Skims straight-leg trousers that 'feel like butter' reduced to £36 in flash sale
It's a very good day when SKIMS has a sale, and it's even better when you find a best-selling product still in stock in plenty of sizes for a fraction of its usual RRP.
This morning, we've spotted SKIMS' top-rated Cotton Jersey Straight Leg Pants on sale via the brand's UK website for £36 instead of £72– that's a big 50% saving. The biggest discount is in the Barely Pink and Dusk colourways, with the gorgeous ballerina-like Barely Pink still in stock in all sizes. If you want to shop the classic black (Soot) shade, that's also still in stock, but the cost for that shade is £50– still a big saving of £22.
So why do we love them? The SKIMS Cotton Jersey Straight Leg Pant is made from the brand's signature cotton jersey fabric– a breathable, lightweight cotton blend with plenty of stretch and softness. This special material offers a soft yet still structured feel, making sure you feel comfy without compromising on shape. The straight-leg silhouette gives a clean, relaxed fit that sits naturally on the hips, with a gentle drape through the leg. An elasticated waistband with an added drawcord adds to the adjustability, while subtle tonal stitching keeps the design minimal and versatile.
Available in a range of colours, including Barely Pink, Dusk, Light Heather Grey and Soot, these trousers can easily be styled up or down to suit any occasion– be it running errands or paired with a blazer for a business-meets-casual work look. The sizing is also, in SKIMS fashion, inclusive, ranging from XXS to 4X, catering to a diverse array of body types.
But don't just take our word for it, shoppers also say they can't get enough of the trousers. One buyer writes: "These are even more comfortable than I expected and the fit is perfect. Now I need them in every colour."
"These pants are ridiculously soft and breathable. If you're looking for some loungewear, that doesn't suffocate you or make you feel hot. These are perfect," adds another, while a third chimes in with: "Very nice material hugs my curves best lounge pants I've ever owned, hands down. I need these in all colours.:
Others call them "butter-soft" and their "favourite ever pair of trousers", however, another reviewer had a slightly different take, writing: "Super soft and comfortable but very very long definitely size down."
Elsewhere, our shopping writer Grace believes she's found the 'perfect' summer blouse she'll be wearing on repeat. She says: "Our fashion team recently got a first look at Finery's latest summer drop, and it's full of everything we want to wear this season. Think easy linen, laid-back denim, soft neutrals, and elevated everyday staples, all with a focus on wearability and timeless style.
"One item caught my eye in particular, thanks to its high-quality, chic look and breathable summer fabric. If you've been looking for a blouse that feels polished but still lets you breathe, enter the Adalia White Cotton Blouse; a crisp white top that's the perfect combination of stylish and practical."

'I put Poundland's £1 milky toner promising 'glass skin' to the test against a £15 K-beauty buy'
Glass skin is a huge skincare trend, so Mirror's shopping writer Grace tested Poundland's £1 milky toner against Beauty of Joseon's £15 K-Beauty rice milk and saw impressive results Milky textures in skincare have become a trend this year, with hydrating serums, toners, and micellar waters popping up everywhere. Having already tried out a few formulas, including BYOMA's Hydrating Milky Toner, £11.99, Curel's Moisture Facial Milk, £20, and Beauty of Joseon's Glow Replenishing Rice Milk, £15.50, I love the glow they give and how much they moisturise the skin, especially when prepping it for make-up. Even Hailey Bieber swears by a drop of her rhode Glazing Milk mixed into foundation for the ultimate dewy look. However, retailing usually between £10 - £30, they can be a pretty pricey addition to your skincare routine, especially if you are opting for higher-end ones like rhode, Tatcha or Curel. Luckily for us, Poundland launched its Body Stories collection at the end of last year, a range focusing on affordable, effective, and everyday skincare essentials. Jumping on the milky formula trend, a Milky Micellar Water is included in the range and retails for only £1. I decided to test out this affordable buy against Beauty of Joseon's Glow Replenishing Rice Milk, which is one of my current favourite products in my routine. They are, of course, slightly different in the sense that Poundland's is a micellar water, so it aims to remove make-up and impurities while providing a glowing base. However, I wanted to see if Poundland's glow could live up to a pricier purchase. Poundland Body Stories Milky Micellar Water review Pros Fragrance free, gentle and great for sensitive skin, great price Cons Not as glowy as other milky products, doesn't remove make-up as easily as other micellar waters Upon first use, I was really impressed with the thick consistency of the micellar water. I prefer a richer formula with these types of products. I was a little conscious that this would leave too much of a glow, one that borders on shiny, but was pleasantly surprised to see this was not the case. Infused with ceramides and watermelon extract, this formula injects a boost of hydration into your skin immediately after use, which you can immediately see on the skin. Plus, being fragrance-free gets some brownie points from me. My skin can be pretty sensitive to added scents or harsh ingredients, but this soothing, moisturising formula didn't cause me any issues. And I was sceptical considering the price is so low. My main criticism was that the results were just not quite as glowy or as much of a long-lasting glow as I would like. Or compared to other milky products, such as Beauty of Joseon's Rice Milk. However, if you prefer a more subtle radiance, this will work well for you. Considering the £1 price tag on this Poundland buy, I would absolutely purchase it again. It may not have provided super long-lasting hydration and radiance compared to other pricier buys, but it worked as a fantastic base under make-up for that 'lit-from-within' look. It's currently not available to shop online but is available in your local Poundland store. Beauty of Joseon Glow Replenishing Rice Milk review Pros Ideal for oily skin, gives that "glass skin" effect, radiant rather than shiny Cons Very watery consistency I'm already an avid user of milky toners, so it was unsurprising that I enjoyed using Beauty of Joseon's one so much. However, what cemented this one in particular as my new go-to is how well it works for oily skin. Other milky toners can sometimes lean on the side of shiny, rather than radiant, but that wasn't the case with this rice milk. Not to mention, I got literally stopped in the street and complimented on my "glass skin", which hasn't happened to me with the other milky toners I've used. It definitely gives that luminous, "I drink three litres of water a day" glow, and because it's infused with rice extract and rice amino acids, it actually feeds your skin with a whole load of vitamins and antioxidants. My only criticism is that I would prefer the consistency were slightly thicker; it is far more watery than other milky toners I've used in the past, and that leads me to pouring out a bit too much product every time I use it. Overall, however, I think it's the perfect glowy but not greasy base for under makeup or those makeup-free days when you want your skin to do all the talking.

Cole Palmer and girlfriend fuel rumours with social media antics after 'difficult' admission
Chelsea and England ace Cole Palmer has been dating influencer Connie Grace, but there has been speculation that the couple have broken up after it emerged that they are no longer following each other on social media Cole Palmer and his influencer girlfriend Connie Grace have unfollowed each other on social media, prompting rumours that the couple have broken up. Palmer recently won the FIFA Club World Cup with Chelsea, starring in the final as the Blues beat Paris Saint-Germain 3-0. Palmer had a hand in all three goals, scoring two and notching an assist, but Grace was not among the other wives and girlfriends that joined Chelsea on the pitch at MetLife Stadium to celebrate the victory. And the couple have now sparked speculation of a break-up by no longer following each other on Instagram. Palmer and Grace have known each other since they were 17, but did not go public with their relationship until November last year when they appeared together at the GQ Men of the Year Awards. Grace has 38,000 followers on Instagram and runs her own nail salon business in Manchester. Opening up about their relationship in Amazon Prime documentary 'England's Lions: A New Generation', Grace said: "I think we knew me through mutual friends so I think he probably had his eye on me. "Oh, he's warm and cuddly. Well, with me, hopefully with no one else. When you know how much someone wants something and you know that's someone's dream, you just feel so proud." Grace continued: "Cole now is still the same Cole that I met when I was 17. Obviously, he's changed, he's grown up, and his life now is completely different, but he's still the same boy, he's still laid-back Cole. "Cole will adapt to whatever situation he's in. He's not bothered that he's that far from home because all he wants to do is play football and if it means leaving home and being in a place which is completely different to where he's from, he'll do it. "He's not bothered about the whole fame side of it and he's not bothered what people think of him. "He is only just bothered about scoring goals and doing well for his team, doing well for his country, and you've got to love him for that." However, rumours of their breakup comes after Palmer admitted he has been having a "difficult time" recently. After scoring against Palmeiras in the quarter-finals of the Club World Cup, Palmer ran over to the Chelsea bench to celebrate with teammate Tosin Adabioyo. And when asked about the celebration, Palmer explained: "That's my boy. Obviously, I've had a difficult time these past whatever months on and off the pitch, but he's always been there for me and he's helped me a lot. "So, yeah, I just thought I'd go over to him."
