We've all been there when we're enjoying a day out in the glorious sunshine and all of a sudden the heavens open. Thankfully, Marks and Spencer is selling the perfect 'lightweight' raincoat that you can roll up in your bag and quickly pop on when a summer shower arrives.

The Stormwear Funnel Neck Longline Raincoat is a relaxed fit and provides ultimate protection on wet days thanks to its long length. It's available in black and beige and comes in sizes extra small to extra large. 

The M&S coat costs £79 and is made with Stormwear technology that offers a water-repellent finish to keep you dry. The raincoat has a zip fastening that runs from the bottom of the garment right to the top of the collar, offering a neat look that also ensures no pesky rain water will get in.

The coat has two large angled patch pockets to ensure your phone, purse and other essentials that you want to keep close by stay nice and dry. The raincoat is part of the M&S Collection - a variety of easy-to-wear wardrobe staples that combine classic and contemporary styles.

Marks and Spencer's Stormwear Funnel Neck Longline Raincoat has an impressive five star rating. One delighted shopper said: "Fabulous, so classic, ticks all the boxes. Reasonably lightweight, ideal for this showery weather. True to size. I usually take a 14 in coats and jackets, bought medium and it fits perfectly."

A second commented: "This is a really gorgeous coat. It fits well and has a lovely weight to it. It will be perfect for the windy, rainy weather we get here."
