Next shoppers wowed by £12 dress that's 'good quality and really comfortable'
Customers at Next have been raving about one of the fashion retailer's summer dresses, calling it 'lovely quality' and 'very comfortable'. Even more exciting, this dress has now entered Next's latest clearance sale, making it more affordable than ever before.
Originally priced at £28, Next's Linen Floral Print V-Neck Ruffle Sleeve Mini Dress has seen a dramatic price drop to just £12.50. This reduction allows savvy shoppers to save around £15 - they could even buy two and still spend less than the original price.
There are four different colourful patterns available, including leopard print, a blue floral design, red and pink wiggle stripes, and a gentle brown tile pattern. Additionally, two fits are offered: regular and petite. Most sizes, ranging from six to 26, are still available, according to Plymouth Live.
This mini-length dress features a V-neck collar and short ruffle sleeves crafted from a light linen-blend fabric. In the product description, Next says: "The versatile design allows this dress to be dressed up for formal occasions or worn casually for a laid-back everyday look."
Other options from Next include the £20 Tile Print Sleeveless V-Neck Slouch Dress and this Jersey Midi Summer Dress priced at £22. Elsewhere, several retailers are offering similar ruffle sleeve mini dresses. New Look has a Blue Floral Print Ruffle Trim Mini Dress on sale for £17. ASOS features a Topshop flutter sleeve mini tea dress in black rose print for £25, down from £45. For a more upscale option, Debenhams carries Coast's Frill Shoulder Mini Dress for £31.
Next's Linen Floral Print V-Neck Ruffle Sleeve Mini Dress is easy to care for as it is machine washable, made from a blend of 70% Livaeco viscose and 30% linen. This dress has received an impressive customer rating of 4.2 out of 5 stars, along with numerous five-star reviews from satisfied customers, many of whom were so enamoured that they bought it in several colours.
One customer said: "I love this dress I wear it over scarlet wide leg linen pants. I bought the petite so it fits better. I also bought the blue and white print." Another said: "I'm very pleased with this dress. It's good quality and really comfortable to wear. A definite holiday favourite for me."
A third said: "Fits beautifully, colour very flattering, easy to pack and unpack! Not washed it yet but sure it will be easy to wash and no ironing. What more could you want from a lovely holiday dress." However, not all shoppers were pleased. One customer commented: "Too big returned it need smaller size as dress if far more loose fitting than some of the linen dresses I have purchased from next."
Another said: "I should have read previous reviews. It's a little big. But, in the summer months or on holiday, a floaty dress will be cooling. Pretty colours." A third shopper said: "Pleased with dress but had to buy a smaller size than normal - very large fit but nice quality material and design."
Despite these comments, most of the feedback was positive. A satisfied customer said: "Absolutely beautiful design it looks designer and fits absolutely perfectly I get so many compliments." Another praised: "Lovely quality summer dress." Someone said: "Very good fit and love the dress altogether." One more put: "Excellent. Nice fit and lightweight cool for this weather."

New Look shoppers rush for £19 'light summer shacket with plenty of pockets'
"I wanted a light jacket for the summer, this is perfect, good quality, fits great." With only two weeks of summer left, the weather will start to cool off soon. But temperatures will stay mild enough into September, so being able to wear a light layer instead of a thick winter coat can be a game changer going into the start of autumn. With that in mind, New Look shoppers have been rushing to buy a reduced Four Pocket Shell Shacket, cut down from its original price of £45.99, down to £19 if you opt for the colour "stone". The shacket is available in the stone colour in sizes 6-12 - but it's selling fast. It is also available in black and khaki, reports the Liverpool Echo. With a relaxed fit, the jacket looks perfect for keeping warm on days with confused temperatures, with a collar for a smart aesthetic. It has long sleeves with four buttoned flap pockets with zip and press stud fastening. On the New Look website, the full product description reads: "This stone shell shacket will make a trusty addition to your line up of outerwear for cold climes. It's designed with four flap pockets and zips all the way up to lock in warmth." Stone Four Pocket Shell Shacket £45.99 £19 New Look Shop Product Description But it's selling so fast that shoppers may wish to browse the market for similar 'shackets', for when this New Look version sells out. For shoppers that like a touch of pink, Roman is selling this Light Pink Lightweight Hooded Jacket for £44 instead of £55 in the sale. It features a funnel neck with a flattering drawstring waist to cinch you in. Next has also reduced the price of this Khaki Relaxed Ruched Sleeve Blazer for £45. Back on the New Look website, shoppers have rated the shacket a 4.6 out of 5 in the product reviews. One shopper said: "Lovely jacket for the summer, lightweight with plenty of pockets for all my rubbish if I decide not to go out with a bag." A second review read: "I wanted a light jacket for the summer, this is perfect, good quality, fits great." A third shopper added: "Great utility jacket. Good quality and looks high quality." A fourth glowing review read: "Lovely jacket, nice and light." In terms of negative reviews, a few shoppers did note the 'expensive' price of the shacket, which is why it's best to snap it up now whilst it's on sale. One customer noted: "Nice jacket, fits well, true to size, a little expensive for what it is, but I really like it!" The shacket is available on the New Look website.

Boden's 'gorgeous' £250 coat perfect for autumn now £100
Boden shoppers have been raving about a trench coat that they say is perfect for autumn. The Windsor Heritage Mac was £250 but is now £100, offering a £150 save for fashion enthusiasts. The coat is available in petite and regular fits with UK sizes ranging from eight to 22 while sizes four and six are currently unavailable. The Windsor Heritage Mac comes in a rich hazelnut brown and a "jazzy" checked lining which makes this coat stand out. You could easily style it with a pair of denim jeans, a thin jumper, and your favourite tee underneath for a more completed look. From superstar gigs to cosy pubs, find out What's On in Wales by signing up to our newsletter here. However this coat could also be styled for more formal settings. Boden's description of the Windsor Heritage Mac reads: "Our Windsor heritage mac is just about as British as a cup of tea and queuing. We've taken the classic mac and modernised it with a boxier cut and raglan sleeves, then finished it with a jazzy checked lining that peeks out at the collar and cuffs too." The mac is made out of 100% cotton in the main section while the lining is crafted from 100% cotton. It also comes with functional pockets, as do most of Boden's clothing, but they are tacked closed to help the garment hold its shape. The tacking is designed to be removed. The Windsor Heritage Mac also comes with an oversized look – a loose fitting which means there is plenty of room to move. It is also designed to fall at mid-calf and has a button fastening at the front. While the coat is water-resistant Boden recommends that it is dry clean only. If you are looking for a similar looking coat that is ideal for the autumn but from an alternative retailer Next has the Trench Coat with Contrast Collar in khaki green colour for £85. Meanwhile the Faux Suede Belted Trench Coat in a tan colour from New Look has a cheaper price tag at £45. Back at Boden the Windsor Heritage Mac has received a rating of 4.5 out of five stars based on 29 reviews. "Oh my goodness, could this coat be any more perfect," one customer said. "Beautifully made and the fabric is a perfect weight for an Australian winter. The lining is just that hint of fun that Boden is so well known for. I did downsize this coat as our Winter weather here in Melbourne AU doesn't call for bulking up with a huge amount of layers and I'm glad I did. It will wear perfectly with a shirt and a thin jumper. I purchased a 14 and I normally wear a 16 but I'll still state the sizing is spot on. Extremely happy with this classic Mac." Another buyer reviewed: "I love love this mac coat. It's very high quality, the colour is fabulous and fit is true to size. I prefer a slightly oversized look, so will be exchanging for the next size up. Great value for the money. The checked inside lining is a great touch. Don't wait, get your size before it is gone." A third remarked: "Just what I have been looking for. Can't wait to wear in the autumn. Perfect sizing too". But not everyone was happy with their purchase. One reviewer commented: "Beautiful well made coat with a lovely cheerful check lining. Liked the colour and it fitted true to size. Unfortunately for me it was heavier than I expected, and it was quite a straight coat. I was looking for a lighter more flared shape, so sadly had to return it, but a very nice coat for the right person." However, most were happy with the coat. "Beautiful mac/raincoat," one said. "Excellent quality. Very stylish and wonderful colour with the check adding extra style. I can't wait to wear it. I am just short of 5ft (ordered petite) and it fit perfectly. They say you get what you pay for. Extremely, good value for money. Thank you."
