Here & Now

Heart and Sole

It's a shoe that wants you to walk long distances in comfort and in style. Gore-Tex has partnered with Stuart Weitzman to put out shoes with 100 percent waterproof fabric technology. Your feet stay dry, cool and comfortable in all climates. Skip the valet with these. Stuart Weitzman Raindance Gore-Tex boot, $425, Stuart Weitzman at the Forum Shops at Caesars

Watch It

Doesn't it have a nice resemblance to the watch your dad wore while you were growing up? That's what we like about it. It's a subtle approach to the menswear trend the fashion industry hasn't been able to let go of in recent seasons. Pile some bangles on top for a nice contrast. Michael Kors gold-plated stainless steel watch, $250, Michael Kors

In the Bag

A fine handbag at an even finer price is hard to come by. In fact, you can only come by the Mulberry for Target bags between now and December. The English luxury leather goods brand makes craftsmanship a priority and incorporates an artisan approach with every design. Add modest prices to that equation and you have a recessionista's dream.

Number One

The new men's fragrance from Dolce & Gabbana is a follow up to The One for Men. Still featuring Matthew McConaughey as the face of its campaign, The One Gentleman appeals to a man's "discernment and gentility." The notes boast pepper, grapefruit, lavender, cardamom, patchouli and vanilla. Dolce & Gabbana The One Gentleman eau de toilette, $42 for 1 oz., Saks Fifth Avenue
