M&S’ Must-Have Summer Holiday Dresses
Fashion enthusiasts are flocking to M&S, eager to snag their hands on what many are calling the ‘comfiest flip flops ever’. With the temperatures finally rising, if you’re in search of stylish footwear that will keep you looking fabulous on those sunny days, you’ve come to the right place. Fashion lovers are buzzing about a new pair of flip flops from M&S that are particularly great for those with wide feet. Not only are they trendy and comfortable, but they are also incredibly affordable.
The shoes, which are marketed online as slippers, come with a price tag of only £17.50. Roxanne Hoare, a UGC content creator from the UK, showcased her new shoes on social media, and shoppers are going wild for them. The Leopard Print Slider Slippers are now available both online and in stores, and they’re perfect for individuals with wider feet. According to many shoppers, these flip flops have a nostalgic 90s vibe.
These eye-catching M&S slippers make for a fantastic and contemporary addition to your loungewear, and they are also ideal for running errands during the summer. Thanks to their easy slip-on design and convenient slider shape, they provide exceptional comfort. The all-over leopard print pattern adds a trendy flair, ensuring they will turn heads wherever you go.
Roxanne was particularly impressed with these stylish shoes and took to TikTok to share her enthusiastic review, leaving many viewers awestruck. As she held up the flip flops, Roxanne exclaimed: “I just bought these from M&S today, and I had to show you immediately! They are the comfiest flip flops ever. They’re categorized as slippers on the website, but I’m definitely going to wear them as flip flops. They’re so cushioned, unbelievably comfy, and they were £17.50, which is incredible!”
In her outfit, Roxanne paired the flip flops with COS barrel jeans and a simple white top, stating: “They’re honestly so cute.” She then urged M&S shoppers to “run to M&S right now for these.”
Why Everyone Is Loving M&S
Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale shared with Fabulous why M&S is currently the go-to shop. She explained: “M&S has really stepped up its game this season; there’s so much to be excited about. A brand once labeled as ‘frumpy fashion’ has shed that reputation and is now recognized as one of the leading high street stores for womenswear. Their handbag range, in particular, is exceptionally strong, with sales exceeding 170% of the planned figures, thanks to numerous designer-inspired pieces available at a fraction of the cost.
“The brand is now ranked #1 for style perceptions, a significant leap from the #3 position it held last year. This shift is a result of a dedicated design team focused on modernizing the brand, taking into account not only the aesthetics of the pieces but also their wearability. Price is also a crucial factor, as many quality items can be found for under £30. After catching a glimpse of the upcoming collection, I can assure you there are numerous amazing pieces set to be released in the next few months. Expect to see leopard print dresses, colorful co-ords, embroidered boho jackets, a variety of swimwear, and fantastic accessories, along with essential wardrobe staples that will stand the test of time.”
However, if you’re keen on these trendy shoes, you’d better act fast, as they are flying off the shelves.

Hottest Fashion Trends of 2025
Fabulous’ Fashion Editor Clemmie Fieldsend shares the biggest must-have trends from the high street.
- The East/West Bag: Baguette bags have enjoyed their moment in the spotlight, but in 2025, the East/West bag—an elongated shape with long, thin straps—will take center stage. This style has been spotted on runway models at nearly every major designer show, including Burberry and Givenchy, and is now making its way to the high street.
- Powder Pink: Bright fuchsia pink had its moment thanks to the Barbie movie in 2023, but in 2025, the softer, more refined shade of powder pink is set to dominate. While Pantone may declare it the year of Mocha Mousse, the catwalks tell a different story! Designers like Prada and Erdem showcased this elegant hue, making it suitable for head-to-toe looks or paired with sharp tailoring for an androgynous twist.
- The Shell Jacket: The ’80s classic is making a comeback, now featuring a sleek and minimal design. With spring showers likely, a cagoule jacket is a smart choice. Retro sportswear is trending, with a notable resurgence of ‘80s windbreakers as seen in stylish cities like Copenhagen and on Miu Miu’s runway.
- The Turn-Up Jeans: While the shape of jeans remains consistent, the styling is evolving. This season, transform your wide-leg, baggy jeans into turn-ups. Whether you opt for deep cuffs or a slight fold, this look is a hit, especially with brands like Citizens of Humanity leading the trend.
- Peep-Toe Shoes: Get your pedicures ready, as peep-toe shoes are back in style! After years of being sidelined, they’re making a grand return, with brands like Hermes and Miu Miu showcasing a variety of styles, from mules to pumps and even clogs.
- Sheer Blouses: The trend for see-through fabrics is making its way into everyday fashion. Designers like Ralph Lauren and Tom Ford embraced sheer looks in their S/S ’25 collections, and M&S enjoyed sellout success with its sheer pencil skirt last season. Expect to see more sheer designs in high street shops.
Many viewers expressed their nostalgia for the flip flops, with one commenter saying, “Oh my word, my mum used to walk around in these in the ‘90s. They look amazing!” Another simply remarked, “Immediately influenced.” Meanwhile, one fashion enthusiast asked, “Do you think they’d fit wide feet?” and Roxanne reassured them, “100%.”
