Marks and Spencer has launched a range of clothes and accessories in the ‘colour of the season’. Here’s what we think of the autumnal pieces on shop shelves
Marks and Spencer, the high street retail giant, is making waves with its latest ‘colour of the season’ launch for clothing, setting a trend that’s been eagerly picked up by other retailers such as New Look, who are also showcasing a range of items in this vibrant, autumnal hue.
The colour in question? A deep, dark red known as ‘oxblood’, which is absolutely spot on for nailing that chic autumn vibe. Keen to see what M&S has on offer, I’ve had a good rummage through their website and picked out five fab finds in this stunning shade.
Whether you’re after bags, jumpers, or shoes, there’s a treasure trove of choices in this lovely colour. Here’s the scoop on what I’ve discovered.
Satin Printed Pleated Tie Neck Blouse – £39.20
Over on the Marks and Spencer site, they describe this eye-catcher as: “This striking blouse from our Per Una collection is crafted from satin for a luxurious feel. It’s cut in a regular fit and features feminine blouson sleeves with shirred cuffs for extra volume. A slim tie lets you fasten the frilled neckline with an elegant bow, reports the Liverpool Echo. The fabric is printed with an eye-catching design, while pleats on the front give added texture. Per Una: stylish designs crafted with carefully considered details and feminine flourishes.”
