Next's 'comfy from first wear' cowboy boots are 'bang on trend' for summer
It's officially festival season for many music lovers right now. From Glasgow's TRNSMT to Cheshire's Creamfields, there are still many on the calendar left to attend.
For those trekking through fields, it pays to wear the right footwear that are also on trend. On the lucky days it doesn't downpour, there are a few trendier alternatives to the classic wellies.
That's why we think that these £59 Forever Comfort Leather Ankle Cowboy Boots from Next would finish any festival outfit perfectly, whether that be the classic denim shorts and suede jacket or a boho-inspired, floaty dress.
With their Western-inspired style, they are "bang on trend" for summer '25 and festival fashion in general. Crafted from a soft leather material, they won't rub or irritate bare skin when worn all day and night.
Designed with a cushioned footbed and short block heel, they are said to be "very comfortable", even when worn for hours at a time. They are finished with the traditional zip-up fastening at the side of the boot.

Product Description
Available in both a standard/wide fit and an extra/wide fit to cater to more sizes, they can be purchased in a variety of colours that include black, champagne gold and leopard print, but some are selling out fast.
When we last checked, sizes still ranged from a three through to a nine, with half-sizes also available for those who need to purchase that in-between size.
For the fashion fans who like to wear something a touch snazzier, then River Island's Silver Leather Western Heeled Ankle Boots are now £32 after being reduced from their usual £80.
Meanwhile, Boohoo shoppers can fully embrace the Western trend by opting for these knee-length Vintage Look Western Style Tassel Detail Cowboy Boots that cost £54.
Considering Next's own cowboy boots are selling fast, it's understandable why shoppers have been keen to express their enthusiasm, with reviews for multiple colours saying they are "comfy from first wear" and "look more expensive" than their actual worth.
One five-star review read: "These boots are absolutely gorgeous. I usually don't buy shoes like these, it was a real treat and loved them so much I ended up buying them in another colour. Really comfortable, suede is lovely, subtle cowboy style, 10/10."
Someone else gushed: "Love them. Comfortable from the first wear, and I wore them all day with no blisters."
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."
Save 10 per cent on Roman's Fuchsia Floral Ruched Waist Maxi Dress by using the code HAPPY at the checkout now.
Another praised: "Gorgeous boots, very comfortable but very stylish too !! Great to wear with jeans, trousers or dresses, bang on trend! Well made & look more expensive than their price tag. I would highly recommend these fab boots."
Not everyone was as pleased with the fit, as one shopper left a three-star review that read: "Well priced boots, but they just weren't comfortable and not a great fit. They look nice though."
Someone else praising the fit wrote in their own review: "Very comfortable, no need to break in. Survived a complete soaking whilst on holiday. Highly recommend."

TRSNMT weekend set to be hotter than Tenerife as temperatures soar to 28C
Those heading to TRNSMT best have some sun cream at the ready at Glasgow is set to have temperatures as high at 28 degrees this weekend. Those who have been counting down the days until TRNSMT will be happy to hear that they will be able to enjoy listening to a variety of their favourite artists in the glorious sunshine this weekend as mercury levels are set to rise as high as 28C. Predicted to be hotter than Tenerife, residents of Glasgow and those travelling in for the festival, which takes place from July 11 to July 13, will need to make sure they stay hydrated and slathered in sun cream as the city is hit with a mini heatwave. While the summer holidays haven't gotten off to the best start, with patches of rain and wild winds hitting the country, all this is expected to take a turn as Scots should enjoy some warm and dry weather this weekend. During this scorcher of a weekend, big names such as The Script, Jade, Snow Patrol, Gracie Abrams and 50 Cent are set to take the stage at Glasgow Green. For music fans descending into Glasgow on Friday, the Met Office predicts that temperatures will soar up to 26C with sunny spells. On Saturday, temperatures are set to sizzle at 28C before dropping back down to 26C on Sunday as the festival comes to an end - with the weather being partly cloudy at night. This is a stark contrast to last year's event, where music fans had to compete with the wild wind to hear their favourite artists. Instead, Scots will feel as though they are on their holidays as the city is set to be hotter than the Canary Islands hotspot of Tenerife - which is predicted to stay at a steady 22C this weekend. Glasgow isn't the only part of Scotland to be hit with the heat, Edinburgh is also set to see highs of 28C on Saturday, while Aberdeen will enjoy 23C. In their long range forecast, which is set for July 11 to July 20, the Met Office says: "Many parts of the UK are expected to be part way through a period of high temperatures and humidity at the start of this period. "The duration, geographical extent and intensity of the heat are all rather uncertain at present, but there is the potential for some very hot weather to be realised, especially across some inland southern and eastern areas. "With this also comes the possibility of thunderstorms, in part because of the high temperatures, but also in association with any frontal systems moving in from the west, which would ultimately usher in cooler and fresher conditions. "Towards the latter part of the period, northwestern areas stand a greater chance of experiencing rather more changeable conditions, with drier and occasionally hotter spells more likely further southeast." To help tackle the heat at TRNSMT, festival goers are able to bring in handheld fans, small travel-size sun cream, sun glasses and 500ml water bottles that can be filled up at the variety of water stations placed around the site. However, it should be noted that soft collapsible water bottles and folding pouches are permitted on site and that they need to be empty on arrival. Music fans won't be allowed to bring in hard plastic, glass or metal bottles. For those looking for a water bottle to bring to TRNSMT, Amazon is selling a collapsible water bottle for £14.99. Made with food grade silicone, this spill free bottle can expand to 21.5cm when full and folds down to 11.5cm when empty. In terms of fans, Amazon is also selling the HandFan Portable Handheld Fan for £21.99. As a 2-in-1 device, shoppers will be able to cool down in an instant with the fan that has three wind speeds, while also being able to use the device as a power bank if their phone is in need of an emergency charge.

Shoppers race to Asda for £22 dress that ‘looks like M&S', drapes beautifully and has hidden feature
SHOPPERS are going wild for a "lovely" denim midi dress in Asda that they've hailed as an M&S dupe - and it's cheap too. George is the supermarket's in-house fashion label and regularly delights fashion fans with its stylish buys at bargain prices. And if you're in need of a lightweight denim frock to add to your summer wardrobe, then this is the one for you. The Navy Sleeveless Zip Front Tiered Denim Midi Dress is priced at £22 and is available in sizes eight to 24. It has a gathered waist for cinching you in, a stylish zip front fastening and "drapes beautifully". The dress has also delighted shoppers with its "hidden" pockets and can be a transitional piece for autumn with a top worn underneath. Thrilled shoppers have been raving about the tiered dress which they've hailed as a five-star buy. One said: "The fit is lovely and I love the dark denim colour! Very flattering on and not heavy material at all. Would highly recommend." A second wrote: "This is a lovely dress for the price. Nice material, not hard like true denim. Would recommend. "You can wear on its own or with T-shirt under for cooler weather or thin jumper and boots in winter." "What a lovely dress! Looks like a M&S or Next brand", cried a third. "Love the zip detail. Fits just right over bust without gaping and has ample room below the waist. Has hidden lined pockets! I'm a size 14 and did the best Tesco summer haul - run before new co-ord sells out "The denim is lightweight and the dark colour is so they did this in other shades too." A fourth chimed in: "Love this dress, fits perfectly, drapes beautifully. "Great price, ordered another for myself and one for my recommend." A fifth added: "So ordered this denim dress as I loved the zip front detail and the dark denim. "I absolutely love it, great shape with large pockets." Meanwhile, a sixth said: "I love this dress, it is long, floaty, has pockets, like the zip - did I mention it had pockets?! "Good generous sizing, think I could have even gone down a size. Perfect to wear on its own, or even with a T-shirt, shirt etc underneath, very versatile. Pinafore style." Elsewhere in store, shoppers are going wild for a £20 floral dress in that's "perfect in every way" and has you sorted for holiday or weddings. One gushed: "Just love this dress, great colours, style and fabric. Just perfect." And fashion fans are loving the "prettiest" £35 Tesco dress that's perfect for weddings and comes in an on-trend, classy colour. Is supermarket fashion the new high street? DEPUTY Fashion Editor Abby McHale weighs in: The supermarkets have really upped their game when it comes to their fashion lines. These days, as you head in to do your weekly food shop you can also pick up a selection of purse-friendly, stylish pieces for all the family. Tesco has just announced a 0.7 per cent increase in the quarter thanks to a 'strong growth in clothing' and M&S has earnt the title of the number one destination for womenswear on the high street. Asda's clothing line George has made £1.5 million for the supermarket in 2023, 80 per cent of Sainsbury's clothes sold at full price rather than discounted and Nutmeg at Morrisons sales are also up 2 per cent in the past year. So what is it about supermarket fashion that is becoming so successful? Apart from the clothing actually being affordable, it's good quality too - with many being part of schemes such as the Better Cotton Initiative. A lot of the time they keep to classic pieces that they know will last the customer year after year. Plus because they buy so much stock they can turn around pieces quickly and buy for cheaper because of the volumes.
