As the summer season approaches, it's time to dust off those vibrant hues and floral dresses from our wardrobes. This is typically when folks indulge in a bit of retail therapy to spruce up their attire for the warmer months.
There are numerous high-quality brands available for customers to choose from for weddings, events, summer soirees and everything in between. However, splurging isn't always the best option, but thankfully, Roman has reduced their Pink Floral Shirred Maxi Dress to £32 from £48 on their website.
The floral frock, available in sizes 10 to 20, is described as a playful maxi dress featuring a floral print, button-through design, v-neck and short sleeves. With a shirred waistline, the dress is designed to flatter figures, boasting a flowy fit and flare silhouette that grazes the floor.

Fully machine washable and versatile enough to be dressed up for an event or toned down with a denim jacket and flats, this dress is suitable for a variety of occasions - making it a must-have addition to wardrobes this season.
Should the style not be to everyone's taste, there are plentiful alternatives available such as the Lipsy Green Floral Print Lace Mix Fit and Flare Midi Dress going for £90 at Next. It offers both regular and petite fits, spans sizes from 6 to 18, and is touted as being ideal for wedding guests, race day attendees, or the mother of the bride, reports MyLondon.

Roman's Pink Floral Shirred Maxi Dress is available on their website.
If you're after something different, try the Pink Lily Print Halterneck Maxi Dress priced at £26.99 from New Look, featuring a slinky jersey fabric, halterneck design and a bodycon silhouette.
Nonetheless, the Roman dress boasts an impressive 4.5 out of 5-star rating on their site. A satisfied customer commented: "Absolutely love this dress. The fabric is lovely and there is lots of it! I will sew up the split but that's just my preference and as I'm only 5'2" I've got to take 4" off the length! I will be wearing it to a July wedding."
Another shared: "I'm between a size 12 and 14. Size 14 fitted me perfectly."
While the website itself had no further reviews, shoppers have taken to Trustpilot to detail their experiences with Roman. One wrote: "Great service and excellent customer care. Great quality products."
Others however weren't quite as impressed, as one critic mentioned: "Not too impressed with the quality of the dress."

And another voiced concern over sizing: "Far too long for a midi dress."
Yet, if what you seek is a fetching frock at a more affordable price point, the Pink Floral Shirred Maxi Dress from Roman might just tick all the boxes.

Glastonbury's best dressed celebs are all wearing one specific style of wellies
Glastonbury has set a new festival fashion trend this year, with celebs like Billie Piper and Lily James all spotted wearing the same pair of £55 ankle length wellies The final day of Glastonbury Festival is upon us but that doesn't mean the fashion looks are slowing down. Yesterday saw countless celebrities making an appearance at Worthy Farm, and all of our best-dressed favourites had one item in particular in common – a pair of ankle length wellies. The Chelsea boot-inspired wellies were spotted on the feet of everyone from Billie Piper and Lily James to Daisy Edgar-Jones at this year's Glastonbury, cementing them as a festival essential. The main pair of choice seemed to be Barbour's Black Wilton Chelsea Wellington Boots, which you can pick up for £55 at Next right now. The ankle length wellies are the perfect combination of stylish and functional. Unlike a full-length pair of wellies, which can make you way too warm when the temperatures are high, an ankle length pair lets you feel comfortable and cool whilst still protecting your feet from any mud. Not to mention they're much easier to pull on and off when you're ready to crawl into your tent at the end of the day. The Chelsea Wellington Boots are also easy to style with any outfit, working just the same as a regular pair of ankle boots. You can easily pair them with everything from midi skirts and mini dresses to a simple pair of shorts or jeans. Billie Piper chose to wear hers with an oversized green waterproof jacket and a pair of black micro shorts underneath, showing off her tanned legs whilst still being warm and dry. Lily James, on the other hand, opted for a pair of sporty white drawstring shorts, with a beige crop top and a quilted bomber jacket to go with her ankle length wellies. Daisy Edgar-Jones swapped the Barbour's version for a pair of Hunter Original Rubber Chelsea Boots, which are currently on sale down from £145 to £58. She channelled 00s Alexa Chung one day, teaming them with some simple wide leg denim shorts and a vintage-looking satin camisole top. Another day she opted for a flowing white midi dress and raffia shoulder bag, showing just how versatile the wellies are. The Barbour Chelsea Wellington Boots come in four different colour options including black, navy and olive green, whilst Hunter's Original Rubber Chelsea Boots are available in either black or ivory. If you want to bring a fun pop of colour with your wellies (it is festival season, after all) then these Bobbi Ankle Wellies from Merry People (£89.950 are ideal. They come in a whole host of bright colours including yellow, bright pink, rust and burgundy, with a grand total of 16 different colours to choose from. Although ankle length wellies are obviously a top pick for the summer's festivals, they're also pretty useful for your everyday life, too. You can wear them for walking the dog, for a day out in the country with family or even just to avoid soggy feet on your winter commute. We'll definitely be adding a pair to our footwear roster ASAP.

I tried kids clothing as a size 10 with DD's to see if I could really save money while still looking stylish
All recommendations within this article are informed by expert editorial opinion. If you click on a link in this story we may earn affiliate revenue. KID YOU NOT I tried kids clothing as a size 10 with DD's to see if I could really save money while still looking stylish Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) BEING chronically online means I'm inundated with all of the latest trends - whether it's the latest must-have accessory or ways to save on cash. And like everyone else, I'm trying to keep to a budget during the cost of living crisis without missing out on the latest styles. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 9 I tried kids' clothing to see just how much money it can save you Credit: Leane Hall In recent months, fashionistas on social media have sworn by buying from the kids' clothing section to save cash on their summer wardrobe. Paige Joanna, a size 12, revealed she regularly shops Next kids' clothing, while Regan Ellis, a size 10 to 12, swears by Primark's clothing line for children. In the UK, clothing for children is VAT so in theory, it should be cheaper than adult sizes, which have the tax added. And savvy shoppers have spotted that sizes 15-16 for girls often fit women of a size 12, with Next sizing guides even promoting it on their sizing chart. At 5ft 6" and a size 10 with DD's and a need to update my wardrobe whenever the season changes, I decided to give it a go myself to see if it was cheaper, on trend and if they really fit. Next The British store is widely loved by parents for its quality baby clothes. So I decided to see if the kids' clothes were any good as well. I picked up this on-trend sardine T-shirt in a kid's size 16 for £15 and was pleasantly surprised. I assumed it would be a tight fit, but it was actually oversized and was a whole £5 cheaper than the women's version. I then tried on a dress as I assumed it would be harder for a woman with DD's to fit into and was correct. I tried the fitted Pink Mesh Flower Sequin Party Dress that was £31, but it was super ill-fitting and tight around the arms. It also wasn't much cheaper than other event dresses in the women's section, like this pretty pink bandeu number that's £36. 9 Some pieces fit perfectly, but dresses were 50/50 Credit: Leane Hall I'm a size 14 and did the best Tesco summer haul - run before new co-ord sells out Primark 9 These barrel jeans were the perfect fit Credit: Leane Hall 9 This dress wouldn't even go past my shoulders Credit: Leane Hall My next stop was Primark and I was hoping to see some much more affordable prices. The clothes sizing in Primark stops slightly younger at 14-15 years old but it didn't put me off grabbing a selection to try. The first was an adorable Lemon Print Bubble Hem Dress for £12, which honed in on the Mediterranean trend, but I never found out how it looked on as I couldn't get it over my shoulders. A similar puffball dress from the ladies' collection was £25. Next was a pair of trendy barrel leg jeans in grey for £14 compared to the women's £16 version. The trousers were a perfect fit, as well as saving you a couple of quid, so I'd call it a win. Next was a striped shirred cami top for just £4, it fit perfectly and actually was a little big in some places. The price was an absolute steal compared to the Gingham Shirred Top in the women's section, which was £13. Last but not least was a knitted button-up waistcoat from the girls' range that was £8. It wasn't quite the right fit around the chest, but I could only get it in a size 11-12 years so a couple of sizes up would have been perfect, and yet again was a bargain compared to the Rita Ora Knitted Waistcoat that was £13. 9 The shirred cami was a bargain and perfect for summer Credit: Leane Hall 9 The knitted waistcoat was also a trendy option Credit: Leane Hall New Look 9 This dress is perfect for hot weather, but wasn't much of a bargain Credit: Leane Hall 9 The jeans were half the price of the women's and on trend Credit: Leane Hall The last place on my shopping spree was New Look where I got a range of items. First, I tried the Yellow Ditsy Print Tiered Mini Dress in a size 15 for £22.99. After the last two dresses failed to fit, I figured this would be the same but because of its stretch cotton material it fit like a glove. It was slightly cheaper than the women's yellow mini dress on offer which is £25. I also picked up these on-trend cow print barrel leg jeans that are on sale for £16.79, These were a tight fit but I loved the unique print. Plus, they were half the price of the leopard print jeans in the women's section for £32. I tried a blue striped bandeau top for £12.99 which did fit but the women's version was actually cheaper at £7.99. Then there was the denim skort which again was a tight fit and cost £19.99 compared to the grown up tailored version that was £29. 9 The skort was a little tight and the bandeau was pricier Credit: Leane Hall Final Thoughts While some of the clothes fit perfectly, others, clearly, did not. You can save some cash shopping in the kids' section but not enough to make me start shopping there all the time. I'd also steer away from shopping online, as you want to try the pieces on before buying.
