This oil ($14) is built for pizza first, but the serrano kick works on pretty much anything that could use heat and shine.

This is a blazer that can do some heavy lifting. Flint and Tinder takes the easygoing shape of a chore jacket and gives it a cold-weather upgrade with boiled wool. The fabric brings warmth, texture and a bit of structure without the stiffness of traditional tailoring. That makes it an ideal middle ground for days when a sweatshirt feels too casual but a proper sport coat seems excessive. Throw it over a chunky knit with faded jeans or pair it with an Oxford and relaxed trousers. It’s a particularly useful piece for fall and winter and comes in several colorways.

Are you ready for SPECS? Snap’s new smart glasses bring augmented reality into a surprisingly wearable pair of shades, projecting digital experiences onto the world without blocking your view of it. Think heads-up navigation, a giant virtual screen for watching movies, AI assistance and even basketball practice with virtual players. The lightweight frames feature adaptive tinted lenses, built-in speakers and voice and gesture controls, so you’re not constantly reaching for your phone. There’s even a digital whiteboard you can pull up wherever inspiration strikes. They’re certainly an investment, but they also offer a fascinating glimpse at life beyond the smartphone.

A little James Dean goes a long way. Our favorite piece from Bespoke Post’s James Dean collection is this striped knit polo from Fieldworth. In collaboration with the James Dean Estate, this was carefully crafted in Portugal to match the high-quality garment Dean favored back in the ’50s. The Breton-inspired stripes give it a little personality, while the knit construction makes it feel more substantial than your typical polo. Wear it with high-waisted trousers and loafers for a vintage-inspired look or keep things simple with some jeans and embrace those leading man vibes.

Your kitchen counter could use a little heat. Rosi’s Hot Oil brings some personality to the condiment collection with an oil can that’s considerably more fun to leave out than another anonymous bottle. It’s the sort of thing that earns a permanent spot next to the stove, ready to add a little heat to pizza, pasta or whatever leftovers need waking up. And there’s something appealingly old-school about the presentation, too. In a world of carefully curated kitchens and matching containers, a little playful packaging is a welcome change. Consider it a small upgrade with plenty of bite.

What if the coolest thing in your bathroom was the soap? Danish designer Matias Møllenbach has turned an everyday essential into a miniature sculpture with OBA, a translucent green sphere that rests on a solid resin cube. The aloe vera version smells as refreshing as it looks, blending aloe, cucumber, citrus and soft woods. It’s an unexpectedly handsome addition to a guest bathroom, although we wouldn’t blame you for keeping it beside your own sink. The best part? The sculptural base is designed to stick around, with replacement soaps available when the original runs out. Who knew washing your hands could feel so design-conscious?
