Next's 'very flattering' £24 denim shorts are a 'summer staple'
Next shoppers are heaping praise on a "perfect" pair of denim shorts they've been buying online. The retailer is well known for its clothing and accessories - and there may be a new must-have in stock.
The Mid Blue Denim Boy Shorts are priced at £24 and are available in four colours; mid blue, black, ecru and bleach denim. They feature a boy shorts design, a longer inseam and a turn-up hem.
Next has noted that the shorts have a "looser fit than usual" and are machine washable. They come in sixes six to 22, in regular or petite.
Alternatively, shoppers could snap up the Denim Mom High Waisted Shorts for £25 from M&S, while New Look stocks the Light Blue A-Line Denim Shorts on sale for £20.99, down from £27.99. ASOS also has the denim A line short in lightwash blue for £21, down from £26.
The full Next description reads: "Your classic, everyday denim shorts. They are mid-rise, designed to sit on your belly button and made from comfort stretch denim, which means they maintain an authentic denim look whilst having a small amount of stretch to allow for a more comfortable ready-to-wear short. They are finished with a turn-up hem, which can be rolled up or down."
The shorts have racked up rave reviews online, with one shopper writing: "Good quality material, perfect fit. True to size." A second said: "Lovely denim shorts, perfect fit. I buy these every year."
A third shopper added: "Fit was great, look lovely on" and another said: "Lovely length if you're still wanting to show a bit of leg but not too much. I wore these all the time on holiday. Really great summer staple for your wardrobe!"
However, some shoppers did have issues with the shorts once they arrived. One said: "I returned the item, didn't like the colour when they arrived."
A second added: "Not my preference compared to the same ones I've bought over the years, they are much shorter and feel really cheep."
Despite this, many shoppers continued to praise the shorts. One person said: "The shorts are a really good fit. The sizing is a little generous so you may need to size down if you have a slim build. They are high waisted and very comfortable to wear."
A second wrote: "These shorts are really comfortable. They fit perfectly and look really good. The material is of good quality." A third added: "Love these shorts, they are really comfortable, the denim is nice and soft, and they look great!"
A fourth shopper wrote: "I bought these for a recent holiday and they were perfect. A good fit and great style." A fifth said: "This are perfect for summer, not too short and a lovely fit."
Another added: "I ordered these for a friend who's had them before. She loves them. They are comfy and very flattering. She said the sizing was spot on."

Kickers' 'durable' Back to School shoe range that 'lasts all year'
Kickers have launched a new campaign with 10% off first orders for school returning in September While the school summer holidays still feel like an age away for kids, parents may already be thinking of putting some money aside to buy new clothes and shoes for the new year in September. This can often be a stressful time for families in terms of expenses, so the earlier these are sorted, the better. Kickers, a brand known for quality school shoes, has a great deal on essentials ahead of the new term. The brand has launched its back to school campaign, Back with a Kick, which has 10% off first orders and free delivery for those who spend over £60. Back with a Kick has been described as the brand's strongest collection to date, with styles for every student. The range is said to help kids to stand out and be noticed for all the right reasons, ensuring they feel fearless from the first day back on the playground. Plus, the shoes are durable, functional, and brimming with style. Among the collection, shoppers can choose from a range of shoes including the Kickers Youth Tovni Lacer Leather shoes in Black for £58 - or £52.20 after the 10% discount - which are a blend of sporty and smart. The shoe comes in sizes 3 to 6 for kids and they have a low profile and sleek flat sole. They are also crafted from durable, high-quality matte leather and are finished with flat cotton laces. Another option is the Junior Girls Kick T-Bar Meadow in Patent Leather Black for £52.20 down from £58, a shiny patent leather shoe with flower buckles and a T-Bar style. Alternatively, shoppers can grab the Junior Girls Adlar MJ Scallop Leather Black shoe for the same price, which comes in sizes 1 to 13 and is inspired by the Mary Jane style. This shoe features delicate scallop detailing, is crafted from high quality leather and the style is durable and easy to wear. Kickers Back with a Kick range Product Description If this particular collection isn't for everyone, shoppers could also try the McKenzie Parkin Junior for £35 from JDSports which comes in a range of sizes and is cut from synthetic leather. The shoes also feature a lace fastening and a padded collar for support. Underfoot, they sit on a cushioned midsole and have a grippy rubber outsole. Another option is the M&S Collection Kids' Leather Riptape School Shoes for between £36-£38, which are available in sizes 2 and a half to 9. The Kickers collection, however, has been rated highly on their website as one shopper said: "I have bought 3 pairs of Tovni shoes for my granddaughters and they've loved them. They've been hard wearing and lasted the school tough test well." Another said: "We always buy Kickers for both my boys for school. Long lasting, comfy from the off and just a great all rounder shoe for boys with a cool but smart trainer style look. Top notch, would recommend." Not everyone felt the same way, however, and one customer shared: "Too small. Width was very narrow." "This is our second pair. The first pair lasted two years. Good quality and nice style," said another shopper. However, Kickers' Back with a Kick campaign, with its 10% off and free delivery deals, sounds like it could be a great choice for parents looking to get long-lasting, great quality shoes for Back to School season.

New Look's suede jacket for festivals that 'looks really expensive' now 40% less
Get festival ready by taking advantage of the high street retailer's discount. Still looking for something to wear this festival season? Then New Look shoppers have found just the jacket that is perfectly in fashion for summer '25. The western/cowboy-style trend has been on our radar pretty much this entire season, with many retailers offering boho-inspired edits that would look perfect at the likes of TRNSMT and Reading. Which is exactly why we were delighted to spot New Look's Tan Fringe Trimmed Faux Suede Jacket, which matches the 'in' style at the moment, currently enjoying a 40 per cent discount online. Retailing at £49.99, fashion fans can bag it for just £29.99, saving a decent £20 off the RRP. With suede back in for summer and more festivals set to take place in the coming months, we expect this to be a popular deal. With its "edgy" biker jacket silhouette, faux-suede material and fringed trims, it won't look out of place when worn with some frayed denim shorts, a basic tee and wellies when walking through the fields to catch your favourite music acts. Tan Fringe Trimmed Faux Suede Jacket Product Description The interior of the jacket is fully lined, while long sleeves, a collared neckline, a front zip and handy zipped side pockets that can stash smaller items such as a phone complete the design. As of writing, festival-goers will still be able to pick this tan-coloured jacket up in sizes six to 18 from the high street retailer's website. For anyone who'd maybe prefer a different material to suede, then we have spotted this Faux Leather Fringe Biker Jacket by V for Very on offer £22, reduced from £55, saving £33 off the RRP. For shoppers who'd prefer a sleeveless design that won't cause them to overheat amidst the higher temperatures, then we'd recommend looking into ASOS' premium suede fringe gilet in light tan as an alternative, although it is pricey at £180. As for New Look's own suede jacket, there's no denying that it ticks off all the trends for festival season, so it's not surprising to see that it has a 4.5 rating from shoppers who have said it "looks really expensive." One shopper who purchased it said: "Perfect fit - looks really expensive but was very reasonable." A second five-star review read: "Great jacket. Fits well, I bought size 12. It is lined and has zip pockets. My new fav jacket." Not everyone was impressed, as one shopper was left disappointed with both style and material. Leaving a three-star review, they wrote: "Lovely design but short and a lot of puckering The first jacket I've ever had from New Look that wasn't up to scratch. Fashion deal of the week Looking to make a statement this summer? Then this is the wardrobe update you need. Roman's Fuchsia Floral Ruched Waist Maxi Dress is said to be such a show-stopper, that customers say they get "stopped" and asked "where they bought it from." While it does retail at £48, fashion fans can add this pop of colour to their summer style for less, as the clothing retailer is offering it for 10 per cent less when using the code HAPPY at the checkout, reducing the total cost to £43.20. Falling to a floaty maxi-length hemline, it offers a "flattering" effect on the figure thanks to its fit-and-flare design, thick ruched waistline and tie-belt feature, all which will help streamline and cinch the body. Its short sleeves, lightweight material and its multi-coloured all-over floral print design make it the ultimate breezy and "eye-catching" choice for the current hot, humid days we are experiencing. Finished with a chic V-neckline and a wooden button detailing down the front, this colourful maxi dress is ideal for pairing with some chunky wedge sandals and maybe even a denim jacket for the unpredictable summer weather. The £48 frock is still available to buy in sizes 10 through to 20. There's also a pink floral version that is a touch less vibrant than the fuchsia colourway in the same sizes, with the exception of a 12. Averaging a near perfect 4.9 rating, one shopper praised: "I have this dress and wore it for the first time today. Went out to lunch and a number of people stopped me to say how nice my dress was. I can't remember the last time that happened." A second admiring shopper wrote: "Absolutely stunning so feminine, floaty got quite a few compliments. It will be going to Greece with me this year." "Also didn't hang well, but I'm an older customer who needs things to fit well and look smart, which as I said usually, I've never had any problems. Maybe was just this particular one. Might order another one to see if better made." It was the only negative review, as another pleased customer said: "Happy with this jacket. Bought for a present as the person is also having cowgirl boots from America to complement it."
