Founded by Clare Hornby in 2009, ME+EM offer what they like to call “intelligent clothes for now, this season and beyond”. Always flattering and timeless, their pieces are created to look good when styled together, and that includes their essential Breton tops, shirts and palazzo trousers.

Summer invitations gathering pace? If you’re ‘in need of a heel hiatus’, says Marie Claire, ‘SS17’s flats are the perfect solution.’ These flat shoes look good enough to wear with your dressiest looks and, dare we say it, a whole lot cooler too.
