Casual clothing is the glue that holds the rest of your fabulous wardrobe together so it's important you have the best pieces out there.
Whether it's the weekend and you're basing your outfit around casual pieces like jeans and a sweatshirt, or at work pairing your leather midi skirt with a basic top, these are the style staples we rely on. That doesn't mean they have to be boring, on the contrary. Alongside your white shirts and grey t-shirts you need to keep things interesting with some stand-out prints or statement brights. If 'out there' details aren't your thing, try applique flowers or arty monochrome pieces which are bang on trend for SS14.
