Next's 'very flattering' £24 denim shorts are a 'summer staple'
Next shoppers have praised the denim shorts online, calling them "perfect for summer" Next shoppers are heaping praise on a "perfect" pair of denim shorts they've been buying online. The retailer is well known for its clothing and accessories - and there may be a new must-have in stock. The Mid Blue Denim Boy Shorts are priced at £24 and are available in four colours; mid blue, black, ecru and bleach denim. They feature a boy shorts design, a longer inseam and a turn-up hem. Next has noted that the shorts have a "looser fit than usual" and are machine washable. They come in sixes six to 22, in regular or petite. Alternatively, shoppers could snap up the Denim Mom High Waisted Shorts for £25 from M&S, while New Look stocks the Light Blue A-Line Denim Shorts on sale for £20.99, down from £27.99. ASOS also has the denim A line short in lightwash blue for £21, down from £26. The full Next description reads: "Your classic, everyday denim shorts. They are mid-rise, designed to sit on your belly button and made from comfort stretch denim, which means they maintain an authentic denim look whilst having a small amount of stretch to allow for a more comfortable ready-to-wear short. They are finished with a turn-up hem, which can be rolled up or down." The shorts have racked up rave reviews online, with one shopper writing: "Good quality material, perfect fit. True to size." A second said: "Lovely denim shorts, perfect fit. I buy these every year." A third shopper added: "Fit was great, look lovely on" and another said: "Lovely length if you're still wanting to show a bit of leg but not too much. I wore these all the time on holiday. Really great summer staple for your wardrobe!" However, some shoppers did have issues with the shorts once they arrived. One said: "I returned the item, didn't like the colour when they arrived." A second added: "Not my preference compared to the same ones I've bought over the years, they are much shorter and feel really cheep." Despite this, many shoppers continued to praise the shorts. One person said: "The shorts are a really good fit. The sizing is a little generous so you may need to size down if you have a slim build. They are high waisted and very comfortable to wear." A second wrote: "These shorts are really comfortable. They fit perfectly and look really good. The material is of good quality." A third added: "Love these shorts, they are really comfortable, the denim is nice and soft, and they look great!" A fourth shopper wrote: "I bought these for a recent holiday and they were perfect. A good fit and great style." A fifth said: "This are perfect for summer, not too short and a lovely fit." Another added: "I ordered these for a friend who's had them before. She loves them. They are comfy and very flattering. She said the sizing was spot on."

Rochelle Humes' new Next edit for summer wows fans with its 'gorgeous pieces'
The This Morning's host is back with a new summer edit for Next shoppers. As we rapidly approach summer, many of our favourite retailers are dropping new clothing collections. One of them is Next, with a brand new range from TV presenter Rochelle Humes. The high street firm's collaboration with the popular This Morning host always goes down a treat with shoppers, and the latest is no different. From everyday basics to fancy items, it has everything for city breaks and balmy vacations. While the entire collection seems to have gone down well with shoppers on social media recently, one item that will be a staple this summer is the Mid Blue Denim Sleeveless Denim Maxi Dress, also available in a natural ecru, for just £48. Crafted from a lightweight cotton-blend material, this dress is ideal for summer as it is sleeveless and has a relatively relaxed silhouette, delivering ample ventilation on humid days, reports the Mirror. Offering a round neckline, that can be layered with cute necklaces, it falls to a trendy maxi-length with a raw hemline that adds a touch of texture and uniqueness to its style. Mid Blue Denim Sleeveless Denim Maxi Dress £48 Next Buy here Product Description Great for stashing into a suitcase for any upcoming holidays, it features an airy sleeveless design, while the denim material ensures it most likely won't be creased or crumpled. Designed in regular and tall sizes, Rochelle Humes' denim dress caters to many body shapes, as sizes six to 22 are still available. However, a few are beginning to show "low stock", so we'd advise bagging one fast. While there are currently no reviews for the denim dress online, it is worth noting that, since it is not available in petite sizes, this could potentially be a drawback for some customers. So, perhaps a more suitable alternative for some shoppers would be this Petite Black Denim Drawstring Waist Dress from New Look that costs £29.99 and offers a mini-length hemline. Alternatively, over at Roman, this Denim Panel Detail Midi Dress does offer an almost similar style to the TV presenter's Next frock, but for just a tad cheaper at £42.

Meanwhile, devoted fans of the Rochelle Humes edit for Next were sent swooning over the entire new summer collection after the high street giant shared it to its official Instagram page recently. Sharing a few different items from the range that includes the playful White/Pink Graphic Print Beach T-Shirt, the retailer wrote: "A summer instalment not to be missed... the Rochelle series is back." Fashion deal of the week Fashion fans looking for a dress that will standout at all their summer events will need to hear about this one from Roman. The high street chain's Royal Blue Rose Print Button Detail Maxi Dress, hailed as "perfect for the warmer seasons", is now on sale for £35 after being dropped from £48 - saving 27 percent overall. With its "stunning" all-over rose print and modest midaxi length hemline, this particular frock will look perfect at any fancy occasions this season. Since it offers a bold design, we'd advise pairing it with nude-coloured heels and neutral accessories. The flowy, comfortable woven fabric and short sleeves make it an ideal airy choice for when the temperatures rise again. It also features a chic V-neckline, alongside a shirred waistline that will 'cinch' in the figure for a flattering effect. Complete with buttons down the front, the high street firm also advises pairing its £35 sale dress with a denim jacket on those summer days when the weather is a little bit chillier. Beloved for its vibrant and bold style, one five-star review read: "One of the five-star reviews read: "This dress is amazing. I've had so many compliments. "Lovely Silky material, floor length and such vibrant colours and so easy to just wash and wear. Suitable for weddings and occasions or just perfect for holidays and summer days. A real head turner... Love it." Someone else added: "Another pleased purchaser wrote: "Just love this dress, lovely colours, beautiful material, perfect for my upcoming holiday." Fans couldn't stop gushing over the new garments, as one praised: "Ohhhh love it." Another loyal shopper added: "My fave edits." While someone else positively remarked: "This brand is in safe, brilliant hands." Rochelle Humes' new summer edit and the are available at Next now.

Rochelle Humes' new denim dress from Next has shoppers swooning
Rochelle Humes' latest collection with Next has dropped, with some seriously swoonworthy pieces for summer including a maxi denim dress With a new season comes new fashion collections from some of our favourite brands. These include Poppy Delevingne's collaboration with Nobody's Child and Next's newest range with This Morning star Rochelle Humes. One dress in particular from Rochelle's new collection is making waves with fashion fans for its lightweight denim make-up and elegant style. The Mid Blue Denim Sleeveless Denim Maxi Dress, which comes in a blue mid-wash denim hue as well as a more neutral ecru colour, retails at £48. Made from a lightweight cotton-blend fabric (77% Cotton, 23% TENCEL™ lyocell), the dress is ideal for summer as it is sleeveless and has a relatively relaxed silhouette, delivering ample ventilation on humid days. Crafted with a round neckline (ideal for adding necklaces and layering), the frock has a maxi length whose raw hem adds some lovely texture and a bit of a unique look. Its sleeveless design makes it a great item to stash in the suitcase on holiday - plus, with a denim make up it's highly unlikely to crease. The dress is also available in two different lengths and in sizes 6 to 22, catering to a variety of shapes and sizes, regular and tall. This does mean that those with more petite frames may feel a little bit swamped, which is one negative of this dress. While it doesn't yet have any reviews on the Next website, the dress was posted on the brand's Instagram page, alongside a number of other pieces from the collection - including this playful White/Pink Graphic Print Beach T-Shirt, £25 - underneath which fans of the The Saturdays star shared their love for the new garments. Shop the look £48 Next Buy Now on Next Product Description One person wrote: "Ohhhh love it," while someone else stated: "My fave edits." Another shopper raved: "This brand is in safe, brilliant hands." One lovely detail that makes this dress stand out is its diagonal seam design, which adds some texture and dimension to the dress. However, for those who'd prefer a more fit-and-flare shape, Marks and Spencer's Pure Cotton Square Neck Midi Skater Dress is £45 and has a pleated skirt and square neckline that's super flattering. It's also a good option for those who'd prefer to keep their arms covered. For a more shirt-dress style with no sleeves, like Next's Roman, Next's Denim Button Through Midi Dress is £40 and comes in sizes 10 to 20. With a waist tie and v-neckline, it's a really flattering option for summer. Shoppers have described it as having 'excellent style and fits really well', others have said it's 'suitable for any age.' However, Rochelle's mid-Blue Sleeveless Denim Maxi Dress is available from Next for £48.

But not everyone was happy with their purchase. One reviewer said: "These are lovely on and I love the print. I have given them 4 stars though because the sizing is so confusing. I had to reorder as the first pair were enormous, based off my waist measurement. "When I went back and looked at the sizing chart in detail, the waist measurement as measured is not how they are sized. Very strange. Once you get the right size though they are great quality."

Next's denim-look trousers are the cooling jeans alternative to wear on repeat
If you've been struggling with dressing for the heatwave, we've found a pair of denim-look trousers from Next that are the perfect cooling alternative to jeans If, like me, you're a big denim jeans fan but hate the thought of wearing something so hot and rigid in the heatwave, you'll be pleased to hear about Next's latest trouser drop. Enter the Mid Blue Linen Blend Wide Leg Denim Trousers, a denim/trouser hybrid that looks as put-together as wearing a pair of jeans, but feels just as breezy and comfortable as a floaty pair of trousers. This style of trousers has been cropping up a fair amount of the past few months, and we're not mad about it. You may have seen Rag and Bone's viral 'sweatpant jeans' on your socials, but at £195, that's a pretty steep price to pay for essentially a pair of tracksuit bottoms. And Next's pair are priced at a slightly more wallet-friendly £48. River Island also dropped a similar style with their Wide Leg Pyjama Style Jeans, £42, a slouchy, relaxed pair of "jeans" that feel as comfortable as pyjamas. These ones are available in classic blue, black and cream. The linen/cotton blend makes this pair far cooler than traditional denim, which is especially a lifesaver in the heatwave. The wide-leg cut gives them a flattering fit, while the pleated waistband adds structure that makes them feel more put together. They fasten with a normal button and zip, but also feature handy subtle side adjusters so you can adjust the fit just right. And if the mid-blue colour isn't your style, there's a slightly deeper blue version to shop instead. Whether you're commuting in for a relaxed office day, heading out for a weekend brunch with your friends or off for a spontaneous post-work drink, these lightweight and stylish trousers are perfect for virtually everything. Alternatively, if you're after a more affordable pair, New Look has some Blue Drawstring Waist Denim Trousers for £26.99 that feel as comfy as trousers but have a similar denim effect.
