While it may still be cold outside, Marks & Spencer is here to put a little sunshine back in our lives with its upcoming Spring/Summer collection — and let me tell you, we're in for a real treat. While the retailer might generally be a go-to for sensible bras [1], tights, or chocolate doughnuts, it's recently made a big impact on the fashion scene [2], and I'm excited to see that it was only the beginning.

When I first saw the images for the SS18 collection, my immediate reaction was "Wow." And the more I look at them, the more I am falling in love with the different pieces. Taking inspiration from the biggest trends that came out of Fashion Week [3], Marks & Spencer has created a line full of modern yet romantic dresses, eye-catching prints, pretty pastels, luxe textiles, and attention-grabbing bags that'll make you excited about fashion again. Read on to get a closer look at the gorgeous collection.

And don't forget to try those chocolate doughnuts. Seriously, they're delicious.
