If you’d told me ten years ago that I’d be checking M&S’s new-in section on a weekly basis, I wouldn’t have believed you. The brand’s reinvention is hardly new at this point, but what is surprising is just how consistently good it continues to be.
Every time I scroll through the latest arrivals, there’s something worth noting; from the now-viral spring jackets to petite-friendly staples that genuinely deliver on fit, it’s become one of those rare high-street destinations where you can reliably find pieces that feel both current and timeless.
Monikh wearing M&S Cotton Jacket and Linen Trousers
What M&S does particularly well is take everyday basics and elevate them in subtle, thoughtful ways. The jackets are a perfect example: clean silhouettes, softly structured shapes and small design details, a funnel neck here, a refined print there that make them feel far more polished than your average throw-on layer. The same applies to blouses and dresses, where understated touches like embroidery or gentle ruching give otherwise simple pieces a more elevated finish.
Jeans, too, are a consistent strength. From classic straight-leg and wide-leg styles in soft spring shades to more directional barrel cuts, the offering is both comprehensive and easy to wear. And then there’s the footwear. Loafers, ballet flats, sandals, all familiar silhouettes, but with just enough refinement to make them feel considered rather than basic. It’s this ability to subtly elevate the everyday that sets M&S apart right now.
Below, I’ve pulled together the chicest M&S spring pieces worth adding to your wardrobe.
