Monocle has been doing everything from books on good business to bracelets for as long as we’ve been doing this, and the results are always excellent. Their latest release is a collection of guide books in collaboration with Gestalten that are presented in full color, hardcover, and with close to 150 pages of details. The initial releases, London and New York, are definitive travel guides for two of our favorite worldly outposts that will make you feel like a local in a foreign land. Each book covers local spots (restaurants, bars, shops, music venues and museums) that you probably won’t find on any Internet best-of list.

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.
