A FASHION fanatic has hailed a top supermarket for its incredible dupes and spring arrivals after doing a huge shopping haul.
Abbie Blyth, from Glasgow, regularly shares her shopping and lifestyle tips on TikTok where she boasts 37,000 followers (@abbieblyth).
The 30-year-old is one of Scotland’s biggest and most successful influencers, and even owns her own fashion label BLY.
But she still likes to pick up a pretty bargain when it catches her eye.
In a recent video post, Abbie said: “I popped down to Tesco to get snack bits and stuff and I always go to the clothing section and the pyjama bit because I like to treat myself every once in a while, aka every week.
“And oh my god, who is the buyer for Tesco? Chef’s kiss. You deserve a pay rise for starters.
“A big a** pay rise because it’s popping off.”
First up, the blonde beauty grabbed some Skims dupes – a black short sleeved bodysuit and a twin set of seamless bras.
She gushed: “Skim dupes are really popping off at Tesco. They have these skims bodysuits.
“I’ve tried this on. It’s thick. It’s not see-through.
“I just thought I always needed a black tight slinky vibe bodysuit. And this, I want to say this was like £14 or £18. It was like along that price point.”
Abbie also picked up a pair of taupe and white gym leggings for £18 and matching crop top, priced at £14.
She said: “Now I did size up [in the crop top]. I got this in a medium, which I think is like a 12 to 14 at Tesco, for the boobs.
“And I got the same medium [in the leggings] because I am a 12 and, sorry, gorgeous.”
Finally, the fashionista picked up a white zippy sweatshirt that she hailed as the “comfiest thing”.
She concluded: “If you’re needing some basics and you don’t want to spend a fortune on Skims then Tesco’s where it’s at.”
Abbie’s clip, titled “sorry but Tesco is coming through with staples”, has racked up more than 60,000 views.
And other shoppers are now desperate to hit their nearest F&F aisle for a look.
“I need the jacket omg”, one fashion fan gushed.
A second wrote: “Tesco better have some good stuff still when I’m paid.”
“Tesco is where it’s at”, added a third.
Meanwhile, a fourth said: “Love F&F bodysuits.”
Influencer Abbie returned to our TV screens last year as reality show The Agency: Unfiltered’s second season aired on BBC Scotland.
The new series once again followed Aquarius Creative, Scotland’s largest influencer agency, its founders Kirsten Cameron and Amy Moore, and their clients.
During the new series, Abbie revealed how she was scammed out of thousands of pounds.
How has Tesco's F&F upped its game
By Fabulous' Fashion Editor Clemmie Fieldsend
ZARA has become a high street staple in recent years thanks to its hot-off-the-catwalk designs and affordable prices.
But recently those prices have risen with the brand’s popularity.
However, if you are looking for high fashion inspired outfits with low price tags you needn’t drag yourself to your local shops, just head to the supermarket instead.
F&F has come a long way from selling a few backs of T-shirts and fluffy dressing gowns and is now a must have shopping destination for thousands.
They produce good quality, long lasting and on trend clothes that puts others to shame.
F&F is filled with Zara dupes and other looks inspired by our favourite shops that will set you back less than £50 – and you can get them while you pick up your dinner.
I for one love F&F denim, it’s durable, fits really well and has all the best silhouettes.
So even if you’re not looking for reasonable prices but just want good clothes, get yourself to Tesco.
The blonde beauty tearfully admitted that she nearly lost her fashion label BLY after hackers wiped out her business bank account.
Abbie said: “BLY cost me around £20,000 just to get up and running.
“I had helped my mum and dad with buying a new home – so I was quite proud of the amount of savings I had managed to put away.
“And I thought when I launched BLY, I was quite settled and I would be fine.
“But when the scam happened, it was five days after me and my ex had just split up.
“It completely wiped out my savings as I had poured everything else into BLY.
“They took every penny from me, and it put me back in every aspect, in my personal life and my business.”
