Amanda Holden looked absolutely incredible on Wednesday (March 6) as she swapped out her usual figure-hugging dresses for a contrasting black-and-white suit from Karen Millen. Best of all, the set she wore just so happens to be on sale.
Her blazer costs £111.20, down from £139, and the matching trousers are reduced to £167.20 from £209. With both pieces available in sizes six to 16, the Karen Millen suit is effortlessly chic while skimming and flattering your figure.
Sharing her 'outfit of the day' as she so often does from HeartFM, where she presents her morning radio show, the actress and Britain's Got Talent star posted a video in which she described the details of her sophisticated contrasting look - which included one item she 'never' wears.

We think this suit and trainers look is stunning (Amanda Holden Instagram)Starting off her video, the 52-year-old had her blonde hair floating past her shoulder and said: "Oh my goodness, good morning. It is humpy day. And in honour of humpy day I'm wear flats!" - a statement that was followed by Amanda flashing her hands and mimicking a siren.
"I never ever wear flats unless I'm going off for a run. But look at these," she continued as she propped her leg up on a table to show off the shoes. "These are so nice. They are so comfy. They are from Toteme." Retailing at £320, the Totême trainers fitted in perfectly with Amanda's "cool" Karen Millen suit that we are completely in love.

She remarked, modelling the two piece: "I just feel kinda of cool and Kelly Hoppenish [a famous South African-British interior designer]."
Explaining where it's from, Amanda shared how the Karen Millen jacket, which is black all over and features elegant thick white piping on the jacket's lapels and edge which gives it a timeless but unique finish, is double breasted. The wide leg trousers which match the top have two race-track stripes travelling down each side of the wide leg fabric for a minimalist but striking look. While these two garments together will usually set you back over £300, for those wanting to recreate this combo you're in luck as both items have been reduced in Karen Millen's spring sale with the trousers now costing £111.20 and the jacket £167.20, meaning you can save yourself over £100.
Underneath the suit, the presenter had on an "amazing" cute thick strap black crop top by Victoria Beckham - her Body Strap Bandeau Top In Black, which retails at £111. To top it off, Kate Spade's Expo Top-handle bag tied the whole outfit together - and was one accessory Amanda was most excited for as she said: "It's this bag that we need to discuss!" However, we hate to bring you bad news but this style has sadly sold out on Kate Spade's website and we've been unable to locate it elsewhere.
As soon as Amanda shared her ensemble with her Instagram followers, her comments section was overwhelmed with comments remarking on her outfit.
One said: "So funky Amanda. Love it."
Another added: "Zowie!!.. you look amazing, in that statement suit."
"Looks really lovely.. Think that style really suits you. Very practical without being boring," chimed a third - although some people declared the suit would look better with her standard footwear: heels.
If you're a big fan of the monochromatic look but want a little more of a statement when it comes to the white lapel, this black contrast tux blazer from Mint Velvet is on sale for £99 down from £199 and contrasts its black jacket with a white collar with a peaked lapel. Fancy something equal parts black and white - and you're more of a blazer-dress kind of gal - this Double Breasted Feather Trim Blazer Dress from Boohoo is £36 down from £45 and is half white and half black, for a real bold look.
But if Amanda's suit from Karen Millen is the perfect look for your next party or you just want a bold look for your office wardrobe, then you can get the jacket from here and trousers here.
