###### ***CREATED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH KAREN MILLEN***

The affordable label has really come into its own this season; we’re loving their grown-up wrap dresses, weather-appropriate shirting and party-ready jumpsuits for a polished transitional edit.  
  
Some pieces are worth snapping up now before they’re gone – that means flattering pencil skirts and killer eveningwear – or try bright, silky tops and lace peplum dresses for a statement night-time look. All these pieces are wearable now; just layer with a jacket come autumn. Win.
