Ruth Langsford stuns in sequin M&S dress for her final Friday appearance on This Morning

It might be the season of joy, but today was an emotional one for Ruth Langsford and Eamon Holmes as they presented Friday’s episode of This Morning for the very last time. In a controversial move, their slot is being taken up by Alison Hammond (opens in new tab) and Dermot O’Leary in the new year.

But despite the drama, Ruth (opens in new tab) more than looked the part in a shimmering gold sequin dress. Available now at M&S for just £41.30 (was £59) (opens in new tab) it features a deep V neckline, floaty sleeves and a swishy hemline. Just the kind of dress we need for sashaying our way around the living room. The fabric is super stretchy too - perfect for sneaking in an extra mince pie.

Sizes are selling out fast though in both regular and long, so you really will need to move fast (or join the waiting list) to avoid missing out. 

Just in case you’re not quite speedy enough (it really is flying off the virtual shelves!) we’ve rounded up the very best of all of M&S’ sequin pieces for your browsing pleasure. There are some real bargains to be had too, as M&S have slashed the prices of selected pieces ahead of the Boxing Day sales (opens in new tab). 

You’ve got until 6pm on Wednesday 23rd December to get your next day delivery orders in, so there’s plenty of time to upgrade your outfit ahead of the big day. 

Happy shopping! 

Best M&S sequin pieces to shop now 

Christmas parties might be going virtual, but that doesn't mean you can't still look and feel fabulous from home. This sequin number is ticking all our boxes. 

Autograph is one of M&S' more premium collections, and the feel and weight of this gorgeous sequin skirt is reflected in the higher price tag. We'll be wearing ours with black jeans and a slick of red lipstick. 

Easy to dress up or down, this sequin midi will look just as good with a Christmas jumper and fluffy slippers as it will with a silky cami and strappy heels. 

We thought this dress was a steal at the original price of £45, but at £31.50 we can hardly believe our luck. The classic shift shape will never date. 

What could be prettier than a feminine pleated midi skirt? One that's covered in sequins, that's what. The gorgeous copper shade really catches the light. 

Taking the classic t-shirt and giving it a festive refresh, we love the combination of laid-back shape and eye-catching sequins. Wide sleeves and a crew neck keep it comfy.
