I found the best M&S trousers for summer – they're breezy, with a super comfy elasticated waist & come in 10 colours
THE current weather in the UK is making it hard to get dressed for the day while being comfortable. Fortunately, M&S has the perfect buy for the summer months that will keep you cool. BUY NOW And the summer buy seems to be a massive hit with fashion fans who are constantly raving about how stylish they are. The M&S Linen Blend Wide Leg Trousers are a summer staple for any wardrobe. These stunning trousers can be dressed up with a pair of heels or worn casually with a T-shirt and trainers. The linen material ensures you stay cool during the summer heat, while the wide leg shape helps get some breeze into the legs. What's more, the linen trousers have an elasticated waist, making them super comfy even if you've eaten too much at the barbecue. These must-have trousers come in a variety of sizes and lengths to suit any body shape. They have petite, regular and long sizes and start at size 6, going up to a 24. There are also ten colours up for grabs, including bold red and blue or a more demure black and beige. And as if that wasn't enough, these versatile trousers also come with pockets. M&S bosses say: "These linen-rich trousers are designed in a breezy wide-leg shape, making them perfect for warm-weather days. "They fasten with a drawstring at the comfortable high rise waist. "Handy side pockets and patch pockets at the back complete this practical pair." Customers who have already bought the trousers have given them rave reviews. One person wrote: "These are fine as everyday linen trousers, I've got a few colours. The pull-through cord at the waist ensures a close fit." Why Everyone Is Loving M&S Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale revealed to Fabulous why M&S is the shop of the moment. She explained: 'M&S has really pulled it out of the bag this season, there is so much good product to be excited about. 'A brand once known for its 'frumpy fashion' that notion is long gone with it now being one of the leading high street stores for womenswear. 'Its handbag range in particular is super strong with them selling 170% vs plan, with lots more designer dupes for just a fraction of the price. 'The brand is now also the #1 for style perceptions, compared to the #3 spot it had last year, this comes from a really strong design team focused on modernising the brand, not only taking into consideration how the pieces look, but how easy they are to wear also. 'Price is also a big factor with you being able to get many good quality pieces all for under £30. 'After having a sneak peak of the upcoming collection there are so many more amazing pieces that are dropping over the next few months to keep your eyes on. 'Think leopard print dresses, colourful co-ords, embroidered boho jackets, plus lots of swimwear and amazing accessories, as well as great wardrobe staples that will last year on year.' Another commented: 'Lovely comfy trousers will be ordering in another colour." "Excellent trousers bang on size, quality and material - bought blue and love the brightness," penned a third. Meanwhile a fourth said: "I bought bright red as I wanted something different for a summer special 'do' They are perfect!" "Amazing linen trousers - they wash well and fit is great. I buy them every year,' claimed a fifth.

Shoppers are ‘screaming' at ‘awful' Primark bag – many cringe that ‘the 90s are calling' and slam the ‘outrageous' price
FASHION fans have been left 'screaming' at a new bag from Primark. Not only have many shoppers slammed the accessory as 'awful', but others are cringing that the ' 90s are calling'. 3 But that's not all, as the "outrageous" price tag has also left many Primark fans stunned. It comes after one high-street shopper spotted the bag when browsing the aisles in their local Primark. Unsure on the Jelly Tote Bag, which is priced at £10, Aparne Jane took to social media to show it to others, leaving many gobsmacked. Posting on BARGAIN LOVERS Poundland, Home Bargains, B&M, Primark, The Range & More, a public Facebook group with 834,500 members, Aparne uploaded a snap of the see-through bag and wrote: 'In Primark for £10....' The jelly tote bag is open top with twin handles and according to those at Primark, has a 'wipe-clean finish'. Not only this, but Primark bosses have also claimed that this £10 summer bag is 'super cute' and 'lightweight, yet roomy enough to carry your essentials with ease'. While Aparne wasn't totally convinced by the jelly tote bag, which was a very popular style back in the 1990s, Primark bosses stressed that this bag will 'add a playful twist to your everyday look'. While the sturdy twin handles are designed for easy carrying, the open top of this Primark buy makes grabbing your things 'quick and fuss-free'. We think it'll be great for beach days, but according to those at Primark, it's also perfect for heading 'out and about', as it 'brings a hint of fun to your outfit.' But Facebook users were left open-mouthed by the bag, which many described as 'tragic' and 'nasty'. Not only this, but others hailed it a ' pickpockets ' dream'. One person said: 'Awful bag and hardly a bargain!' Another added: 'Not worth a tenner. A pretty material Poundland bag is only 50p to £1. Everyone would see all you have in that.' A third sighed: 'The 90s are calling.' Why Primark is great for looking expensive on a budget By Clemmie Feildsend, Fabulous Fashion Editor AS someone who's no stranger to grabbing a last-minute outfit from Primark for a night out, it's about time that celebrities started catching on too. For as long as I've been heading out, Primark has been my go-to for those 'I have nothing to wear' moments, rushing in at the last minute to find something perfect. And I'm definitely not alone - on any Friday or Saturday night, you'll find plenty of shoppers doing the same thing, right before closing time. But no matter what, Primark always delivers. Now, Rita Ora is leading the charge, showing that you can snag a designer-worthy look without spending a fortune at high-end stores. While Rita's not rushing in last minute for a red carpet outfit, she's proving you can achieve the same high-impact style for much less. Looking stunning in her tailored suit alongside her mum Vera, Rita fit right in among the other A-listers dripping in Prada, Dior, and Victoria Beckham - if anything, she looked even better than some of the guests at The Fashion Awards. With Myleene Klass and Roxy Horner already jumping on the Primark bandwagon, I'm sure more stars will be following suit soon enough. Whilst someone else gasped: 'Wow. Charging a tenner for a plastic bag. Outrageous!' However, at the same time, other fashion fans were impressed and pointed out potential uses of the bag. One woman beamed: 'Handy for festivals and gigs where they sometimes require clear bags.' A second chimed in: 'Think it's meant more for a beach bag.' Whilst someone else confessed: 'I've got one as a knitting bag.'
