LISTEN
1-Bit Symphony
What: New Yorker Tristan Perich’s genius new electronic composition ($29). A single microchip performs the five-movement piece each time anew rather than just playing a recording.
Why: Sniff the lo-fi technology. All the guts are wired into a jewel case from which you play, fast-forward, skip tracks, and control the volume.

GET COZY
OW Socks
What: Pippi Longstocking, Shari Lewis, and Rainbow Brite all knew it — quirky socks project an endearing eccentricity. Join in with starred or striped stockings ($21-$31) from Japan.
Why: Sock season is always around the corner.

DDF Revolve 400X
What: The breakthrough cleansing and exfoliating device’s continuous rotation provides microdermabrasion and deep cleansing benefits while gently polishing away day-to-day imperfections you normally hide underneath makeup.
Why: Eliminate foundation for fall.
When: Now. Women report enhanced skin appearance after just one use, so start the season with naturally beautiful skin.

REEVALUATE
Tibi
What: The go-to house for blithe feminine separates and effortless printed dresses ushers in e-commerce with a bang and a blog that takes you into the mind of designer Amy Smilovic.
Why: Au moment, there are some leather shorts ($585) and a chiffon Grecian dress ($435) we would love to party in.

John Robshaw Textiles Sale
What: If you can’t travel the world collecting beautiful linens (what a pleb), fake it with 40 percent off select spring collection items ($21-$354), like tribal-printed pillows, luxe duvets, graphic dhurries, and more.
Why: Buying new sheets instead of washing the dirty ones is indulgent and encouraged.

Tili Bags
What: Really fancy reusable baggies ($8-$9). The jewel-tone patterns are so attractive one intern asked if she could have a few to hang up in her room.
Why: We suspect it may have something to do with how cheerful they make loose change, travel toiletries, and stationery collections look.
