How many of these sell-out M&S items did you have?
Including THAT pink coat
Including THAT pink coat
We don't know about you, but we just love taking a walk down fashion memory lane - including remembering all those Zara items we bought over the years (a LOT).
And it doesn't get much more nostalgic than good old M&S, the epitome of British everything. Of course we all remember that pink duster coat of 2013, that had us constantly refreshing the site in the hope it would get re-stocked. M&S, we blame you for our RSI, by the way.
But do you remember all these other popular M&S items? Scroll down and let us know...
M&S hummingbird dress, April 2012
After Denise Van Outen wore this pretty tea dress, it sold out within two weeks.
M&S Limited Collection nude courts, September 2012
You can blame Kate Middleton (again) for this one. After the Duchess of Cambridge wore her signature L.K. Bennett ones, an M&S ad featuring similar courts aired on TV, resulting in on one pair being bought every two minutes.
M&S pink coat, September 2013
The infamous pink duster coat was the hottest high street must-have of the season and was credited with massively boosting M&S sales.

M&S suede skirt, April 2015
