Sorry to the Leggings in My Closet—This Luxe Basic Might Replace You
When it comes to cozywear, I'm pretty particular. At this point, my wardrobe is pretty well-stocked with sweatsuits, bike shorts, leggings, and slippers—and I have to admit that I'm still not tired of sinking into comfy clothes, even after a long time wearing them. (Yes, even after nearly two solid years of slipping into the pieces on repeat.) And while I still haven't retired my sweatpants or leggings, I've felt like it's time for an upgrade of my standard pairs. That's where cashmere leggings step in.
The ultimate luxe take on athleisure, cashmere leggings are a chic buy that is equally suited for lounging at home or taking a red-eye flight. They double down on both chic and cozy vibes, and I personally can't get enough of the off-duty staple. Here, shop the 29 best cashmere leggings on the internet—ranging from affordable buys to investment pairs.
