Luxuriously soft yet surprisingly versatile, short-sleeve cashmere tops are the unsung heroes of any capsule wardrobe, especially when it comes to those transitional months when we shed our wool winter coats but aren’t quite ready for tank tops. They bridge the gap between casual comfort and refined elegance, making them perfect for everything from relaxed weekends to polished workdays.
