Summer seems to be escaping us sooner than we had imagined. Flashes of sunlight occasionally break through the cloud cover and it’s evident that it’s time to focus on what’s coming next. What better day to plan ahead than Monday? The beginning of the week is a time of focus and optimism, so let’s look to next season’s wardrobe. Brighter colours take their leave to be replaced by muted, natural hues: dark greens, browns and greys aplenty. On the material side of things, linen becomes wool and canvas becomes suede. Enjoy the Top 5 Items To Drop This Week, including products from Miansai, Paul Smith, WANT Les Essentiels, ETQ Amsterdam and A Day’s March.
A Day’s March Army Herringbone Original Overshirt
A Day’s March has made a name for itself by providing men’s wardrobes with affordable, high-quality staples. The Original Overshirt is one of the label's most popular designs thanks to its hard-wearing 100% cotton construction. This army herringbone example deserves pride of place in your wardrobe.
WANT Les Essentiels Black Leather O'Hare Kastrup Backpack
Crafted from WANT Les Essentiels’ signature premium leather, the O'Hare Kestrup Backpack is a viable option for all situations: smart or casual, short or long journeys. Featuring an internal laptop pocket, keychain and zippered privacy pocket to the back panel as well as a custom padlock and keys for the main pocket, this backpack is as versatile as bags come.
Paul Smith Dark Navy Blue / Black Reflex Slim Jeans
Paul Smith’s ability to create casual clothing with a formal edge deserves recognition. The Dark Navy Blue / Black Reflex Slim Jeans use Paul Smith’s Reflex denim which features a hint of stretch for added comfort. The dark navy finish is complemented by petrol blue stitching details for a signature bold finish.
Miansai Sterling Silver 3mm Chain Necklace
What began as a label that specialised in bracelets has grown to become an all-encompassing luxury accessories brand. Miansai’s approach to jewellery focuses on quality and subtlety, as exemplified by this sterling silver 3mm chain. The understated piece is oxidised for a vintage finish that tops off the low-key style.
ETQ Amsterdam Charcoal CB 01 Chelsea Boots
Famed for its sneakers, ETQ Amsterdam has explored new territory in recent seasons. For Autumn/Winter 2019, we’re treated to a pair of premium Chelsea boots. Imagined in premium Italian suede with a calfskin lining, the boot features a double-stitched outsole made from natural crepe. Durable and stylish, this pair is a seasonal essential.
