Red Twist Cashmere
Amy Cooper is a cashmere lover. While living in Asia, she strolled the boutiques and soon discovered that all cashmere is not created equal. So, she did what any cashmere-loving traveler would do; she went in search of “the one.” But that’s when it got interesting. Not content to keep it all to herself, she designed the wrap of all wraps. Produced in 16 shades, this 100% cashmere wrap will be the best money you’ll spend updating your wardrobe. A portion of each purchase benefits the non-profit Room to Read, which supports “literacy and gender equality in education.” theredtwist.com • $195
