PySide is available on pip now, you can simply install it by using pip command

pip install PySide

Python Installer after 2.7.9 and later (on the python2 series), and Python 3.4 and later include pip (pip3 for Python 3) by default. But remember to add it to the 'PATH' environment variable before you run it in a command line window (Windows+R).Python Install
