Watch-lovers, here’s one more reason to get to New York immediately. From November 3 to 22, Jaeger-LeCoultre’s exhibition “Reverso Stories” will be on view at Iron23. It explores nine decades of the Reverso timepiece’s remarkable history, including the 180 separate skills brought together at its Manufacture in the Vallée de Joux, and offers a hands-on watchmaking workshop and the 1931 Café, which serves an Art Deco–inspired menu. Historic watches will be presented alongside the 2023 Reverso collection, which launched earlier this year at the Watches and Wonders fair. And two new Reverso Tribute Enamel models will be unveiled.

Every winter, we fall hard for a cashmere purveyor du moment, and this year is no different. After dabbling in the universe of Lisa Yang over the past few seasons, we are making more serious investments in our future together. Yang’s design studio is in Stockholm, and her knit sweaters, dresses, and pants reflect a minimalist, Scandi sensibility. But that’s only part of the reason why her clothes are irresistible; her relentlessness about quality is what really distinguishes her pieces, which are produced in Inner Mongolia and are GOTS-certified organic. Right now, we’re most entranced by the Kerry polo, made of brushed cashmere. It’s tempting to invest in the matching pencil skirt as well, thus positioning us nicely for an entirely knit-swathed season (which is always the goal). ($930, lisa-yang.com) —Ashley Baker

There can be a certain alchemy to a brand collaboration. Such was the case when Austin Austin, a father-daughter-run organic-beauty-and-homeware brand out of Norfolk, partnered with Matthew Raw, a ceramist and former V&A artist in residence, to create a quirky capsule collection. The Cedar Atlas & Ylang Ylang Scented Candle is a winner. It combines a clay tumbler hand-dipped in high-gloss cobalt glaze by Raw with Austin Austin’s hand-poured, slow-burning, and delicately scented candle.

I’ve had a complicated relationship with Austin lately. On the one hand, it’s the Texas city that most collectively and unabashedly challenges the backward politics of its state. But I also worry its overdevelopment and recent invasion by Tesla and other Silicon Valley behemoths is zapping its soul. Alas, there’s newfound hope with the arrival of First Light, a bookstore housed in a former post office in Austin’s Hyde Park neighborhood, which devotes as much attention to its identity as a progressive-leaning community hub as it does to the titles lining its shelves. There are author discussions, highly opinionated reading lists by local figures, books, and stylish desk supplies galore. And true to its name, an early-morning-coffee window for caffeine-seeking daybreakers. Inside, there’s an all-day café that morphs into a splendid evening wine bar with salty snacks, and savory meat-and-cheese spreads served up on Fredericks & Mae cutting boards. My N.Y.C.-based book should really consider a field trip. (firstlightaustin.com) —Laura Neilson
