Soft cashmere. Elegant colors. Luxe vibes.
If you’re on Instagram or TikTok, you’ve seen the ads about sweaters that somehow cost less than brunch. Everyone was talking about Quince and their “premium without the price” magic. Naturally, I was curious. But also… skeptical. Could cashmere sweaters this cute and this affordable actually hold up?
I finally gave in after seeing one too many “Mongolian Cashmere Crewneck” outfits in my feed. I clicked. I browsed. I bought three sweaters. And I get it now.
Here’s what actually convinced me Quince is worth the hype.
Quince uses the kind of materials you’d expect from $150+ brands, without the markup.
The moment I unboxed the Mongolian Cashmere Tee in Ivory/Black Stripe, I could feel the quality. It’s 100% Grade-A Mongolian cashmere, the same kind you’d find at high-end stores, but for a fraction of the price. The fiber is buttery soft, breathable, and feels elevated without being fussy. I wore it once with denim shorts and immediately got DMs asking where it was from.
The price is worth it and truly an investment.
We’ve all seen “affordable” clothes that cut corners. This isn’t that. The Cashmere Crewneck Sweater in Minimal Pink and Faded Denim has quickly become my go-to for unpredictable spring weather. It layers beautifully, feels luxurious, and costs $50 less than similar pieces in my closet. I had to double-check the tag to make sure it wasn’t mislabeled. It wasn’t.
And let’s talk about the 100% Organic Cotton Boyfriend Crew Sweater — an under-$40 gem. I wore it to brunch last weekend with wide-leg jeans and gold hoops. Someone complimented me before I even got to my table. The cotton is thick but breathable. Slightly slouchy but polished, which is perfect for my style.
No fast fashion vibes here. These sweaters last.
I’ve worn each of these multiple times already. No pilling. No fading. No stretching out into an unrecognizable blob like some of the "affordable luxury" I've been burned by before.
The cashmere pieces are especially impressive. Quince uses a pill-resistant yarn that still manages to feel soft and cozy. And the colors are rich, chic, and sturdy. Not at all flimsy or sheer.
Every piece is actually… wearable.
These aren’t trendy throwaways. They’re building blocks. The Cashmere Tee? Perfect for work meetings, coffee runs, and even travel days. The Boyfriend Cotton Sweater? My new layering hero for chilly mornings. The Crewneck Cashmere Sweater? Worn with linen trousers one day and bike shorts the next.
I love that I don’t have to overthink styling. Each piece works with what I already own, which makes getting dressed way easier.
The hype is real — and now I’m that girl telling everyone.
I used to scroll past the ads. Now I am the ad. I’ve never gotten so many compliments or questions about what I’m wearing.
“What sweater is that?”
“Wait… that’s cashmere?”
“Is it actually worth it?”
Yes. Yes. And yes.
So if you’ve been eyeing those Quince ads, consider this your sign. These sweaters feel like a splurge without the price tag. They’re the kind of pieces you’ll wear on repeat — through spring chills, office AC battles, and everything in between.
You can bet I’ll be back for more.
