Imagine designing your own artisanal, organic cereal online, and then have it arrive at your doorstep a few days later in a sustainable capsule. Sure beats raisin bran! And that’s the concept behind [Me] & Goji, an ambitious new start-up that allows users to customize their own cereal through their website.

But don’t panic, this weather preference has nothing to do with hatin’ on sunshine, and everything to do with an infamous leather bomber jacket from Claude Maus. It’ll have you hooked with its luxurious soft leather, stitched front paneling, Italian wool lining and the very necessary detachable hood.
