Your Perks: 1) A long-sleeve shirt designed by MIT grads and infused with coffee. We’ll explain. 2) A Jay Z–approved hangover cure so you can continue brunching unabated. 3) Half off all of your autumn shoes. Just in time...
An island is for sale off the coast of Ireland. It was previously owned by John Lennon. And it’s been mostly uninhabited, save for a short spell when a commune took residence there. Now it’s just sheep. And your three-story yurt if you play your cards right.

Bonhams is about to hold its biggest historic-car auction yet. Which means, yes, this will probably be your only chance to own a ’65 Ferrari 275 GTB Berlinetta or a ’36 Lagonda LG45R Rapide Sports-Racing Two-Seater. Or hope the winning bidders don’t mind sharing.

On Kempt: Some strong opinions on Monday Night Football. And Filson launches C.C.
Filson, a collection of substantial jackets to defend against winter’s wrath. Or fall’s

Entourage: great photographer, turns out. Huh.
