Rebecca then praised the “versatile” dress, adding: “How gorgeous would this be on holiday?”
But the third outfit – the Cotton Blend V-Neck Midi Tiered Dress – caused some division among M&S fans.

Rebecca was delighted with the bargain purchase, explaining, “I love this outfit.”
The influencer praised the “gorgeous” find on the high street, adding: “Lightweight quality, super comfortable.
“What a nice outfit, which you can wear both formally and informally.”

Why Everyone Loves M&S
Deputy fashion editor Abby McHale told Fabulous why M&S is the store of the moment. She explained:
“M&S has really done a great job this season, there are so many good products to be excited about.
“A brand once known for its ‘frumpy fashion’, although that idea has long since disappeared, it is now one of the leading high streets for women’s clothing.
“The handbag range in particular is super strong, with a 170% sales rate against plan, and many more designer dupes at a fraction of the price.
“The brand is also now #1 for style perceptions, up from #3 last year. This is due to a very strong design team that is focused on modernizing the brand, taking into account not only how the pieces look, but also how easy they are to wear.
“Price is also an important factor as you can get a lot of good quality pieces for under £30.
“Having given us a sneak peek at the upcoming collection, there are so many more amazing pieces to keep an eye out for in the coming months.
“Think leopard print dresses, colourful co-ords, embroidered boho jackets, plus lots of swimwear and great accessories, as well as great wardrobe pieces that will last year after year.”
Someone said: “Great, I have to go shopping!”
“I think the burgundy ombre dress would work really well for fall too!”
