If I could choose one place to shop for the rest of my life, it would have to be Sezane. I always have a wish list as long as my arm saved on the French brand's website, and frequently make pilgrimages to its two London stores to stroke all the beautiful handbags and rifle through rails of gorgeous dresses and separates.
Sezane channels that nonchalant, Parisian chic vibe that women worldwide have been trying to emulate for decades. And living in a mini French enclave myself (south London is full of French expats, and all the more stylish for it) I've spotted many Sezane pieces on my well-dressed French friends. The Princess of Wales is also a fan, particularly of the brand's earrings (royal style hunters say she has worn at least seven different pairs from Sezane).
Okay, it's not super cheap, but the quality does tend to be very good in my experience - plus if you ever decide to part with a piece, Sezane holds its value very well on secondhand sites like Vinted and eBay.
Here's what I'm coveting right now to build my dream French-inspired summer wardrobe, starting with the perfect holiday co-ord...
