Fresh drop, but high in demand, already; these M&S Pure Cotton Striped Wide Leg Trousers are at the top of our shopping carts this week. Whether on your well-dressed holibobs or swanning into the office to be everybody's favourite personality hire, these striped trousers will have you feel uh-mazing. Well, they're super smart, for one - and we can see them being paired with pretty much anything. Why are they selling out, you ask? Stripes are universally flattering, can be worn year-round and have a classic appeal to many.

With its trendy high waist, comfy wide leg silhouette, side pockets and button/zip fastening, these trousers are nothing short of functional (not to mention stylish). As for the fabric, it is made from 100% cotton, so expect this fresh pinstripe pair to be breathable and easy to wash. Even better, M&S is stocking them in a wide range of sizes, as well as short, regular, long and extra-long leg fits. It's rare to find a high-street retailer determined to make its fashion inclusive for a better fit. It's a major plus for us.

Good price, even better quality. Everyone's adding it to their carts.

Some styling inspiration will help you see our vision, we're sure. When the weather is having a good moment, a summer's day will probably be eased by a lightweight, linen top and some sliders. Super casual, super lightweight. No chance of overheating, there. Whereas, in the office, the pinstripe trousers would look super professional with kitten heels and a blouse. Or, if you're looking to style for a bit of edge during your evenings, why not add a structured blazer and mules? It has the potential to be glamorous.

These trousers are a great separate for transitional fashion. It can be paired with lightweight tops and sneakers, and layered up with cropped knits and boots for breezy season bridging. What do you think?

Not only are wide-leg trousers on trend, but they actually allow you some freedom of movement. Of course, we have to mention how flattering a wide leg can be, thanks to the way it can elongate the legs and create a balance to your overall look. Combine this with the ageless appeal of pinstripes, and you're onto a winner, especially if you're looking to create a wardrobe that feels minimalistic yet timeless.

It's no wonder that M&S customers sell out their trousers, time and time again. All the more reason to hop on the pinstripe trend and add to your basket, before the stock will inevitably become limited. Trendy and timeless meet tailored. Enjoy these trousers you'll wear now, next season and next year.
