Consider this a luxe take on the basics we know and love. Amiss Conception is a relatively new brand based in Los Angeles that makes all of their goods in Italy. That means long sleeve polos, cardigans, sweatpants and shorts—all knit from the finest blend of merino wool and cashmere. The silhouettes are relaxed, the colors classic and the overall vibe is very, very cool. Our favorite? The long-sleeve polo, for sure.

This is the next best thing to renting a vintage car and going on a joyride. The Motoring Journal is a new publication that celebrates the cars and the people who love them, along with the driving experience as a whole. For its first issue, the journal's correspondents explored roads far and wide--from Manhattan and Southern Vermont, to Nairobi and Northern Utah--with each experience expressed through dreamy photography and vivid prose.

Imagine the lovechild of a denim shirt and a cardigan. That's basically what this is. A kimono-style wrap jacket cut from indigo-washed herringbone denim, Universal Works was inspired by the traditional jinbei tops of Japan. Finished with simple fabric side-ties and patch pockets, it looks sharp thrown over a T-shirt or layered over a sweater. And when someone asks you about it (because they no doubt will) just tell them you picked it up on your last trip to Tokyo.

Sure, you're cool. But are you “stocked with truffle mayo” cool? Because, when you pull open the refrigerator door and see this chic jar, you're instantly hit with a shot of culinary confidence. Why? Because Truff, the most sophisticated sauce makers, now offer mayonnaise crafted with organic raw ingredients and packed with the umami depth of black winter truffles. Available in classic or spicy, we've been experimenting with this on burgers, BLTs and mixed into homemade salad dressing and all we can say is ... we're going to need a bigger jar.
