You could probably use an extra layer, right? It not only adds some much-needed insulation during the coldest days of winter, but it also provides a shot of textural style to any fit. One that you can wear three seasons out of the year, so you should invest in a good one. Le Alfré makes one of our favorites. Cut from a super soft Portuguese fleece, it provides cozy warmth without the bulk and is finished with contrast trim and a two-way YKK zipper with a leather pull tag.

Has there been a bad Timex collaboration with Todd Snyder yet? I don't think so. They only seem to be getting better, right? For his latest, the designer said he was looking to create “the horological equivalent of that moment in Goldfinger when James Bond steps out of the ocean and removes his wetsuit to reveal a tuxedo.” The new Timex Q Two-Tone combines the swagger of a '70s dive watch vibe with a gold-and-silver color story of a dress watch.

Do you remember when that $20 UNIQLO bag went viral? It shot up to the top of Lyst's quarterly index of the hottest items in the fashion industry and basically sold out worldwide. (I couldn't even get one at the flagship in Tokyo.) It made sense. It had a minimalist, modern style, came in a slew of colors and promised easy on-the-go storage for just twenty bucks. Finally, it came back in stock (don't worry, I finally got one) and now it's back for 2024 with a Marimekko collaboration, boasting a unique tonal blown-up print.

Winter is notoriously tough on skin. And our hands take the most abuse, right? I wish I were better about applying hand cream, but I never really remember throughout the day. Which is why I'm glad Soft Services is re-introducing their popular overnight repair hand cream, Theraplush. They not only re-engineered the formula (which coats hands and gets to work softening and conditioning the skin so you wake up with noticeably improved hands), but they improved on the container, too. The clever vessel looks like a piece of pottery, but pull the magnetized top off and it reveals a secret pump—press down and it dispenses the perfect serving of lotion to rub in before you crash.

This has got a little bit of everything. It's like the love child of a vintage cardigan and a shirt jacket—cozy, cool and a little bit sexy. Available in three different colorways, each one features a textural crochet knit, a wide collar and a cropped waist that hits right at your belt line. And in person, it looks ... expensive. No one would think you copped it for less than a hundred bucks.
