It's finally launched

Remember a little while back when I told out about the M&S dress that got so much hype before it even launched (which was great news if you missed out on the M&S constellation dress). Well, sharpen your elbows, because it's finally launched.

The striped wraparound dress was previewed on M&S's Instagram account two months ago and quickly garnered over 5k likes and comments.

Users were eager to know when the dress launches (coming soon FYI), because they 'need it in my life', while others commented on the pockets and general gorgeousness of it.

And tbh I can see why. The midi style is super flattering thanks to a tie waist and balloon sleeves, and it's perfect day dress for both work and the weekends.

For work, wear it with a chic kitten heels, and swap for heeled wedges or espadrilles for a more casual vibe.

In the lookbook shot, it was styled with a cute basket bag which should launch soon too, and I've got a feeling it's going to sell out, so be quick.

Hurry though, it's selling out fast!

Penny grew up in France and studied languages and law at the Sorbonne Nouvelle University in Paris before moving to the UK for her MA in multimedia journalism at Bournemouth University. She moved to the UK permanently and has never looked back (though she does go back regularly to stock up on cheese and wine).

Although she's always loved fashion - she used to create scrapbooks of her favourite trends and looks, including Sienna Miller and Kate Moss' boho phase - her first job was at MoneySavingExpert.com, sourcing the best deals for everything from restaurants to designer sales.

However she quit after two years to follow her true passion, fashion journalism, and after many years of internships and freelance stints at magazines including Red, Cosmopolitan, Stylist and Good Housekeeping, landed her dream job as the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire UK.

Her favourite part of the job is discovering new brands and meeting designers, and travelling the world to attend events and fashion shows. Seeing her first Chanel runway IRL at Paris Fashion Week was a true pinch-me moment.
