What's in Store? Marks and Spencer

This is the first in a new series of "What's in Store?"  where I will be taking a regular tour (mostly virtual) of the high street shelves and rails and reporting back to you on my findings with my top 10 picks.

First up is Marks and Spencer.  They're always worth a peek, as among the more humdrum offerings there are often a few beauties which warrant a place in your wardrobe.

Here goes (in no particular order):

Number 10:

Pure Cotton Midi Dress £65

I love the pink shade of this dress and the ruching detail. If I didn't already have the blush pink Warehouse dress from last Summer I would definitely be purchasing this one.


Number 9:

                                                                            

Frill Hem Wrap Skirt £32.50

Loving this skirt - the ruffles are gorgeous.  Again I have a similar navy one from last year which I adore and would definitely recommend this style. It's easy to wear and can be dressed up with heels and a going out out top or down with a tee and sandals/trainers. Go on - try it!

Number 8:

Spotted Long Sleeve Shirt £19.50

Polka dots are a classic, so this one is well worth a try.  It will work well with both workwear and jeans.

Number 7:

Gathered square neck blouse £39.50

Love the style of this - I may have to purchase to check it out IRL.  Some reviews are critical of the fabric but it's a fab take on a classic black top.  Too good not to try for myself.

Number 6:

Pure Cotton Striped Shirt £27.50

A striped shirt with a quirky sleeve to give an edge to a classic style.  Love the pop-over feature as well. Great with jeans/shorts or a more formal outfit.

Number 5:

Pure Cotton Printed Tee £8.50

Probably a bit marmite but this little tee caught my eye and at £8.50 it looks well worth a try to me - pair with white or blue jeans to give your outfit some patterned oomph.

Number 4: 

Pure Cashmere Striped Sweater £99

Love Cashmere.  Love Bretons.  This has been added to my wishlist for the next 20% off code.

Number 3:

Faux Leather Circle Handbag £39.50

A great sized bag with designer features at an affordable price.  Again great for formal or informal occasions and plenty of room inside for all your belongings/kids' c**p.

Number 2:

Relaxed slim leg mid rise jean £25

Fabulous price point for a pair of jeans in a great shade of blue.  Jeans are difficult to buy but these are a must-try at £25.

Number 1:

Pearl Effect Multipack Bracelet £7.50

And finally just a little bracelet stack to accessorise your outfits for Spring. Wear with silver/gold bracelets from your collection to mix up textures and colours.
To be honest I have struggled a little this evening to pull this post together as there weren't that many gorgeous things to choose from at Marks and Spencers.  Fingers crossed they find their mojo in time for the warmer weather!

Back soon,
