M&S’s new striped shirt is ‘spring ready’ – it’s superior quality but the price is just right
A STRIPED cotton shirt is a summer wardrobe essential – and if you’re still on the lookout for one, best get racing to the local Marks & Spencer.
In the recent years, the popular high street retailer has really upped its fashion game – whether that’s a flattering summer dress scanning at £39 or a new ”must-have bag of the season”.
And it looks like their latest addition to the aisles, Pure Cotton Striped Collared Shirt, is no exception, already proving to be a major hit amongst shoppers.
The shirt, which is available both in their Regular and Petite section, features a navy striped design that would look perfect with a pair of jeans or white trousers.
The wardrobe essential is particularly perfect for a smart-casual collection and it boasts neat collared neckline and a button-through fastening.
Meanwhile, the long sleeves end in buttoned cuffs for a refined finish – however, you could just roll them up for a more relaxed fit with a white vest underneath layered with gold jewellery.
The shirt, which sells for £25, also comes in three other designs and prints – baby blue with white stripes, white with light pink stripes, as well as blue with white stripes, so there truly is one for everyone.
Although the shirt runs in a number of sizes, ranging from UK 6 to UK 24, the spring and summer must-have has already become so popular amongst fans some sizes are no longer available.
So, to avoid any disappointment, it’s best to act quick and head to the nearest M&S as soon as possible – or check the availability via their Find in Store search.
Gleaming in dozens of positive reviews, the wardrobe staple – which is said to run ”a little big” – has received an impressive four-star rating online.
One fashionista wrote: ”This is a lovely crisp cotton top. Looking forward to wearing it with jeans / leggings.
”Bought a size 12 instead of usual 14 as found bigger size a little on the large side.”
Another chimed in: ”Very stylish shirt, great quality and fit, excellent on its own or worn as an over shirt.”
Someone else said: ”Good quality, soft fabric.
”Perfect to wear with jeans. Very generous size and length. I’m a size 10 but the 8 fitted well.”
However, it’s also worth noting that whilst the reviews were encouraging for the most, there were also a few shoppers who were disappointed with their purchase.
One unhappy style lover said: ”Too big and baggy. Shame as fabric feels good quality.”
”Lovely shirt but unfortunately had to be sent back as it was much too long,” a second warned.
”I’m not sure I like the material, it is a bit shiny, I expected it to be a cotton feel,” a customer penned.
So whether you’ve got a sunny holiday booked or are looking for a stylish everyday shirt, you’ll need to be quick.
