The mega supermarket has long been a firm favourite amongst cash-savvy fashion fans – and their latest collection is no exception.

Whether you’re on the lookout for on-trend leopard print or bloat-friendly frocks, Tesco has it all – and prices start from just £6.

One person who was recently left amazed by the latest buys is Chloe Warfield – who also shared some of her top buys on TikTok.

The size 14 modelled numerous eye-catching items, from a stunning bright fuchsia maxi dress to trendy shorts.

The vibrant dress, priced at an affordable £25, features puff sleeve detailing, as well as a belt that cinches at your waist.

The best part? In the video, Chloe also discovered the summery frock comes with pockets – it really doesn’t get any better than this.

Another buy the shopper got her hands on were shorts with the viral leopard print that’s not going out of fashion anytime soon.

Chloe snapped up the £18 shorts in size 14 and teamed it with a basic white T-shirt, £6 – another must-have wardrobe staple.

To make the fit stand out even more, the stylish TikToker completed the casual ensemble with a pair of tinted aviator sunnies, sandals, a black belt and a purse.

It seems like it’s certainly worth visiting Tesco if you’re short on dresses or have a wedding to attend – as the mega retailer has a huge variety of stunning dresses to bag.

One of these is a frilled maxi dress in vibrant blue for an affordable £36 – it has a flattering V-neckline, as well as a cut at the bottom of the dress that allows you to move freely and without discomfort.

The winner of a haul also included fun stripy pyjama-style shorts going for just £12.50 – perfect for heading to the beach or chilling in your garden.

Other jaw-dropping dress options included a flowy midi dress in light grey for £32.50, a strappy black maxi dress with frill detailing throughout, £29.50, as well as a sleeveless gown in neutral shades for a wallet-friendly £19.50.

Posing with chic sunnies and heeled sandals, Chloe looked incredible – and was delighted to see that this dress too came with side pockets.

Praising the brand, the shopper wrote in the caption: ”Ummmm hello TESCO you superstar – thanks for providing this pink dress, leopard shorts & the last dress is just sensational!

”All bought today so will all be fresh in stores for you!” the fashionista wrote in the caption.

‘I’m gonna have to run to Tesco’

The new range has clearly impressed many, as the video – posted under the username @chloewarfieldx – has racked up over 216k views.

As close to 8,000 people gave it a like, a further 124 flooded to comments, where one said: ”I’m gonna have to run to Tesco’s for those leopard shorts.”

Someone else chimed in: ”Blue dress is 10/10.”

Another shopper said: ”bought the last dress today and it’s honestly sooo gorgeous on. they do it in black as well and a gorgeous khaki green kinda colour too.”

SHOPPERS have been rushing to Primark for their holiday must-haves.

Look Fantastic

And now it’s selling a beauty pack you won’t want to forget in your hand luggage.

It’s already brought out Sol De Janeiro dupes in the past including a range of body mists and bath products.

But now Primark has upped the stakes with its new travel-friendly buy.

For just £6 you can now get a lip balm, moisturiser and body mist to rival the designer brand.

The Santorini Sunset travel bag costs just £6 making it way cheaper to the Sol De Janeiro option which retails for £30.

The travel essentials come in a gorgeous almond and caramel scent much like the luxe brand’s classic Chirosa collection.

Primark’s original line-up of Sol de Janeiro dupes was released in April last year and consisted of three holiday-esque fragrances. 

Then in January this year, fast fashion bosses added five more scents – including the Santorini Sunsets. 

Among the others are Capri Coast, Bali Blush, Rio Romance and Fiji Fiesta, and they all come in similar bottles to the £24 Sol de Janeiro viral Perfume Mists.

The travel set comes in an orange travel bag to match and is under the 100ml limit for hand luggage making it perfect for any vacations this year.

Holiday Must-haves

Primark has gone viral this year for its selection of cheap hand luggage.

TikTok user Pia Blossom decided to put it’s new carry on suitcase to the test and see how much the popular tiny bag can hold – while being within the regulations.

It measures 40x20x25cm, when its wheels are removed, meaning it’s fully compliant with Ryanair’s underseat baggage dimensions (40x20x25cm)

It’s also ideal for EasyJet customers, with their under-seat cabin bag’s maximum dimensions being 45x36x20cm, including handles and wheels.

The airline claims this size allows you to “bring all the essentials for a short trip” – but Pia decided to see if this was true for her.

“Shall we see how much we can fit in it?” she asked viewers.

Getting to work, Pia managed to add a “couple of dresses, a couple of jackets, cardigan, underwear, spare bra and [two pairs of] summery shoes.”

“I almost forgot pyjamas, but we got them in there, too.

“This is closing much easier than I thought it would, which feels like a challenge to put more in.

“I am so impressed with that.”

The singer, 42, appeared on today’s Good Morning Britain, where she revealed how she had been diagnosed last year.

The star said she had an itch on her back after being in the sun on holiday in Majorca.

Natasha put the discomfort down to a mosquito bite and thought nothing of it.

However, she ended up getting her husband to have a look after it wouldn’t go away.

Natasha then sought medical attention and was diagnosed with skin cancer.

The singer then had a Basal-cell carcinoma removed from her back.

The star – who shot to fame in the late 90s with her band Atomic Kitten – said she has since had treatment and is “cancer free”.

Natasha said although her skin cancer hasn’t been directly linked to sunbeds, she said she overused them at the height of her bands fame in the noughties.

She revealed her diagnosis had been a “massive wake-up call”.

NATASHA’S JOURNEY

Natasha waited a year before revealing she had skin cancer.

Speaking to Scott McGlynn on the Celebrity Skin Talk podcast, she said: “I actually had skin cancer last year.

“I had a Basal-cell carcinoma removed from my back, and it was a massive wake-up call for me. It was like, ‘Oh.’

“I have burnt my back so much over the years, and I used sunbeds when I was younger, you know, back in the 90s, it was like everyone used a sunbed before you went on your night out on a Saturday, and the repercussions of that is now I have to be super vigilant in the sun, like I need to have my high factors on…

“I can’t be burning. I have to check my skin religiously for changes in like moles and freckles.”

PLACING a penny in your bird bath can have an unexpected benefit this summer.

This simple and extremely cheap step can help to transform your garden decor, and help attract more birds.

Placing a penny in your bird bath can help to prevent an unsightly problem (stock image)[/caption]

As well as serving as a stylish feature, bird baths have a positive impact on your outdoor space.

They attract birds to your garden, helping to control the amount of insects in your flowerbeds.

However, they also tend to become a breeding ground for algae.

But according to experts, there is a quick trick which can solve this problem, and there’s no scrubbing involved..

The solution is also extremely cost-effective, as all you need is one penny.

According to the experts at Homes and Gardens, throwing a penny into your bird bath can help to ward off algae.

“The copper present in pre-1982 one or two-penny coins triggers a chemical reaction in your bird bath’s water,” the pros explained.

They continued on to say that this “acts to naturally fend off the development of algae”.

Rocky Trifari, a bird enthusiast and owner of The Rocky Safari, spoke to the publication about the benefits of the hack.

“Copper is a natural biocide with properties that interfere with the biological processes algae and other microorganisms rely on,” the expert said.

“When copper ions leach into the water, they promote an environment that discourages the growth of green algae, one of the main causes of that slimy, dirty water found in birdbaths.”

Make sure your pennies are free of rust or corrosion before adding them to your bird bath.

Since birds drink and bathe in the water, prolonged exposure to these elements could cause health risks.

While pennies won’t act as a permanent solution to algae, they can definitely help reduce growth.

What does the RSPB think?

The organisation said: “Birds need water for drinking and bathing.

“There are many ways of providing water in the garden, but the simplest? A bird bath.

“Many people put food out for birds, but fewer provide a regular supply of clean water. Birds need water for drinking and bathing.

“Bird baths are particularly important in weather extremes: During winter when natural supplies may be frozen, and in dry conditions such as hot summers with weeks of no rain.

“But being small and enclosed, bird baths can easily become dirty and stagnant, and even dangerous, without regular cleaning.

“Make sure you change the water in your bird bath daily and give bird baths a thorough clean once a week to help prevent the spread of disease.”

Other cleaning hacks and gardening tips

A £1 buy can also be used to transform your mouldy outdoor furniture.

Alternatively, a kitchen ingredient can also be used to scrub up your garden set.

Another budget buy is also said to leave your outdoor garden set gleaming in time for summer.

Or you can opt to clean your garden furniture in seconds with a DIY hack.

And an 80p hack helps to lift stubborn algae from your garden surfaces.
