with the quality: The knit is slightly firmer than cheaper cashmeres and pilling has been minimal.”
