Not just trendy, as they feature a flat sole that reviews have suggested is "very comfortable" when worn all day. The stylish wide strap across the foot and open-toe design make these mules look much more expensive than the humble £35 price-tag.

In fact, they boast a very similar design to the Oran Sandal from luxury French firm Hermès. Retailing at a staggering £610, M&S' budget-friendly mules will allow shoppers to nab a similar stylish pair for an incredible £575 less.

To encourage its customers not to miss out on the fashionable 'dupe', M&S' Wolstanton branch took to TikTok to share: "Girls run to M&S for Hermes inspired sandals!!!"

Loved by other shoppers on the video sharing platform app, it's no surprise the Flat Mules have earned a "selling fast" status online. As of writing, they are still available in sizes three to eight across three colours - tan, ivory and light blue.

It's not just social media that loves the £35 sandals, as they have amassed an impressive 4.6 rating on the M&S website, as shoppers who say they are a "summer must-have" will be taken on holiday this year.

One five-star review read: "These sliders are so comfortable and look very similar to some available at hundreds of pounds more expensive."

A similar review echoed: "I ordered these in tan, which goes with everything. They are true to size (7) and are very comfortable. They are a little pricey, but look like expensive designer sandals. Pleased with my purchase and will definitely be taking them on holiday this summer."

Another M&S shopper added: " Stylish! Summer must-have. Beautiful and comfortable! Not too narrow, I purchased the brown/tan option."

Someone else gushed: "Colour is beautiful. Very stylish and looking forward to wearing them in the summer."

It is worth mentioning that a few reviews have advised that the Flat Mules can come up a little small. One such customer wrote: "Really small fit. I am a size 5 so I ordered a 5 and a 6, both are too small, so you need to go up a couple of sizes."
