Spring is (allegedly) on its way, and since the sunshine is currently streaming through the windows at M.E. towers today after yesterday's downpour, this fashion tidbit may be of use very soon...

Paul Smith's latest collection recently dropped into our inbox and we thought we'd share his simple solution for looking sharp as winter ebbs away and woollens start looking too heavy.

This season, the label explores the form and functionality of the traditional men’s shirt, and the catwalk show featured girls with rockabilly hair and dark shades, blurring the gender boundaries in crisp, boyish loose-fit shirts teamed with slim trousers, rolled or cropped above the ankle.

In short: Effortless spring cool.

Above are our picks from the catwalk and the new online pieces from Paul's various lines.
