It may not be summer just yet, but the warmer weather is on its way, so there's no better time to get your wardrobe ready for the heat. One downside of the change in seasons can be the dreaded discomfort of chafing thighs, but thankfully Amazon has the solution - and for under £20.

Amazon's anti-chafing shorts from Amazon sit comfortably under your clothes to prevent chafing, as well as acting as shapewear to smooth out lumps and bumps. The shorts are available in various colours, and for just £15.99, they're a total gamechanger for comfortably wearing skirts and shorts this summer.
