Summer is all about spending time outdoors, and hopefully fitting in a few al fresco meals and barbecues. But being on the go a lot, especially for shoppers who have camping, caravanning trips or British holiday stays on the cards, means it's wise to pack a portable BBQ, rather than hope there's one at the campsite.
Debenhams are selling a Living and Home Portable Charcoal Grill Charcoal BBQ, designed for use on patios. It's £34.40, down from £63.33 - that's a saving of 46%. Available in black, it can also be placed on a table, making it easier on the back when flipping burgers or turning sausages.
With two grilling areas, meat can sizzle on the lower rack while corn on the cobs and veg skewers cook more slowly above. For a portable barbecue that can be wheeled round the garden, try the CosmoGrill Outdoor Jr. Smoker Barbecue Charcoal Portable BBQ Grill Garden from B&Q. It's pricier, costing £99.99 and is only available online, but features a smoker for adding more flavour to meat and fish.
For another camping-friendly BBQ, there's the Weber Smokey Joe Premium Portable Charcoal BBQ - Grey from Argos. Also £99.99, the bit of kit is rust free, so there's no worries about leaving it outside. The bowl of the barbecue is made out of porcelain enamel, designed to help ensure an even cook - so raw chicken and overcooked steak should hopefully be more avoidable.
One shopper said of the Living and Home on Tripadvisor: 'Very efficient service, arrived extremely well packed, and good value.' A second said: 'It arrived very quickly, great service, kept in touch from start of order to delivery.'

A third added: 'I was a bit wary at first because I hadn't heard of the company, so I did my research and went ahead and purchased. I was not disappointed, very good delivery but more importantly, an excellent product.'
However one shopper said: 'Fab-sized bbq, bought for camping trips. The only issue we had was during the assembly, one of the holes was missing for the grill to go in, we had to drill a hole in the correct place before we could use it.

"Not a major issue, but glad we assembled before leaving for the camping trip.' Another said: 'Very good product but not easy to assemble. Used it for the first time yesterday and was very pleased with its performance, cleaning it requires everything to be washed in warm/hot water.'
For those looking to do away with environmentally damaging, disposable barbecues, the Living and Home Portable Charcoal Grill Charcoal BBQ is a great alternative.

Simple £6 tip to freshen up the most basic outfits time and time again
Being a fashion writer, there's always a pressure to "stay fashionable" and "on trend" but finding an affordable way to do that isn't always straightforward. For those weary of the standard jeans-and-tee ensemble or feel their daily attire could use a bit of sprucing up, I have a simple suggestion - invest in a pair of standout socks. Indeed, you heard it right. Incorporating a splash of colour, a whimsical pattern, or a luxurious knit beneath your trousers can transform an outfit from appearing hastily put together to meticulously styled. British sock brand Peper Harow has a unique style of footwear designs that exude understated luxury. Even better, shoppers can snag a 50% discount on a wide range of socks, with prices starting at £6. Its range extends far beyond your typical stripes (albeit striped socks are timeless). Shoppers will discover trainer socks, perfect for summer styling with chunky sandals or low-top trainers, as well as bold florals and colour-blocked styles. And while they appear adorable, these socks are designed to endure. Each pair is crafted in England using premium materials, including Supima cotton, organic cotton, Egyptian cotton, and recycled yarns, reported the Manchester Evening News. Purchasing a new pair of socks to enhance an outfit may seem a tad ridiculous, but it's all about the minute details. It can be the difference between 'thrown on in a rush' and 'thoughtfully styled'. For those uncertain about styling statement socks, one of the simplest methods to display bold hosiery involves combining them with loafers and cropped trousers, allowing a hint of pattern or colour to emerge beneath the hemline. Customers might also embrace the contemporary trend by pairing socks with sandals (think socks with Birkenstock clogs). A floral or pastel design softens the aesthetic whilst adding a whimsical, summery element to an otherwise utilitarian combination. For a more relaxed styling approach, consider turning up jeans sufficiently to reveal a striking pair alongside your preferred trainers. This subtle adjustment introduces texture, colour and character to any ensemble. Naturally, numerous alternative sock brands merit consideration. The London Sock Company provides individual pairs across various styles, including a subscription service where fresh hosiery arrives monthly at your doorstep. Alternatively, The Sock Shop extends 10% discount on initial purchases. The retailer stocks an extensive selection of designs, encompassing specialist sporting varieties and those featuring beloved cartoon and cinema characters. For those unacquainted with Peper Harrow, the label boasts an outstanding 4.7-star Trustpilot rating. One delighted purchaser shared an enthusiastic five-star assessment: "Lovely socks, great colours and designs. And delivery was swift. Would recommend Peper Harow." One satisfied customer gushed: "I just bought some more of their trainer socks. Excellent quality, free shipping, fast dispatch - what's not to like? I won't be buying trainer socks from anywhere else now." However, not all the feedback is glowing. One unhappy shopper commented: "The wrong colour socks were sent. I couldn't be bothered returning them, but I won't buy from Peper Harow again." Yet another individual chimed in: "Peper Harow has a huge range of luxury hand-finished socks. They are of beautiful quality, lovely designs, and worth every penny. Customer service is spot on, highly efficient, and reliable." And another person added: "I purchased four pairs of socks last week and contacted Matt in Customer Service to ask if they could be individually wrapped, as they were gifts for different people, and with their nice PH sticker on the elegant black crepe wrapping paper. This was all done perfectly."

My most complimented gold earrings don't tarnish and look like an Astrid & Miyu pair
Fed up with hoop earrings tugging on ears, leaving skin green or tarnishing? We have the perfect £59 pair that 'look like new' even after sweaty gym classes If there's one piece of jewellery I put on almost every single day, it's a pair of gold hoops. They're a staple that instantly pulls an outfit together, even on days when I'm wearing little more than a plain t-shirt and some jeans. And while I've tried my fair share, the pair I keep getting asked about are Abbott Lyon's Moon and Back Hoop Earrings. I've only had them for a few weeks, and they've already become the most complimented item I own. Friends and even a girl in Pret last week have asked if they're a designer pair, and I get why. They look so much more expensive than they are, with a weight and shine that could easily pass for something designer. In fact, they look a lot like Astrid & Miyu's Cosmic Dome Hoops, which come in at £70. The Abbott Lyon pair are £59, meaning you've saved yourself over a tenner. Plus, if you use the code TAKE10, you can get an extra 10% off them this week. I wasn't expecting much when I first ordered them. I've bought enough mid-range jewellery in my life to know how it usually goes: shiny for a week, then dull and slightly green after a few wears. But these are holding up perfectly. They've already been through it all – showers, gym sessions, long days at my desk when I've absent-mindedly fiddled with them – and they still look brand new. No tarnishing, no fading and definitely no sore, green ears. The plating guarantees to be waterproof, sweat and heat-resistant, making them ideal for girls like me who keep them in for everything from sweaty tube rides to hot yoga classes. Plus, they come with a 2-year warranty. All that aside, what I like most is the design. Thanks to a dainty celestial print, they're minimal but not boring. However, they're still light and comfortable for all-day wear. If you prefer a bit of subtle gold over anything too fussy, these tick every box. Plus, if gold isn't for you, you can also pick up the Moon and Back earrings in silver. Looking to expand your jewellery collection? I also love Estella Bartlett. The brand's new collection has been specifically designed for everyday use, and all the pieces have been created with a PVD (physical vapour deposition) coating. This clever coating is 10x stronger than traditional plating, ensuring the pieces resist tarnishing and discolouration. This means you can keep your jewellery on for that sweaty gym class, when you're poolside on holiday or if you get caught in an unpredictable British downpour. The Teardrop Earrings are my favourite. They remind me of a slightly smaller version of Bottega's hugely popular and celebrity-loved earrings, but for a fraction of the price.
