A timeless classic, the polka-dot print adds a bit of elegance to any summer look. Good Morning Britain’s Kate Garraway recently showed fashion fans an easy way to rock the pattern this season.

The TV presenter was pictured wearing Boden’s Mila Top, which features a navy polka-dot print against an ivory fabric, and LK Bennett’s Elsie Trousers – showcasing white spots on a cream background. To finish the look, she added a pair of gold-coloured platform sandals.

Kate’s Boden Mila top is a new season style at £42, but fans can get 15% off and purchase it at £35.70, meanwhile the  LK Bennett Elsie Trousers are reduced to £159.20 (was £199) in a site-wide 20% off sale.

The Boden Mila top features flutter sleeves and is made from lightweight cotton that works well for the summer months.

In a glowing review, one shopper said: “This is a lovely top – can look smart or casual depending what you wear it with. Really good quality cotton and well made.” And a second echoed: “Beautiful soft cotton T-shirt made of very high quality. I go between size 14 and 16 in other brands. Size 14 fit perfectly. I would buy this in every colour.”

But a shopper mentioned the ‘shoulders did not flatter’, explaining: “I am narrow shouldered and this top made me look bulky and top heavy. It’s a shame as the fabric was perfect for the summer.”

The polka dot print top is fast selling online however there are other options elsewhere such as Next’s Black/White Spot Sheer Short Sleeve Smock Top, £32, which is crafted from airy, lightweight chiffon-like fabric.

The Roman Ivory Textured Spot Stretch Top is on sale, currently reduced from £26 to £10. The hip-length T-shirt features a contrasting banding on the neck for a chic touch.

Moving on to Kate’s trousers, the Elsie trousers are crafted from a navy satin crepe blend with viscose, and adorned with polka dots in cream. They come in a fit-and-flare style that is perfect for smart casual settings. Shoppers can pair it with the Boden top just like Kate, or get a more refined look by styling it with a tailored blazer. 

Elsewhere, shoppers can consider the New Look Black Spot Print Wide Leg Trousers. Retailing at £29.99, these feature a contrasting white spot print and two practical side pockets.

Debenhams has slashed the price of a watch that shoppers are calling “sophisticated” and “pure luxury.” The GV2 Bari Diamond  Watch is now available with a staggering 97% discount. According to Debenhams, it was originally priced at £5,495 but has been marked down to just £183.75.

According to the online retailer, this timepiece boasts a “sophisticated rectangular mother-of-pearl dial” adorned with “eighteen glittering diamond indices.” And comes complete with a “beautiful pumpkin crown” and a “diamond-cut bezel case.” 

For those in search of a similar style, watch for personal indulgence or as a gift, there are other options to consider. The GV2 Padova Women’s Watch is on offer at Secret Sales for £192.50, which is 93% off its regular price, reports The Mirror. 

Alternatively, Argos has the Sekonda Monica Women Two Tone Bracelet Watch for £64.99, and ASOS offers a silver version for £59.99.

A delighted Debenhams customer praised the discounted GV2 Bari Diamond Watch, exclaiming: “Pure luxury in a fantastic presentation box! Lovely in every aspect was so excited to open and even more excited to wear! It has really good weight to it and face is easy to read to tell exact time. Had several compliments on wearing.”

A second enthused: “I absolutely love the watch, high quality, gorgeous finish.”

A third commented: “This watch is beautifully made and although nothing like the proposed price I consider it a really attractive timepiece and certainly very pretty.”

Another was pleasantly surprised: “Really nice watch for the money and can’t believe how good it is.”

A fourth shared their delight: “I’m in love with this watch, from the dial to the strap. The watch strap is so easy to use as it’s a double fastening. Looks very good on. Thought I’d treat myself and was very pleased when it arrived. Comes in a very smart box with a certificate for the diamonds.”

Some customers mentioned the need to adjust the strap for a better fit. One customer remarked: “Love the watch looks lovely on really pleased with it had to have a few links taken out of the bracelet as I’ve got skinny wrists but it’s perfect.”

Another noted: “My wife loves it [but] had to have one link taken out.”

However, not all feedback was glowing, with one critic pointing out: “Nice watch but too thick and feels heavy on.”

someone else added: “Very nice watch but extremely heavy and large bracelet. Had it adjusted by a jeweller.”

Nonetheless, the majority of reviews were glowing. One satisfied customer stated: “Really nice watch, purchased for my wife and she loved it, comes with a warranty card and precious jewel card for authenticity.”

Another enthused: “Received on time, a remarkable piece of jewellery, real quality through and through.”

Ruth Langsford has been sharing her must-have skincare products to social media and one item that she loves to use on repeat is these Jelly Eye Patches from Nip+Fab.

Formulated to plump and rehydrate under-eyes, the patches work to revive tired, puffy skin in just 15 minutes, and they’re great to use before a special event. Currently on offer at Amazon, a box of 20 pairs is now reduced to £15.96 from £19.95.

The Nip+Fab Jelly Patches are formulated with hyaluronic acid to hydrate skin and reduce dryness instantly, tremella (also known as snow mushroom) to tackle fine lines and wrinkles, and polyglutamic acid which holds four times more water than hyaluronic acid.

Elsewhere on Charlotte Tilbury, the Hollywood Skin Secrets Immediate Eye Revival Patches, £58, are packed with Bio-Smooth Eye Contour Complex to depuff and hydrate under-eyes in 10 minutes.

ESPA Isotonic Hydra Gel Eye Masks are formulated with minerals, antioxidants and natural extracts that help plump, brighten, and soothe tired eyes. Shoppers can get them at Next, where they cost £36.50.

Ruth explained that the jelly patches made her fall in love with Nip+Fab and she has even partnered with the brand to test out other products. In a recent post on Instagram, she said: “I just want to talk to you about this Nip+Fab, I was introduced to this brand by my make-up artist who’s using this on me. It’s lovely, hydrating jelly eye patches that you might have seen me, on Instagram, the bright green ones under my eyes.”

The jelly patches have also gained approval from shoppers on Amazon, earning them an overall 4.4 out of five average star-rating. One said: “I have super sensitive eyes and wear contact lenses and these don’t cause any irritation or stinging, even if very close to the waterline.”

A second shared her tip: “I pop these right at the back of my fridge so they are extra cold, once on they stay cold for at least 20 plus minutes they are also thick but not too thick unlike others I’ve used are really thin and slip off, my eyes feel refreshed after using these.”

However, one questioned the efficacy of the patches and penned: “Still early days they seem to leave my under eye feeling smooth, however I could only really lie down when applied as they just slide down your face, which if you’re busy and multi-tasking, it isn’t great.”

Another said the masks aren’t ‘particularly hydrating’ and ‘slide significantly’. But someone else added: “Love these eye patches. Really hydrating for under eye skin and smoothes out those fine lines.”
