Chloe Bag, $1,650, Chloé, New York, 212.717.8220

The Decent Proposal, By Kemper Donovan, $26, harpercollins.com
“I couldn’t be more excited about this debut novel, which—full disclosure—is written by my brother-in-law! But I would have loved it anyway, because it’s built on such a tantalizing premise: Would you agree to spend two hours a week with a stranger—just talking—to collect a half-million dollars at the end of a year? It’s a romantic tale with a heart and a brain—and a mystery that will keep you turning the pages.”
