Last year, I discovered Gap’s CashSoft fabric, and it’s the one thing I’m wearing straight into the New Year. The material is made to feel like cashmere, so it’s incredibly soft and comfortable, but it’s easy to care for: I machine-wash my pieces, lay them flat to dry, and they come out looking brand new. I’m not the only Strategist staffer who’s a CashSoft stan. Our senior editor Jen Trolio owns three of the brand’s crewneck sweaters. She told me that compared to cashmere, which often comes with a steep price tag, CashSoft is a steal for the price. And right now, the Shaker-Stitch Sweater Pants are more than half off, bringing the price down to just $31 from the original $80. I own the cable-knit version, which are my favorite lounge-about-the-house-pants and feature the same elastic waist and wide-leg silhouette.
