Fashion fans eagerly awaiting the sun to return hopefully don't have long left to wait. With the start of summer officially less than three weeks away, with any luck we will soon be basking in the warm weather once again.

If last week's heatwave was a reminder that you need to pick up some more summer clothes, it's worth heading over to Roman. The high-street retailer has plenty of budget-friendly options that are suitable for wearing both here in the UK and on holiday abroad.

The Blue Stripe Tie Waist Pocket Trousers are proving to be a popular choice among online shoppers and it is not hard to see why. They cost £30 but new customers who use our exclusive discount code 'AFRPLC25Q226' can bag them for £22.50, offering £25% off.

Likewise, existing Roman shoppers can apply the promotional voucher 'COOL' at the checkout to score the trousers with 10% off, bringing the price down to £27. The shop is also offering free express delivery on the trousers, with the aim of getting them to shoppers' doors within two days of ordering.

The Blue Stripe Tie Waist Pocket Trousers come in sizes 10 to 20, all of which are still in stock online. Crafted from a woven fabric, the pull-on style feature a comfortable elasticated waistband that makes them suitable for even the most bloated of tummies.

A more stylish take on classic linen trousers, the blue and white stripe pair can be worn to work and on the weekends. They are finished off with angled side pockets and a tie detail on the waist that can cinched for a flattering git or worn loose depending on the desired fit.

Thanks to their versatile design, the trousers can be worn with so many pieces already found in a wardrobe. Style with a white vest for a classic ensemble or pair with a blouse or a graphic T-shirt for a casual yet sophisticated outfit.

Elsewhere, Marks and Spencer's Linen Rich Drawstring Wide Leg Trousers are priced at £28. Available in six colours including black, white and navy, the trousers come in sizes six to 24 in extra short. short/petite, regular and long lengths.

Made from a linen-rich fabric, the trousers feature a comfy high, elasticated waist and a drawstring fastening to ensure a custom fit. The airy, wide-leg pair is finished with two side slip pockets for a practical touch.

Alternatively, New Look's Green Striped Seersucker Wide Leg Trousers retail for £29.99. Designed to be a go-to for vibrant looks, the green high-waisted trousers boast drawstring ties and extend into relaxed wide legs.

Back at Roman, the Blue Stripe Tie Waist Pocket Trousers has racked up an overall star-rating of 4.8 out of five based on five reviews. One satisfied shopper said: "Lovely trousers. ready for my holidays next week and quick delivery. Many Thanks."

A second wrote: "Lovely these trousers, i have all three colours they are so comfortable and easy to wear. Legs not too wide and nice material."

"These trousers are perfect," a third penned. "True to size and very flattering. The fabric hangs beautifully."

While the Blue Stripe Tie Waist Pocket Trousers do not have any negative reviews, one shopper docked them a star because the leg was 'too long'. They mentioned: "Nice material, good quality but a little too long in the leg."

The trousers do not come with the option of choosing your prefered leg inseam, which is something to bear in mind. They're also crafted from a polyester and viscose fabric, so those who'd prefer an option made from natural fibres like linen or cotton will want to shy away from this option.

Nevertheless, someone else loved their latest Roman purchase, adding: "These are lovely and light for the summer evenings. Really comfortable."
