Imma say it out loud - I adore Karen Millen. The pieces aren't cheap but dammit, I think they're worth it. For me, it's the cut and the tailoring of the garments that ensure their place in my capsule wardrobe.
And when I saw their new SS14 collection, I did clap my hands a little and make a little space in my walk-in closet (actually it's just a normal wardrobe but if I was very small I could possibly walk through it so I like to refer to it in fancy terms).
This collection has lots of stylish building blocks and luxurious, easy separates - think white cotton shirts, patch worked denim, leather jackets, wrap skirts and slouchy jumpers. I always think dresses when I think Karen Millen, and this season's frocks combine mesh, laser punched textures, sheer and opaque fabrics.
From denim to whites, and from suits to cutes, we've selected some of our favourite pieces.
