Why M&S dominates the high-street
By Abby McHale, Deputy Fashion Editor
The past few years have seen big changes for Marks & Spencer.
A store that was once seen as somewhere that your granny shops for her cashmere before heading into the cafe for some lunch, it’s now one of the most popular stores on the high street.
After Maddy Evans formerly of Topshop became womenswear director in 2022 the brand has catapulted into a destination known as much for its fashion as its food.
Thanks to clever designs from Maddy and her team which at the heart still factor in comfort, functionality and wearability have created a range that cater to all generations.
The Gen Z Tik Tok generation have given the brand some viral sell outs and yet there are still plenty of options in there for the midlife ladies.
Plus the brand is getting even more exposure over the next six weeks, with a spot on prime time tv for its new ‘Dress The Nation’ show, seeking out its next big designer.
Presented by Vernon Kay and AJ Odudu, the show also features a whole range of celebrities including Mel B and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley.
The brand has really tapped into what its customers want, creating stylish pieces, at a good price point, that can be worn for seasons to come.

Why you need to head to the supermarket to snap up fashion finds
By Abby McHale, Deputy Fashion Editor
These days there is more than going to the supermarket just for food.
Many of them now offer a great selection of clothing for all the family at a really affordable price.
Not only do they tap into the trends, meaning that you can stay stylish on a budget, but they also provide some key pieces that will stay in your wardrobe for years to come.
Thanks to those on Tik Tok many of the pieces now go viral thanks to the affordable price points, so you often need to hurry fast to make sure you’re getting the pieces that are top of your wish list.
There aren’t really many other places that offer what supermarket clothing can give you.
Plus they don’t waver on quality.
With jeans for £20, trench coats for £40 and a whole range of accessories and lingerie they have definitely become a destination for fashion.
A lot of these supermarkets also host other brands as well, meaning you’re getting even more choice.
