Next's €54 summer dress is so perfect shoppers 'wish it came in more colours'
Next customers are raving about a 'gorgeous' summer dress they're keen to snap up in several different colours.
Hailed as the ideal choice for both chic evening affairs, like seaside cocktail sessions on holiday, or more relaxed daytime activities like picnics in the park, this high street find is causing quite a stir.
Priced at €54 and sold online, the Jersey Waisted Summer Dress comes in an array of colours such as cream, navy, chocolate brown, and olive green. It also accommodates a broad range of sizes from 6 to 22 and offers a petite option for those who need it.
Next have labelled this breezy number as "ideal for summer", perfect for both "beachside cocktails or picnics in the park". They've highlighted its "versatile and timeless" style which includes a "flattering" neckline, waist details and practical side pockets.
The stylish Next dress has proven to be a hit with many shoppers. The high street retailer says that it can be effortlessly "dressed up with sandals and heels or down with your favourite trainers", depending on the vibe you're after, as reported by the Mirror.
Customers are heaping praise on the item, as one shopper gushed: "Gorgeous fit and style with quality fabric and a silky, cotton texture. It's not see-through and has pockets. I love this dress so much, I've bought it in the two other colours too."
Another chimed in, saying: "Lovely dress and so comfortable to wear." And a third added: "Looks so simple but looks and fits amazingly."
Another comment came from a happy buyer read: "Excellent product, fits well. The material is soft and washes and irons easily. I have bought both navy and cream. I wish they did more colours."
The retailer has noted a disclaimer on their website alerting shoppers that "this product has a smaller fit than usual", possibly explaining why some customers felt the need to opt for a larger size.
Criticism hasn't gone unnoticed though, with one customer stating: "The material was completely see-through and the top was very tight. Item was returned."
Nonetheless, glowing reviews dominated the feedback. A fifth fan left a five-star rating, highlighting: "A flattering fit, high waistline, smooth fabric feel, and so easy to wear in warmer nights yet also cooler evenings due to the length. Perfect paired with flats or a wedge."

Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz snub family again after marriage comments
Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz have apparently given his family the cold shoulder once more. The couple, in shedding light on their nuptial bliss—supposed to be creating waves within the Beckham clan—are also at the heart of rumours swirling around a spat involving young Brooklyn, 26, alongside his famous father David and fashionista mother Victoria. Gossip has it that trouble began brewing three years back during the wedding prep phase as mum Victoria backed out of designing Nicola's bridal gown. In a notable move last month, Brooklyn missed out on all the festivities for his father David's milestone 50th birthday even though earlier social media activity suggested he'd been in London. Word has it he did reach out to his parents hoping for an intimate get-together, only to be turned down. Curiously silent on public channels during David's birthday, Brooklyn instead took to Instagram over the weekend to pen a heartfelt message to his brother-in-law Will Peltz. Amidst this backdrop, he's recently spoken up, hinting at the speculated family rift by noting: "There will always be people who talk. The important thing is that we're happy together." In a candid chat with Germany's Glamour Magazine, Brooklyn Beckham shared his golden rule for romance: "always be honest.", reports the Mirror. Nicola Peltz didn't hold back on praising her own folks, Nelson Peltz and Claudia Heggner Peltz, telling the publication, "My parents taught me: Always tell the truth, we'll help you. I still carry this attitude of being open and honest deep in my heart today. You never regret it. On the contrary: True closeness only comes from genuine connection, that is, when you have the courage to be honest." Brooklyn also let slip about a heartfelt tattoo tribute he's got for his mother-in-law, featuring rosary beads on his hands. Since the interview hit the stands, there's been nary a peep from Brooklyn's parents or his siblings, Romeo and Cruz, leading to what seems like an awkward silence. On another note, Victoria Beckham, the Spice Girls legend, is reportedly finding the family tension hard to stomach as Brooklyn will always be her darling boy. An insider confided in us, saying, "He's her first-born and they've always had a wonderful relationship, she feels like Nicola has taken over and it's really tough to deal with as a mother." David Beckham, on the other hand, is rumoured to have expressed to Victoria that Brooklyn's actions are "unacceptable." The source continued, revealing, "She's very family-oriented, so it's a worry that Brooklyn and Nicola will start their own family and Victoria won't have contact with her first grandchild – it's a devastating thought." Friends of the family have suggested that Nicola is behind her husband's social media posts, which notably included ignoring his grandfather's birthday, but also featured a snap of him enjoying a pint just a stone's throw away from the Beckham family residence in West London. "She is stirring up trouble where there isn't any and rifts are appearing everywhere," an insider revealed to the Mirror about Nicola. However, a source close to the socialite and Brooklyn has vehemently denied allegations that she is "controlling" him and alienating him from his family. They told us: "She is not isolating him at all. He is free to do what he wants and he loves his wife and they are happy together. They are each other's family." They added that Brooklyn's post declaring he would "always choose" Nicola had been misinterpreted. They added: "It's a real shame that what Brooklyn did, which was a declaration of love for his wife, is being portrayed as something that it's not. "He loves his wife and everyone should be proud: his parents, his family friends. He stands by his wife and that's a normal thing to be a loving and supportive husband." A spokesperson for Nicola and Brooklyn Peltz-Beckham has been contacted by the Mirror.

Baby name experts list six 'outdated' names new parents should steer clear of
Choosing a name for your newborn can be a tricky and daunting task, but two baby name consultants have shared six old-fashioned names that new parents might want to avoid. British professional baby namer SJ Strum and Boston-based consultant Colleen Slagen have compiled a list of names they recommend to clients, but there are a select few they suggest bypassing. Colleen advises against sturdy, old-school monikers like Linda, Karen, and Janet, which she believes are falling out of fashion, while SJ warns parents off what she terms "1990s norm-core dad names" such as Gary, Stuart, and Ian. Speaking to the Daily Mail, SJ described pregnancy as "such a bamboozling time. She added that picking a name is just one of the overwhelming number of decisions expectant parents face, reports the Mirror. She believes that enlisting an expert to choose a baby's name can transform the process into "one of the most joyous and bonding parts of your pregnancy." "Couples want a name that tells their story," she says, delving into personal details such as hobbies, university studies, and where they first met to find the perfect fit. SJ also mentioned receiving last-minute messages from delivery rooms, with parents desperate for help naming their newborn. She offers sage advice for resolving deadlocks when one parent is fixated on a name the other detests. SJ offers a cheeky tip for those stuck with a partner's preferred boys' name they can't stand: "That normally gets them off it pretty quick," she reveals, suggesting you claim it's the name of an ex. For parents-to-be mulling over names for their little girl, SJ recommends timeless options like Olivia, Emma, Charlotte, or Sofia, while James, Henry, Lucas, or William are equally classic choices for boys. SJ also highlights some novel trends in baby naming, noting: "'Nature names are becoming popular: River is rising up the ranks. I'm also seeing a lot of whimsical names that hark back to virtues, such as Sage." She observes that following the passing of celebrities or notable figures, there's often a spike in the popularity of their names, adding: "We saw lots of variations on Elizabeth after the late Queen passed away, and Bowie after David died in 2016." Before finalising a name, SJ advises giving it a test run: "What does it feel like to say it out loud?". Sharing her own experience, SJ points out practical aspects to consider: "Will you be asked to spell it in a coffee shop? "I had a client who loved the name Persephone, but did the coffee shop test and decided it was far too much of a mouthful".

Another purchaser noted: " Lovely dress and great length, I like it so much I have bought the navy striped one too. Very comfortable to wear and no need for tights." Whilst most feedback is positive, there were some gripes about the fit and fabric quality stating: "It was not a good fit or very flattering. The material was very stiff."
