The Opening Ceremony boutique in New York City is like Willy Wonka's chocolate factory for menswear geeks. Walls drip with an impeccably chosen selection of international designers (often unknown), while the store's own line of beautifully understated basics rounds out the two-floor treasure trove.

Unfortunately, this kind of fashion heaven isn't cheap and in lieu of any sort of "golden ticket" discovery, us regular folks will probably just have to keep our eyes peeled for great deals on OC gear like this rather splendid oversize cardigan at 50 percent off.

We suggest combining it with a shirt for a more formal look or simply throwing it on over jeans and a T-shirt to beat the fall chills. ($137.00 from Tobi.com)
