Multi-functional fashion at its very best. If you tend to pile way too much in your bag (or pockets) when you're walking out the door, this scarf would be a brilliant way to hang on to a couple bucks, a scrap of paper and a pencil, and a phone—or whatever you deem your basic essentials. Comes in a bunch of different plaids, all equally awesome, and a great price for some stylish autumn warmth.
Yes, it's summer. Sure, many of you are most likely enjoying long balmy afternoons that shift seamlessly into warm—even steamy—evenings. Here in San Francisco, however, when the sun sets (and often long before) it's time to bundle up and break out the winter wear. If you too stick a scarf in your bag whenever you leave the house, these upcycled, handmade, one-of-a-kind wool wonders from Kelley Deal (she of The Breeders fame) would be a good bet for keeping warm while looking darn cool. Available from Wire & Twine.
For those who dream big that a super-secret superhero can exist beneath a pair of black-rimmed glasses, these special frames are especially for you. Designed by Project Selima & Matt (alter egos: Selima Salaun and Matt Singer), they can be fitted with prescription lenses or simply used for going incognito, and all proceeds go directly to the Brooklyn Superhero Supply Company, part of 826 Valencia's network to help encourage kids to write.
The Portland, Oregon, studio of plainMADE trades in hand-made goods that feel especially cozy. For a mere $65 this merino wool scarf can be yours. The red tips give it (and by extension, you) loads of character, especially when tossed over a muted blazer or winter coat.
Penguin Grenade's t-shirt says it all, so simply and so well: Do not mess with Brian Wilson or his fearsome facial hair. The San Francisco Giants are on track to rough up those Texas Rangers again tonight, so tune into game three of the World Series and cheer on our boys in black-and-orange. #GOGIANTS!!!!!!!
