There's something really brilliant about finding a staple that nails the key trend of the season. But what if you found a piece that nailed three all at once? Seems too good to be true. Well, there's a particular piece from M&S (no surprise there) that has combined three key trends in one chic blouse. The best part? It'll only set you back £36.
The V Neck Shirred Button Through Blouse is proof that you don't need an expensive budget to tap into summer 2026's biggest fashion trends. First, there's its vibrant orange hue, tapping into the citrus trend. From zesty lime to bold mandarin, tangy shades have become one of the season's standout colour trends, adding a lift to even the simplest outfit.

Then there's the peplum hemline, a style from the early 2010s that has been reimagined for 2026. Rather than the structured silhouettes of years gone by, today's style feels softer and more romantic, with a touch of boho charm that Sienna Miller would approve of.
Speaking of bohemian charm, M&S's blouse embraces the ongoing revival through delicate tie detailing for added femininity. Not only that, but its puffed sleeves and shirred detailing are great if you're looking for something slightly free spirited.
Style with '70s-inspired jeans (think flares, for example) now that the heatwave has cooled off. But if you plan on wearing it when the weather turns scorching again, consider pairing it with a swishy skirt that will keep you cool and comfortable.
