Some collaborations make sense right from the start. Case in point: the laidback, casual clothes of Taylor Stitch and Danny Dooreck's cool, understated and playful pottery. The TS x Danny D's Mudshop capsule collection features stuff you'd see the stylish ceramist wearing—from a washed work jacket to this camp collar shirt featuring the tattoo-inspired characters you'd see emblazoned on his pieces.

Is it too soon for a fall jacket? Of course. But will you kick yourself if you miss out on this stylish and extremely affordable Barbour dupe from UNIQLO that sold out last year? Also yes. It's now restocked and comes in three stylish, tonal shades. The fit is cropped, the pockets are aplenty and it's accented by a corduroy collar and cuff details, along with a checked lining.

Art lights will elevate your space and showcase your favorite painting, print or photograph. Of course, you tend to only find them in galleries or the homes of extremely fancy friends, because they tend to be expensive and require expert installation. These cordless lights mimic the same style without the hardship of having to hardwire anything. The dimmable, built-in LED bulb will emit eight to 12 hours of light before needing to be recharged.

Is it preppy or is it sporty? Who cares. This retro-inspired sweatshirt from Lacoste looks like something you might catch Jeremy Allen White rocking on his day off. Available in three colorways, it features the brand's signature double face piqué fabric, a stitched polo collar and a three-button snap placket. The fit is relaxed and slightly oversized (they suggest sizing down if you want a more standard, fitted size). Right now, wear it with some nylon shorts and then layer it over a tee with your favorite jeans come fall.

Set the vibe in your home with this cool candle. It's got a minimal design and a rich scent that fills a room without feeling heavy or too overpowering. Comprised of coconut and soy-based wax, the clean-burning candle will stay lit for around 55 hours and won't produce much soot or smoke. Formulated with vegan-friendly ingredients, the woody cedar scent is complemented with hints of warm saffron and green notes of moss and fresh neroli citrus.
