Normally we’d turn to J. Crew for everything to wear to a beachfront clambake: Faded khaki shorts, a crisp white polo and a distressed leather belt we’d hope to have undone by some 10 in a sundress at the end of the night. The classic clothier wouldn’t normally be the place we’d turn to for kitchen tools however. Something about J. Crew selling this Original Maine Lobster Kit just makes sense though. It fits the whole motif. Cracking some lobsters and a couple of beers during the summer while relaxing with some Blake Lively-eque ladies (don’t interrupt our fantasy) sounds like the perfect beach day to us. Plus, buying the shell-cracker and pick set will help support a company dedicated to finding disabled people employment opportunities, so you can feel good about your awesome anyway purchase.

Huckberry’s Essential Holiday Gift Guide
Unzip your coat and have some mulled wine on the house—you’ve arrived at your final gifting destination: The Holiday Gift Guide. It’s like your friendly neighborhood one-stop holiday shop, except instead of balsa wood ornaments, ours is packed with thoughtful gifts for everyone on your list. Future heirlooms, small-but-significant stocking stuffers, and gear for getting out there (or staying in)—are all right here. There’s no music playing in the background though, so you’ll just have to hum Bing Crosby while you click around instead.
