How New Look has stepped up its game from ‘basic' to ‘chic' & 10 of the best buys to nab for a WHOLE summer wardrobe

The Sun12-06-2025

NEW LOOK is one of the staple streets on the high street.
Known for its reasonable pricing, you know you can always bag yourself good wardrobe staples without breaking the bank.
But another thing New Look does well is summer.
And this year the brand has really upped the game with one of their chicest collection today.... and you'll be wanting to add so many buys straight to your basket.
From flowy fabrics to comfort being key whilst vibrant prints and colours make the whole range scream summer, this is certainly not one to sleep on.
Here, Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale has you covered, showing you ten of the brand's best pieces to buy now.
The top
This sweetheart neckline top comes in a linen fabric which makes it perfect for summer.
With a tie at the back you can add more shape to the top as you wish.
A great 'jeans and a nice top' combination, it's a really versatile top that you could also dress up with a midi skirt and heels for a summery evening out, or take to the office - meaning more cost per wear.
The dress
For just less than £40 this check midi dress is an absolute steal.
It wouldn't look out of place on sites like Damson Madder and Sister Jane, but yet New Looks version is just a fraction of the price.
The shirring on the front of the bust makes this extra stretchy for those with a fuller cup and the added bow detailing on the hip gives this an extra bit of oomph compared to a normal midi dress.
Not only that but it looks super comfortable too - adds immediately to basket.
The bag
New Look has a wide selection of bags, but this one in particular is a stand out.
The raffia bucket bag style is big enough to fit all your essentials in and will also go with so many pieces in your wardrobe.
Whether you want to take it on holiday or as an everyday summer bag then this is a perfect option.
Plus it's a great price at £27.99, similar bags retail for more than double this.
The shorts
Shorts, £19.99
Gingham shorts are all the rage this summer and this red pair from New Look is just £19.99.
The elasticated waist makes them extra comfy and easy to wear and the white scallop trim detailing makes them feel more premium.
Whether you're wanting a pair to potter around in the garden or for your summer holiday this pair would look great with a graphic t-shirt, cut blouse or a classic white shirt.
The Tee
T-shirt, £14.99
Graphic t-shirts are all over the high street and are an easy throw on piece to add to your wardrobe.
You can inject some colour with this one for just £14.99.
Great to wear with denim shorts, linen trousers or skirts - it's a really easy way of making your look feel and look summery.
The skirt
Mini skirt, £24.99
If you want the look of a sarong style skirt without the faff of actually tying one then this option for New Look could be for you.
With the tie detail already in place at the side it's done all the hard work for you.
Perfect for your holidays with flat sandals, a raffia bag and a t-shirt or wear over your swimwear for a stylish beach look.
The co-ord
Midi skirt, £32.99
This printed a-line midi skirt is super fun for summer.
Bright and colourful with a postcard style print, the elasticated waistband makes it super comfortable, before flaring out into the a-line style which makes it even more flattering.
Whilst it does come with a matching top to make it into a handy co-ord you could also mix it up with a t-shirt, shirt or blouse depending on your preference.
The trainer
Trainers, £32.99
Colourful trainers are still very popular, but instead of spending nearly £100 on a pair, New Look has options for less than half that price.
For just £32.99 this red and pink pair is not only a great colour combination, but will make you bang on trend without spending too much cash.
Plus they'll be great for wearing day in day out.
The sandal
Heels, £35.99
Finding a pair of heels that are comfortable is no mean feet.
However, New Look is renowned for how comfortable its shoes can be.
This brown woven pair has a good sturdy block heel, ankle strap for extra support and also comes in white depending on your preference.
With head to toe padding and a flexible sole you'll be able to stay on your feet for hours.
The trousers
Like a lot of other pieces the brand has really thought about comfort with the tie elasticated waist and loose fitting flow of the trousers, making them breathable and cool.
The flowy style makes them great for this time of year.

Kelsey Parker's ‘haunting' words about pregnancy months before sudden loss of baby son

KELSEY Parker's "haunting" words about life being "precious" were penned just months before the sudden loss of her baby son.

Tom was aged just 33 when he died of glioblastoma, a rare and aggressive cancer, just 18 months after diagnosis. Speaking to OK! Magazine earlier this year, then-pregnant Kelsey said: "I'm due at the end of June. I'm trying to enjoy this pregnancy more, because I think when you've been through something like I've been through, you realise how precious life is. "I know that sounds clichéd, but it's true. "I just want to enjoy every moment of it with Will. When I fell pregnant with Aurelia, I thought I had my life set. "I had the perfect life – I'd been with Tom since the age of 19 and had everything sorted. "Then my world got flipped upside down and I think that teaches you how precious life is." Kelsey wrote a beautiful poem to tell fans about the death of her third child Phoenix Parker-Lindsay. In it, she details how Phoenix was "so loved, so longed for, yet not alive". "No breath you drew, no eyes to see, still you mean everything to me," she added. Watch heartbreaking moment Kelsey Parker sobs over late husband Tom's voice Kelsey then asked for "understanding and space" to process the "earth-shattering news". A phoenix bird symbolises immortality, resurrection and life after death. In a statement posted on Instagram, Kelsey said: "Before I receive an influx of lovely messages and heartfelt well wishes, I want to just say that I truly appreciate everything you are all going to say and share. "But with the news being so raw, I would really like to ensure that we as a family are given space and time to process this devastating and earth-shattering news. "I love you all and thank you for your understanding and space."

This nepo baby enjoying a glam day out at Royal Ascot is the daughter of two huge Hollywood A-listers - but can you guess who it is?

This nepo baby is the daughter of two huge Hollywood A-listers. And while she has been taking the music industry by storm she has proved she is also has an eye for fashion as she stepped out in a chic black and white dress for Royal Ascot on Sunday. The star, 33, who recently released a track called Over And Over looked incredible as she slipped into a satin dress which featured a sheer polka dot train. She accessorised her took with a dramatic black dress hat, sticking to the racing event's strict dress code, and slipped into a pair of towering black heels. Inspired by her award-winning actress mother's grace and elegance, this star styled her brunette locks into a chic updo. But can you guess who it is? That's right it's Scout LaRue Willis - the eldest daughter of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore. She is a successful singer, guitarist and released her last album in 2022. Bruce is also a proud dad to five daughters Rumer, 36 and Tallulah, 30, with his ex-wife Demi, 61, as well as Mabel Ray, 12; and Evelyn, 10, with his wife Emma Heming Willis, 46. Demi, who was married to Bruce from 1987 to 2000, recently shared an emotional update on his health. Bruce is going through a courageous battle with aphasia and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Demi recently confirmed the Die Hard star was 'in a very stable place at the moment' in an interview with CNN. 'I've shared this before, but I really mean this so sincerely. It's so important for anybody who's dealing with this to really meet them where they're at, and from that place, there is such love and joy,' she added. While admitting the journey has been 'very difficult,' Demi also reflected on its unexpected lessons: 'There is great loss, but there is also great beauty and gifts that can come from it.' Willis' family first revealed his FTD diagnosis in February 2023, following his retirement from acting due to aphasia, a brain disorder that affects speech and language comprehension. Since then, the Hollywood icon has been showered with love and unwavering support from his family. Last month, Emma opened up about their journey, emphasizing that she doesn't 'shield' their young daughters from the reality of Bruce's condition. During an interview with Town & Country Magazine, Heming explained, 'This disease is misdiagnosed, it's missed, it's misunderstood. 'So finally getting to a diagnosis was key so that I could learn what frontotemporal dementia is and I could educate our children,' she admitted. Emma added, 'I've never tried to sugarcoat anything for them. They've grown up with Bruce declining over the years. I'm not trying to shield them from it.' 'What I learned from our therapist was that if children ask questions, they're ready to know the answer. If we could see that Bruce was struggling, I would address it with the kids so they could understand, but this disease is chronic, progressive and terminal.' Heming told the outlet that their children don't tend 'to speak about the terminal side of this with them, nor have they asked.' However, she expressed that Mabel and Evelyn 'know that Daddy's not going to get better.'
