This high street store has the best summer dresses according to my IG feed

h&m dresses

There's a new player in town when it comes to summer dresses. Well not exactly new, just not perhaps the obvious choices when it comes to high street dresses: H&M. The chain has been coming up more and more on my feed, thanks to this season's strong offering.

H&M has simply managed to tick all the trends you could want to try, as well as the basics of course. There are floaty maxi dresses, tie dye styles, bright frocks with puff sleeves and even pastel lace midi dresses.

They have been tagged left, right and centre on my Instagram feed, with Erna from Mercer7 sporting the below minimal dress that is ideal for a heatwave, though it has since sadly sold out.

Influencer Claire Wakeman went for a sheer tie dye style number, while Lucy Alston from The Style Sponge sported a ruched strapless gown that wouldn't look out of place on a couture runway.

And if you're lucky enough to be attending a wedding anytime soon, Njay from Chic Impressions showed that a lace midi with strappy sandals is always a crowd pleaser.

Penny Goldstone is the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire, covering everything from catwalk trends to royal fashion and the latest high street and Instagram must-haves.

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.
