Susanna Reid wows in teal midi dress shoppers can get for under £30
Designed with a flattering tie waist, flutter sleeves and midi length, the dress is perfect for everything from weddings to the office Susanna Reid is best known for her sophisticated and feminine style - and one of her recent Good Morning Britain outfits is no exception. The 54-year-old wowed viewers this week when she stepped out in a stunning teal midi dress, and now shoppers can pick it up for under £30 in the sale. The mum-of-three wore a lovely Teal Tie Waist Midi Dress from Principles, which is available at Debenhams. Originally £55, it's currently down to £33 in the sale. However, fans can use the code EXTRA15 at the checkout, which takes the total down to £28.05. The elegant dress is made from a 'comfortable' woven fabric which boasts slight stretch, ideal for all day wear. The tie waist detail is 'flattering', creating a defined silhouette, while the flutter sleeves both add interest while disguising the upper arm area. The pleated crew neckline adds texture to the frock, and fashion lovers will no doubt delight in the fact it has practical side pockets, which make it an ideal choice for weddings as they're great for stashing tissues, confetti or lipstick. The versatile midi length also makes it work-appropriate for the office, as well as any weekend events, too. Coming in sizes 10-20, it's not the most size inclusive piece, but FatFace has this Remi Dark Teal Linen Midi Dress for £72 in sizes 6-24 in two lengths. Meanwhile, Next has the Friends Like These Green Ruched Front ITY Midi Dress for £39, with teal seeming to be a popular shade this season. It's not the only one of Susanna's recent outfits that is on sale at the moment, either. Last month, the host scooped the Outstanding Achievement Award from MHP 30 To Watch. For the event Susanna wore LK Bennett's Altyn Shaped Seam Fitted Crepe Dress, which was just the right balance of formal and easy to wear. Susanna's LK Bennett dress is usually priced at £299, but it's currently on sale with £60 off, slashing the price to £239. Although she opted for the bold red shade, the Altyn Fitted Crepe Dress also comes in black, making it the perfect LBD. Elsewhere in daytime TV fashion, Cat Deeley returned to This Morning on Monday wearing Next's Black Hardware Detail Halter Top, priced at £39, paired with ME + EM's Ultra High Waist Wide-Leg Trouser, priced at £250. Standing in for her the previous week was Rochelle Humes who opted for a crisp white wrap shirt from ASOS (£32) and River Island's Blue Seam Detail Balloon Leg Jeans, which cost £49. But if it's Susanna's affordable and versatile teal dress you fancy getting your hands on, shoppers can snap it up here.
