M&S' 'flattering' £29.50 linen top is 'light and comfortable'
Shoppers love the 'light and comfortable' linen top that's been praised for its 'flattering' shape M&S shoppers are smitten with a "stylish" linen top that's "very flattering" and "comfortable." Customers have shared glowing reviews for the £29.50 Linen Rich Square Neck Vest Top. Not all sizes are available, but the top is currently in stock in sizes 8 to 20. M&S ' product description says: "Breeze through sunny days in style with this lightweight linen-blend top. It's designed in a regular fit with a flattering square neckline for a modern touch. The sleeveless style keeps you cool while offering effortless freedom of movement." Similar styles from M&S include the £25 Linen Rich Square Neck Vest Top, the £35 Linen Rich V-Neck Lace Insert Top, and the £39.50 Linen Rich Cutwork Detail Top. Elsewhere, various retailers offer alternative styles. For example, Next has a £26.50 White Sleeveless Shirt With Linen that could suit shoppers looking for workwear, Nobody's Child has a £42 White Linen-blend Swing Top that could impress those looking for a relaxed fit. Seasalt Cornwall also offers a £47.95 Lighthouse Station Linen Vest. That said, shoppers may still prefer the M&S Linen Rich Square Neck Vest Top. It's loved by reviewers, who praised the look and feel of the product. However, some reported sizing issues, with many commenting on the straps. One happy shopper said: "Lovely material, falls really nicely, wide straps are very flattering, bought for summer, good with jeans and satin skirt etc." A second reviewer wrote: "Very flattering, light and comfortable summer top." Another fan agreed: "Easy and flattering. Some of us need a sun top which is more than a vest top. This one ticks that box very well. Good feel to the fabric." However, a shopper who had a problem with the fit said: "This top is light weight and very versatile. My only gripe with it is that it makes this weird looking crease in the middle & the straps fall down (a lot!) I suggest sizing down." A similar response read: "This is a nice top and this may be down to me but when trying it on the left shoulder kept slipping off onto my arm, so returned it." Someone else replied: "Great fabric. Good value. But no strap adjustment. "Liked the style and fabric. Good cover on the top, however had to return as the straps would not stay up when I tried it on and there is no adjustment. Bought for holiday." There were also mixed views on the silhouette. A reviewer shared: "Lovely top which will be perfect in warmer weather. My only slight criticism is that it's rather shapeless but I'm sure I'll be grateful for it being baggy when I'm hot." But another wrote: "I love a denim top, this is nice but I didn't like it quite enough to keep for the price. It's nice fabric but I would have liked it to have a bit more structure. The neckline is a good shape though." Despite some criticism, the majority of shoppers liked the top. For instance, someone said they liked the top when they sized down, explaining: "Fabric is soft and looks very fresh for summer. But it sizes very big. "Buy small otherwise it does a strange crease in the front." Another pleased fan said: "Love this top, great quality, comfortable and stylish."

Dunelm drops two new colours of table lamp that makes home 'feel like a hotel'
Shoppers can now get their hands on the Clementine Table Lamp in two of the trendiest shades this year Dunelm customers have discovered a 'classy' table lamp that adds 'a real statement' to their homes, even giving bedrooms a 'hotel-like' feel. The Clementine Table Lamp deemed 'great value for money' was originally only available in a neutral cream hue and while this colour is still proving popular, the brand have dropped two brand new shades. Retailing at £49 but appearing 'so much more expensive' in person, shoppers can now pick up the table lamp in two of the trendiest colours of the season - Mocha and Pistachio. The Clementine Table Lamp offers a modern classic style, blending a natural finished rope-wrapped base with a linen shade and brushed satin brass for a truly timeless, yet luxurious aesthetic. Its hue will seamlessly blend into any existing decor, particularly homes with a minimalist finish. The coastal chic trend is currently ruling home collections, and the Clementine Table Lamp certainly fits the bill. Adding a calming touch to any room, the lamp can effortlessly illuminate a dark corner in your home, or shoppers can buy two for less than £100 and use them as bedside table lamps. To further embrace the coastal chic theme, create a tranquil atmosphere in your home by incorporating natural elements like stone and wood. This Graham & Green Large Wave Decorative Bowl is another stylish choice, priced at £55. Blue and white colour schemes naturally evoke serenity, and this Blue Coastal Embroidered Crab Cushion, £22 each from Next, are the perfect match and a bit of fun. Dunelm's Clementine Table Lamp has captivated customers, earning an impressive 4.8 out of five-star rating from 61 reviewers. One reviewer said: "A really lovely lamp and excellent quality at a very reasonable price. Dunelm makes it so cost effective and easy to update the things that make the home cosy and lovely to look at and relax in." Another customer praised its sophistication, commenting: "This table lamp is absolutely classy, with a timeless design that adds a touch of elegance to any space." A third buyer expressed delight: "I purchased two of these lamps when redecorating one of our bedrooms, and I'm thrilled with them. I initially saw them in-store, then ordered them online a few days later. "Order status, delivery date and time emails and texts kept me fully informed of their arrival. They look and feel so much more expensive than they are, and I'm really pleased with my purchase." Not all reviews reached full marks, with one critique citing the less sturdy shade: "I've dropped a star because the shade it comes with is flimsy. The quality could be much better." Nonetheless, this seems a minor hiccup for other satisfied shoppers, as one particularly contented customer remarked: "Beautiful and gives lots of light. Stylish and well worth the money. I ended up buying two!" Available for £49, the Clementine Lamp from Dunelm can be found here. Enthusiasts of natural decor might also fancy the Lina Rope Table Lamp, £35 at Dunelm, recommended for its appeal to those who appreciate a 'natural themed decor'.

'I'll be wearing this pretty postcard print jumpsuit all summer'
The colourful organic cotton jumpsuit is super comfy and lightweight The vibrant postcard print is dominating the fashion world this summer, with various brands incorporating the bold design into their garments. Joanie Clothing is no exception, with the retailer using the stunning print in a colourful short sleeved jumpsuit that I fell in love with the moment I laid eyes on it. What makes the Ithaca Postcard Print Short Sleeve Boilersuit different is that Joanie Clothing has used a vintage-inspired watercolour design that feels romantic and enchanting. The jumpsuit, which costs £79 and comes in sizes eight to 26, is made from a lightweight organic cotton with added stretch, making it perfect for the summer months for all-day wear. The garment boasts a neat classic collar and cute button fastenings, with an extra concealed button inside the waistband that accentuates the waist for a flattering fit. The jumpsuit has a lined bodice and slightly cropped legs that help keep the wearer cool on warm days, plus it has handy side pockets. As soon as the Ithaca Postcard Print Short Sleeve Boilersuit arrived on my doorstep, I went straight to my bedroom to try it on. The postcard pattern is even more beautiful in person; I immediately knew it was going to be one of my favourite garments of the summer. I expected the garment to be slightly creased from its journey to me, but this wasn't the case. When I first slipped into the jumpsuit, I noticed how lightweight and soft the fabric was. It felt super comfy, partly due to the elasticated channel at the back of the waist. Ithaca Postcard Print Short Sleeve Boilersuit £79 Joanie Clothing Buy here Product Description I am 5'8" and the size 14 fits me perfectly, with both the body and the legs being the desired length. The only downside to the jumpsuit was that there were a few loose pieces of thread hanging off the button holes and the stitching around the collar, but this was easily fixable by trimming them with scissors. Other retailers who have incorporated the postcard print into their garments include New Look and Next. New Look's White Postcard Print Wide Leg Trousers cost £29.99 and are available in sizes six to 18, while Next's White Postcard Print 100% Cotton Square Neck A-Line Midi Dress is priced at £48 and comes in sizes ranging from six to 22. I waited to wear the Ithaca Postcard Print Short Sleeve Boilersuit on a sunny day when it would keep me nice and cool and the colours would truly pop. During the last heatwave that graced the UK, I wore it for lunch at a seafront pub with a pair of lilac platform converse where it proved to be the perfect outfit choice. Despite the pub having all of the windows and doors open, it was still pretty warm, but the jumpsuit kept me cool. Because it's so comfy, I happily sat for hours with no discomfort, even after devouring my meal. I'm going on holiday to Portugal soon, and the jumpsuit is going to be coming with me. I'll more than likely wear it with a pair of sandals to travel in due to it being so comfy, and then I will wear it for an evening of al fresco dining overlooking the Atlantic ocean. It seems I'm not the only person who is obsessed with the Ithaca Postcard Print Short Sleeve Boilersuit, as it boasts an impressive five-star rating on the Joanie Clothing website. One delighted buyer wrote: "Love this jumpsuit. The watercolour print is beautiful, the material is quality and it fits like a dream. Would 100% recommend." Someone else commented: "Love this item, looks fab, fits perfectly with room around the middle. I bought my usual size, I'm a 34G bust and it fitted perfectly at the top with no gaping. I'm going to wear it for an evening do at a wedding and it will be great for holidays. Very comfortable." It's worth noting, however, that one shopper had to size up, as they explained: "Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. The print is beautiful. I went up a size otherwise I wouldn't have been able to get it on and off, as I'm big busted and a big girl. It looks so gorgeous on and I can't wait to wear it out. Highly recommended." Fashion fans wanting to try Joanie Clothing's Ithaca Postcard Print Short Sleeve Boilersuit for themselves can buy it here for £79. For those who prefer dresses, the retailer has also used the pretty pattern in the Santorini Postcard Print Belted Midi Dress that's also priced at £79.
