Zara Tindall's favourite polka dot dress is 30% off - grab yours before it's gone
Good news: Zara Tindall 's favourite LK Bennett dress is back in stock - and it's currently 30% off.
Zara wore the brand's now-viral polka dot Mathilde dress to the 2022 Easter Sunday church service at St George's Chapel in Windsor, and it's easy to see why it became an instant classic.
Crafted from pure silk, the navy Mathilde features a contrasting collar and delicate crystal buttons, echoing the vintage elegance of the Alessandra Rich dress famously worn by Catherine, Princess of Wales.
With wedding season underway, this dress is a standout option for anyone searching for a guest outfit that is both stylish and comfortable enough to wear from day to evening.

It's also been seen on several TV stars, including Lorraine Kelly, Holly Willoughby and Amanda Holden, proving its wide appeal.
Available in sizes 6 to 18, the fit-and-flare silhouette flatters all figures and transitions easily from formal events to more relaxed settings.
While Zara styled hers with a navy clutch and nude court shoes, it also works beautifully with loafers and a crossbody bag for the office, or can be dressed up with heels and a statement clutch on special occasions.
This dress is equally suited to the races, christenings, get-togethers and smart daytime events, making it a versatile wardrobe investment.
If you're after a similar look with a fresh twist, the new Valerie Shirt Dress offers the same timeless charm in a different silhouette - and it's also in the sale.
LK Bennett Valerie Polka Dot Shirt Dress With Belt
Available in sizes 6 to 20 across both regular and petite fits, it's crafted from a lightweight, floaty fabric in classic navy with a cream polka dot print.
The design features a long rounded collar, puffed shoulders, contrast cream buttons, a buckled belt and flattering midi-length skirt.
Style it with ballerina flats for daytime polish or switch to strappy heels on a dressier occasion.
LK Bennett offers a Try Before You Buy service with Harper, allowing you to check the fit of the dress at home with no upfront payment.
With a flexible return policy and 30% off for a limited time, these wardrobe classics are unlikely to stay in stock for long.

The power from thousands of UK car drivers is now in your hands
I received an interesting E-mail from a reader last week, following up on a recent long-term report on the single-motor Volvo EC40 I'm currently driving. It turns out that our reader, a keen petrolhead called Derek Dunthorne, is running the twin-motor version of the Volvo EC40, and although it's in a different specification to mine and something of an upgrade, we share many similar opinions. Advertisement - Article continues below Derek loves the interior, telling me that the 'Android-based interface is brilliant – easy to use and completely logical – although, like most folk, I would prefer knobs for the heating and ventilation'. He also gave me some background information on his buying decision. Moving away from several Porsche Macans, this would be his – wait for it – 56th car. What particularly impressed him was Volvo's interior quality and finish; they're not quite at Porsche standards, in his opinion, but better than the Korean alternatives. He initially considered the smaller and newer EX30, but found he preferred the more conventional driver displays of the EC40, which is something I happen to agree with. It also turns out that we are even getting the same miles per kWh. But the really interesting information from Derek was beyond even what our long-term reports can offer. It transpires that he bought the car at six months old with 1,800 miles on the clock for a discount of 33 per cent on the new price and a three per cent PCP (to hedge against depreciation). He was impressed with Volvo's used car 30-day exchange policy, and as it transpired that was a good choice, because he actually ended up using it. Unhappy with his first car for a number of reasons, he returned it and the company refunded his money and allowed him to choose another, which he now loves. In terms of running costs, his are a fraction of mine. He uses the Octopus Energy Intelligent Go tariff that enables him to charge overnight for 7.0p per kWh. This means he has spent around £120 on electricity in 12 months and about 4,000 miles. Like many, he has never needed to use public charging, with all his journeys having been no longer than the 200 miles that the Volvo can comfortably complete. In the digital era, we often hear about information overload, but Derek's E-mail and the context of his purchase and ongoing experience really brought home the power of information for car buyers. Which is what our annual Driver Power satisfaction survey is all about: real-world experiences from real-world drivers. You can read the 2025 results next week, but in the meantime 'be more Derek'. Fill in the latest survey that will contribute to next year's results, because there is clearly no such thing as too much information when it comes to changing cars. We need all the help we can get, from experts and those living with the cars we're considering. Buy a car with Auto Express.

Rita Ora puts on a VERY cheeky display in hot pants and tiny bikini as she teases her upcoming single
Rita Ora put on a very cheeky display in tiny hot pants as she continued to tease her upcoming single with a saucy Instagram post on Wednesday. The singer, 34, made sure all eyes were on her as she posed up a storm in the tiny shorts that she paired with a hot pink bikini. Rita layered a white strappy body suit over her diamante swimwear and added inches to her physique with a pair of strappy heeled sandals. To accessorise, the songstress wore a pair of large white Pucci sunglasses and colourful hoop earrings. Alongside her snaps, she penned: 'HEAT MUSIC VIDEO OUT FRIDAY. Join the YouTube premiere at 5PM BST. it's gonna get hoootttt' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Heat is expected to feature on her upcoming, still untitled, fourth album, which will be her first album release since her 2023 You & I. Rita has recently been supporting Kylie Minogue for the first leg of her tour after she previously revealed that Kylie's 2023 mega-hit from Tension, Padam Padam, was nearly given to her. The synth-pop banger - penned by Norwegian singer-songwriter Ina Wroldsen and producer Lostboy - was a viral hit for Kylie. But several artists were asked if they wanted to record it, including the Anywhere singer, because they didn't feel it was a Kylie song. Lostboy told The Sun newspaper's Bizarre column: 'We wrote Padam in February 2022 and there were maybe four or five months of us sitting on it, then I sent it to their label, and someone suggested to me, "Kylie would kill this."' He added: 'They were unsure and there was a moment when Rita was going to cut it and it was worming around a few artists on that label. 'They were trying to make it work but they didn't think it was for Kylie.' It comes after she kicked off her support gig on the tour in April at Atlanta's State Farm Arena. Rita gushed after her gig: 'First night of the tour, wow the reception was incredible and I'm so grateful for this opportunity to connect with North America. It feels like such a huge compliment to open up for such an icon.' Kylie's Tension Tour will conclude on August 26. She will then head to New York for two shows at Madison Square Garden before stopping for one show at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C. The star is the highest-selling Australian female artist of all time and the third best-selling in the UK. But she has only now begun to make a name for herself in the US following the success of her viral 2023 hit Padam Padam. In the past Kylie has claimed her failure to catch on stateside didn't phase her and she enjoyed her anonymity there, however, her record label revealed in 2023 that the singer now has her eyes firmly set on cracking the US market.
