A plus-size fashionista, known online as ‘Shapes and Shadows’, took to social media to show off her new purchase – the Ponte Utility Wide Leg Pants from M&S.
The body-positive Irish content creator was thrilled with the pants, which cost just £35.
While holding her online order from M&S, she said: “I’ve been on the hunt for plus size cargo pants for a long time – I’ve just found a pair in M&S, let’s try them on together.”
The fashion fan then paired the black pants with a black and white striped t-shirt and a pair of Adidas sneakers.
The brunette beauty described the high street purchase as “super, super comfortable”, adding: “I really like them.
“I didn’t think I would do it because I kind of have a long body and long legs, so I didn’t think I would get away with them, but I really like them.
“They are adorable. Really Cool material. I’m a size 22, they’re true to size, elastic waistband, pockets on each side and cargo pockets on each side too.
These pants feature utility-inspired details and are perfect for effortless everyday and evening style.
They have a wide-leg design, featuring a high-waisted elastic waistband with drawstrings.
Made with added stretch for comfort, these pants are finished with ribbing for a stylish look.
They are available in three different colors – black, gray and navy.
There are three leg options to choose from – short/small, regular and long.
Sizes range from 6 to 24, making these pants perfect for a variety of different body shapes, but they’re selling out quickly, so you’ll need to move quickly if you want to snag them.
Why everyone is loving M&S
Deputy fashion editor Abby McHale revealed to Fabulous why M&S is the store of the moment. She explained:
“M&S has really pulled out all the stops this season, there are so many great products to get excited about.
“A brand that was once known for its ‘slouchy fashion’, that notion is long gone and is now one of the leading women’s high street fashion stores.
“Their handbag line in particular is super strong, with sales up 170% over plan, with many more naïve designers at just a fraction of the price.
“The brand is now also number 1 in style perception, compared to third place last year, this comes from a very strong design team focused on modernizing the brand, not just taking into account the appearance of parts, but as easy to use as well.
“Price is also an important factor as you can get many good quality pieces for under £30.
“After giving you a sneak peek at the upcoming collection, there are plenty of other amazing pieces releasing in the coming months for you to keep an eye on.
“Think leopard print dresses, colorful slips, embroidered boho jackets, plus lots of amazing swimwear and accessories, as well as great wardrobe staples that will last year after year.”

Hottest trends for spring/summer 2024
Fabulous fashion editor Clemmie Fieldsend shared the biggest trends on the high street and runway this spring/summer.
SHORTS
I know, shorts for the summer. Innovative. But you’ll see them everywhere this year, from micro hotpants to long pants, denim shorts styles to tailoring and everything in between, they’re a must-have for any occasion.
WHITE
White often goes hand in hand with summer holidays, but whether you’re in the UK or abroad, you’ll see plenty of head-to-toe white looks.
The street is already a white wash with the trend including shoes and accessories.
HIGH SHINE
Whether metallic or sequins, for 2024 glitter isn’t just for Christmas.
Expect to see shimmery looks at festivals, weddings, or even a barbecue in your neighbor’s back garden, paired with bright blocks or simple whites.
LOOSE FUNDS
Baggy, baggy pants dominated our wardrobes from fall through winter, but as we head into the warmer months, expect baggy pants.
From cool cotton to lightweight linen, flowy pants should have a firm place in your wardrobe.
BOMBS
Ballet flats and Mary Janes have been making their way back into our good books for a while now, but for summer they feel less ballerina and more beach-ready.
Woven styles and knitted textures are hot on the runways and streets, think of the 2024 jelly shoe.
GO GIRL
All things romantic and feminine are in for spring with sheer fabrics, pastel shades of blue, yellow and pink dominating the runway. Adorned with bows, lace or flowers, most looks should have a hyper ‘feminine’ element.
BUYERS’ DELUSIONS
Additionally, shoppers have taken to the M&S website to share their reviews of the trousers – which have an average rating of 4.6 out of five, with almost 400 five-star reviews.
One fashionista beamed: “Fantastic – super comfortable, great fit (not tight in the pockets/hips like most M&S pants!) and looks almost tailored.
They are so comfortable and you can enhance or shorten them
Online buyer
“I’m 5’7″ and needed the long length – so I’m not sure they would work for taller women. Please do this again M&S!”
A second praised the “best pants in years!” and explained: “I love these pants – I have three pairs now.
“Great fit and washes well (no ironing necessary).”
While someone else wrote: “These jersey cargo pants are AMAZING!!! The fit is true to size and the style is very flattering.
“They are so comfortable and you can make them bigger or smaller. Easy to wash and doesn’t fade, I recommend it.”
