There are plenty of options to bolster your Winter wardrobe this year, so JOE picks the best of the selection from our mates at Arnotts

The style gurus at Arnotts gave JOE a few tips and some very slick gear to change in to from their extensive Autumn/Winter collection, and we didn’t look too bad if we do say so ourselves.

JOE editor Mike Sheridan looks particularly moody here as he contemplates Nietzsche’s Thus Spake Zarathustra, which he’s just finished reading. You can’t see the book, but it’s in the background just out of shot, trust us.

Here, Mike is sporting a Selected Homme Shirt (€49.95) with a muted but stylish pattern that works well with the Ted Baker Waistcoat & Suit Jacket (€150 & €350 respectively). The waistcoat can be very formal as part of a three-piece suit, but it’s guaranteed to make what you’re wearing instantly stylish if you pair it with some classic jeans like the French Connection Denims (€85) here. It’s a great way to make a simple and casual outfit more formal with minimal effort.

It should be noted that the waistcoat shouldn’t be used as a fashion crutch to try and make yourself more stylish without knowing when to wear it and what to pair it with, but it is a piece that should definitely be in your wardrobe.

Kurt Geiger is pretty much the man when it comes to getting shod, and the blue numbers that Mike is wearing here (€69) are excellently priced. They’re just out of shot, but they are very cool, trust us.
