Advertisement Read more M&S stories And you won't have to worry about people seeing them either, as they are said to have 'no The For just £18 for two, we think they're a real steal - and there's two colour options to choose from - black and rose quartz. Advertisement Most read in Fabulous Exclusive And it's clear that shoppers are loving them, as they have quickly amassed countless five star reviews, with many hailing them the 'best' anti-chafe shorts on the market. Not only this, but others have praised the shorts for working "wonders" on their "confidence." M&S' must-have summer holiday dresses One person said: 'Perfect fit. Best ones I've bought so far. Quality fabric.' Another added: 'Comfortable, soft, does not show lines, true to size, the best product for tummy control.' Advertisement 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.' A third commented: 'These are the best replacement 'Spanx' ever! I have purchased several thigh slimmers from various stores and none have been suitable. 'These ones are comfortable, don't ride up and aren't too tight on the waist. I've bought another pair. Highly recommend.' Not only this, but someone else beamed: 'Fabulous… they are very comfortable, when worn hides all the lumps and bumps without feeling like you have been squeezed into them. And at a very real price.'

I like to wear floaty, lightweight trousers in the summer and these pants do wonders for my confidence. 'I purchased two sets, so I'm never without an option of wearing them. Even under a lightweight dress or skirt, they are slightly slimming and smoothing. I wear a skin toned shade that is perfect under light as well as dark fabrics.' Unlock even more award-winning articles as The Sun launches brand new membership programme - Sun Club Hottest fashion trends of 2025 Fabulous' Fashion Editor Clemmie Fieldsend shares the biggest trends from the high street. The East/West Bag Baguette bags have had a good run, after returning from the 1990s' shoulders of Sarah Jessica Parker to modern-day fashion icons, like Hailey Bieber. In 2025, the East/West bag is a similar but elongated shape and has long, thin straps that are easy to throw over your shoulder. They've been on runway models' arms at nearly ever designer show - think Burberry, Givenchy and Bottega Veneta - and are hitting the high street now, too. Powder pink Bright fuchsia pink had its day after the release of Barbie in 2023 and now the more polished and expensive-looking pale shade is taking over for 2025. Pantone may say that it's the year of Mocha Mousse, but the catwalks say otherwise! From Prada to Erdem, the subtle look was all over the spring/summer catwalks, worn head-to-toe or on its own. If the sugary shade is too girly for you, then look to sharp suiting for a androgynous take on the colour. The shell jacket The '80s classic is back, but with a sleek and minimal new twist for 2025. We all know we're likely to see rain for most of spring, so your practical coat of choice should be a cagoule jacket. Depop revealed one of its big trend predictions for this year is retro sportswear, with surges already seen in '80s windbreakers'. Seen everywhere from the stylish streets of Copenhagen to the Miu Miu catwalk, now mums who have an emergency raincoat crumpled underneath their pushchair are very much in fashion! The turn-up jeans While the shape of jeans remains the same for this year and barrel-legs will still be everywhere, the way we're styling them is different. This season, transform your wide-leg, baggy denims into turn-ups. For this look, size doesn't matter, so while deep turn-ups are a hit from jean trend-leaders Citizens of Humanity, a slight fold is still just as good - but only as it's just one single fold. Peep-toe shoe Get your pedicures booked in sharpish, as this season your toes are the main event. After a long hiatus, the peep-toe has been welcomed back into the fashion fold, with brands like Hermes, Miu Miu and Tory Burch showing plain and embellished footwear in this style. From mules to pumps and clogs (yes, clogs will be around too!), there are lots of different styles that are set to sweep the high street. Sheer blouses See-through looks have always lived on the catwalk, but have rarely filtered into everyday life - until now. Designers Ralph Lauren and Tom Ford loved sheer looks on their S/S '25 catwalks and M&S even had sellout success with its black sheer pencil skirt last season. Expect to see more sheer looks lining supermarket aisles and high street shops in the form of skirts, tops and frocks.

Meghan Markle reveals plans to ‘step back' and ‘assess' As Ever brand before relaunching more products
Meghan Markle isn't planning on restocking her highly sought-after jams anytime soon. In a new interview shared in line with the final episode of her podcast, Confessions of a Female Founder, on Tuesday, the Duchess revealed she was planning to 'assess' new avenues for her brand. Products such as jam, honey and herbal teas from the first As Ever launch in April sold out in less than an hour. However, Meghan now says she plans on taking a 'step back, gather data from the launch, and figure out exactly what As Ever could be.' New products for As Ever are planned to be announced during the first quarter of 2026. 'I want to really focus on the hospitality angle of As Ever, but as we take the learnings, we can understand what the customer's needs are seasonally,' Meghan told Fast Company. 'My heart is very deeply in my home. Everything comes from being rooted in the love story of your home and garden, and then you can imagine different verticals coming out of that.' Asked whether she might explore moving into clothing one day, Meghan responded: 'Fashion is a category I plan to explore down the line because I find it to be an intriguing space for me.' Tuesday's episode of Meghan's podcast featured her speaking to the founder of Spanx, Sara Blakely. Throughout the episode, the two discussed Blakely pivoting away from Spanx to create her own sneaker high heel hybrid, called Sneex. As Blakely reflected on how painful it was for her to wear high heels, Meghan chimed in with her own experience of wearing stilettos while pregnant. 'I gained 65 pounds with both pregnancies,' Meghan said. 'And you're in these five-inch pointy-toed stilettos.' 'You have the most enormous bump and your tiny little ankles are bracing themselves in these high heels, but all my weight was in the front,' she recalled. 'So you're just going, how on Earth am I not just tipping, you know, face planting? I was clinging very closely to my husband, like, 'Please don't let me fall.'' Earlier this month, Meghan revealed she consulted an Ayurvedic doctor during both her pregnancies. Acknowledging that some might find the approach unconventional, Meghan noted: 'I think a lot of people when they hear mushrooms, they go 'OK, she's talking about being hippie-dippy, grounded in all these things.'' 'If you aren't familiar with adaptogens, you can go to this place of 'Oh, it's feeling a little psychedelic and super woo-woo',' she said. Meghan said involving an Ayurvedic practitioner was about seeing 'food as medicine.' 'So there are these items and ingredients that have been part of our natural ecosystem and dietary system for a long time, whether acknowledged or not, that somehow you say mushrooms, and now people have a connotation attached to it,' she said. 'But it's really just a food trend that I believe you were far ahead of in terms of saying, 'Hold on, these have properties that can in some way make you feel differently in a really safe way.''
