Marks and Spencer has finally reopened its website to online shoppers and it couldn't have come sooner. The retailer paused digital sales after a cyber attack by hackers over Easter weekend and it has been over six weeks of not being able to order online.

With temperatures set to pick back up from Wednesday and a heatwave predicted for parts of the country, there's no time like the present to pick up some new pieces to wear during the weather. Sifting through the website and finding the very best pieces to shop can be a tall task.

Fortunately, you don't have to. I've gone through and picked out some of the pieces I'll be buying now that M&S is back. Keep on reading for my top picks or click here to shop the website directly.
