The besties took to social media to show off their haul, leaving many open-mouthed.
Rebecca, who is five foot eight and in between a size 14 and 16 kicked off the clip as she explained: “We’ve been shopping at M&S and we’ve got a great summer haul with alternatives to wearing shorts.”
The pair wore the Cotton Rich Textured Midi Knitted Dress, which is £35, as Rebecca said: “Starting off with this lovely crochet dress.”
Kate, who is five foot five and a size 8, beamed: “We really love this dress, the quality is amazing.”
For the second outfit of the haul, the content creators modelled the Printed Maxi Cami Slip Dress, which has been reduced from £45 to £27.
Thrilled with the dress, Kate shared: “It’s really nice, it’s a little bit more fitted.”
Following this, Rebecca praised the “versatile” frock and added: “How gorgeous would this be on holiday?”
But the third outfit – the Cotton Blend V-Neck Midi Tiered Dress – left the M&S fans slightly divided.
Whilst Rebecca wasn’t totally convinced by the £39.50 dress and confessed: “It’s not my favourite”, Kate then added: “I really like the sleeves.”
And if you’re looking for a new skirt for summer, you’ll need to move fast, as the fashionistas praised the M&S Pure Cotton Crinkle Midaxi Skirt, which has been slashed from £35 to £22.
Thrilled with the bargain buy, Rebecca explained: “I absolutely love this outfit.”
The influencer praised the “gorgeous” high-street find as she added: “Lightweight quality, super comfy.
“Such a lovely outfit that you can dress up and down.”
FASHION FANS REACT
The Instagram clip, which was posted under @_fashionablykate and @stylingwithrebecca, has clearly impressed many, as it has quickly racked up 42,500 views.
Fashion fans were open-mouthed with the gorgeous M&S buys and many were keen to express this in the comments.
Why Everyone Is Loving M&S
Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale revealed to Fabulous why M&S is the shop of the moment. She explained:
“M&S has really pulled it out of the bag this season, there is so much good product to be excited about.
“A brand once known for its ‘frumpy fashion’ that notion is long gone with it now being one of the leading high street stores for womenswear.
“Its handbag range in particular is super strong with them selling 170% vs plan, with lots more designer dupes for just a fraction of the price.
“The brand is now also the #1 for style perceptions, compared to the #3 spot it had last year, this comes from a really strong design team focused on modernising the brand, not only taking into consideration how the pieces look, but how easy they are to wear also.
“Price is also a big factor with you being able to get many good quality pieces all for under £30.
“After having a sneak peak of the upcoming collection there are so many more amazing pieces that are dropping over the next few months to keep your eyes on.
“Think leopard print dresses, colourful co-ords, embroidered boho jackets, plus lots of swimwear and amazing accessories, as well as great wardrobe staples that will last year on year.”
One person said: “Gorgeous, I need to go shopping!
“I feel like the burgundy ombre dress would work so well for Autumn too!”
