Few things can compare to the warmth and pleasure of pulling on a soft cashmere sweater on a cold day and J. Crew says that this Cashmere Argyle V-neck Sweater is made of their softest cashmere yet. The argyle pattern has a gray heather base with cream and light tan diamonds accenting it, giving it an understated look despite the relatively bold pattern. It has ribbed trip at the neck, cuffs and hem. It goes perfectly with jeans for a casual look, but can easily be dressed up with slacks and a coat for a more refined appearance.

And if you're worried that, for some reason, you can't pull off argyle, they have a similar crew-neck cashmere sweater in solid colors. Price: $228.

You might think that a cat would be an odd choice for a design on clothing meant for dogs, but Hello Kitty fans seem to enjoy seeing the little feline face just about anywhere. This Hello Kitty Pet Sweater, suitable for smallish dogs and cats, is a Neiman Marcus exclusive. It is made of soft pink cashmere with a bit of lycra added to make sure it fits your pet comfortably. The kitty detailing is done with pink, black and white crystals. It is available in XS(2-5 pounds), S(5-8 pounds), M(8-12 pounds). Price: $100

I have heard it said that there is a knitting craze among the Hollywood hot list, but it seems rather unlikely that they're sitting at home knitting sweaters when Los Angeles is in the midst of a major heat wave. But it might be true because a popular LA knitting store, Suss Designs, is now selling sweaters inspired by Suri Cruise and Shiloh Jolie- Pitt. Suri's sweater is emblazoned with her initial, while the Shiloh sweater has two cartoon faces that might represent Brangelina's other kids, Zahara and Maddox. The sweaters are selling for $109 (Shiloh) and $89 (Suri) at Suss's LA boutique.
