Your many moods require clothing to match -- whether it's boots for when you're feeling tough, or sweats when you're certain that no employer/woman will ever have you. Get your head in the game, with Elm Company.

Thrillist - Elm CompanyBased in the Valley, Elm got its start making high-quality fedoras, which have expanded and evolved into the Copeland Collection: a full line of prostitute-wrangling suaveness, for the man who gets sex for free. Recently, Elm's branched out with an assortment of fitted baseball caps made from premium denim, linen, and suede, all with a reinforced crown to keep them as stiff as your hamstrings as you stoop to feed a puppy chocolate. There's also a line of hand-knit snow hats, including the tassle'd Freeman, the half-bill'd Link, and the criss-cross-patterned Crenshaw, for those times you do know, do show, and do care about what's going on in the hood.

As with any broad collection, there are a few pieces whose steez you'll very rarely require, namely the three animal-themed knits -- but don't count them out entirely, because you never know when your mood will shift from "player" to "panda".
