Paul Smith’s recently relaunched PS collection was an obvious choice for this month’s buyer’s pick.
Earlier this year the eccentric Brit fused the tailored PS collection with the more casual Jeans line, a bold move on Paul’s part that left us with an incredible muted collection with an understated sense of humor that reflects the core values of both collections. The AW16 collection draws in influences from the impeccably tailored classics from the Paul Smith brand and fuses them with contemporary designs typically reserved for the Jeans brand. Expect to see pared-back staples reintegrated into the collection and updated with imported patterns, as well as a range of quality outerwear and knitwear with a generous helping of Paul Smith’s creativity and eye for detail.

There’s nothing better than Autumn/Winter fashion. The layering, the knitwear, the boots - the list goes on. Whether you’re shopping for items to add to your AW16 wardrobe this season or you’re picking out your Christmas party outfit, Psyche have everything you need under one roof. Shop some of our favourite pieces, whatever the occasion; styled and modelled by our Social and Fashion Content Editor, Nicki Elise Elwin. For the ultimate winter look, we’re turning to the magnetising metallic strapless midi dress on p16 to transform us into a Christmas-party goddess. When paired with a suede pair of lace-up Kendal & Kylie’s, you’re ready to make a statement both on-and-off the dance floor. For an off-duty look this Winter, try our favourite high waist Armani Jeans on for size with a distressed oversized knit by Religion. To make the chilly days that bit more bearable, pair your outfit with the classic Michael Kors trench mac and Barbour umbrella; these items lend a hand in ensuring you’re kept snug yet sophisticated this season.
