When it comes to building a wardrobe, most people (including us!) purchase their foundation pieces first - solid pencil skirts, tailored jackets, button down shirts, the most incredible fitting pair of pants - before they start choosing more creative pieces with personality. It's safe to say that we have plenty of basics and these days when we go shopping we're looking for something special. Embellishment, a fun sculptural shape, bold patterns and innovative textures all catch our eye and are begging to be taken to the fitting room for a chance to make it into our closet.
Burberry Prorsum is known for luxury in the form of absolutely beautiful clothes and Spring/Summer 2014 is no exception. The jewels used to embellish skirts, jackets and coats are anything but subtle and are sure to garner plenty of attention from approving women while the fit will turn every man's head you walk by. T-shirts and button downs were simple in comparison but still made an impact in lace and patterns while the entire collection's colors were completely warm-weather appropriate in pastels, a few metallics along with stripes and polka dots.
This year is all about the absence of boring. Don't be afraid to step outside of your comfort zone and try some look-at-me pieces while channeling Burberry and keeping things chic with classic silhouettes. We're devising ways to get our hands on every pencil skirt shown while the reinterpretation of the classic Burberry trench has us falling in love with the brand all over again.

| The classic below-the-knee pencil skirts gets an incredibly chic update with embellishment in the form of stunning jewels and pretty textures. |

| With such beautiful pieces on the bottom like this sheer black number and the striped skirt, keep the tops simple in shape while adding personality with texture and pattern. |

| Tired of your simple blazer? Update your look with the coolest rainjacket we've ever seen or a slouchy cardigan jacket in a beautiful shade of powder blue. |

| Black is anything but basic and boring in Burberry's mind: add a tone on tone pattern like this jacquard or leave less to the imagination with a sheer lace number. |

| Burberry is perhaps best known for their classic trench coat and it wouldn't be a complete collection without a few versions. Spring/Summer 2014 may have our absolute favorite interpretations of the coat in pastel shades with embellishment, ever-stylish khaki with scattered jewels and pale gray cashmere. It's hard to choose just one.
