All-time favourite
Date:17 December 2011
I have been buying these jumpers since they first appeared on the racks and am now replacing the originals which have seen better days. The price, style and colour range is very good. They wash fairly well but the cowl stretches quite a bit despite tumble drying which unfortunately means they never look as smart once washed. The new jumpers I have do seem to be much longer which is OK with trousers but not so flattering with skirts. Like many M&S jumpers I find the tops of the sleeves to be quite tight.
 
A slim fit pair of trousers will anchor your capsule wardrobe.

Not so 'slim leg'
Date:17 December 2011
Comfortable trousers but I would not consider them to be 'slim leg'. I have fairly chunky thighs but these trousers were still quite baggy on me. I ordered in long length to wear with heels & whilst they are fine they are not overly long which might be a problem if you are very tall; I'm 5'7". An 'OK' purchase but not trousers I would bother buying again.

Modern and stylish, this waistcoat has a chunky knit design. A versatile, easywear style.

Cosy, stylish layer
Date:16 December 2011
This is an extremely useful extra layer of warmth. I wore over black roll neck and black trousers which looked really good until I noticed it moults more than my cat! Having said this I still really like the waistcoat which looks equally good with smart trousers or casual with jeans or jeggings. I think it was good value when I purchased at 25% off but at full price I feel its a bit pricey.

Excellent - please don't shrink!
Date:12 December 2011
Wonderful to see a basic navy jumper as I was beginning to think they were extinct. I love cashmilon as I can't wear wool and this jumper is a perfect fit in my usual size. I have just one worry. I have two of these jumpers in red and green from last year and despite being washed at 30 degrees and dried on a coathanger they have both shrunk. I have tried buying a larger size to compensate for any shrinkage but the 'V' neck is then too low so I am hoping this one stays true to size.

Long and lovely, this panel detail skirt is designed to fit and flatter. Stylish, practical and fashionable.

Surprisingly fashionable & flattering
Date:5 December 2011
Being young at heart I would not have even considered ordering this skirt on line because the picture makes it look quite 'frumpy'; the description is wrong on two counts in that it is not 'navy mix' but black, grey, brown & creams. Also it has an elasticated waist and not a zip fastening. The pattern has a slight shimmer/shine but this is quite subtle so you could wear to work or for an evening out.
I actually saw the skirt in store and was delighted at how flattering and fashionable it looked. You could wear with tops in black, grey, brown, red or cream; boots or heels & opaques would work well which makes it very versatile. Just as a bonus it is quite a generous fit & I actually went down a size.

Long and lovely, this check print skirt makes a fashionable, flattering choice. A modern style essential.

Beautiful colours; shame about the styling
Date:3 December 2011
Spotted this skirt in a collection I would not usually go to but the colours in this skirt caught my eye (picture does not show at best). I was therefore so disappointed when trying on to find the bias cut makes the hem look as though it drops. A lovely assistant in the Tunbridge Wells store also spotted the problem and even found another skirt for me to try in case it was a fault but as this was the same we decided it is the cut that means it just doesn't hang properly so reluctantly it went back on the rack.

Smart and modern, this pencil skirt makes a fashionable, flattering choice. A great work-to-evening style.

Classic bargain
Date:27 November 2011
This is an exceptionally well priced skirt of good quality and great fit. I ordered on-line and unfortunately there was a flaw in the weave so it had to be returned but I think I shall order another as it is very good value for money and a very smart skirt.
 
Flattering and feminine, bootcuts make legs look longer and are kind to curves. This pair sits on the waist and is designed to give a shapely silhouette. Added stretch gives the perfect fit. Style also available in Plus sizes. Click <a href=\"http://www.marksandspencer.com/Plus-Cotton-Bootcut-Corduroy-Trousers/dp/B005H5C9SE\"target=\"_blank\"> here to view.

Back to basics
Date:26 October 2011
Nothing fancy; just well made, nice fit, good selection of colours and fairly priced. Excellent basic purchase from good old M & S.
 
Luxurious and sophisticated, this modern nightshirt is part of our exclusive Autograph collection. It's beautifully designed and detailed with satin finish and made from the softest fabrics for the ultimate in comfort.

Comfy sexy
Date:18 September 2011
Like another reviewer I had not appreciated this sexy looking nightshirt is a tale of two halves; silky front and teeshirt back! As someone who often sleeps face down I appreciate the buttons being standard and not the pretty pearly balls which may look nice but are extremely uncomfortable to lay on. All in all a good nightie but really I would have liked the satin look all over. I purchased in the Bluewater store which had teeshirt material 'bottoms' in the same grey displayed next to this nightshirt which might be good to team up with for winter.

Lightweight flip flop
Date:14 September 2011
Nice lightweight flip flop but unfortunately just not for me. Think I have been spoiled by original fitness type flip flops and find these are just not as comfortable.
