I’m a size 16 & I’ve found the best Autumn/Winter buys from F&F – there’s stylish jackets & a dress that’s so flattering
A FASHION fan has proudly shown off her new Autumn/Winter buys from Tesco.
So if you fancy treating yourself to some new clothes, but are on a budget and can’t afford to splash too much cash, then you’ll need to check this out.
Rebecca Sudwarts, a fashionista who is five foot eight and in between a size 14 and 16, was lucky enough to get her hands on a range of must-have Autumn/Winter buys, as well as a dress that’s super flattering.
Not only this, but she also nabbed a leather jacket and a coat that are perfect for the change in season.
The curvy fashion fan, who is from the UK, took to social media to share her honest thoughts on her new F&F haul, leaving many very impressed.
Posting online, the ex Senior Fashion Buyer kicked off her haul with a pair of leopard print jeans.
Thrilled with her denims, she beamed: “We know leopard is everywhere, it’s really having a moment.
“I must say, I really do like this print and the denim is really nice, it’s got a slight stretch to it.
“I really like that it’s high-rise and slim, it’s a nice change from the wide leg that seems to be everywhere at the moment.”
She paired the jeans with a bodysuit, as she advised: “Also if you haven’t checked out F&F’s bodysuits, definitely try. They’re a great basic to have in your wardrobe and they come in loads of different options.”
We then saw Rebecca in a pair of blue denim jeans, which she paired with a leather jacket, as she added: “Also saw these really nice, turn-up, wide leg jeans.
“I really love this jacket, it’s got so much detail on it, it’s a really cool block, almost like a vintage block.”
Following this, the fashionista modelled her new coat, which cost her £49.50, as she explained: “Love this coat, it is so warm.
“It is so premium looking, it’s got a hood as well.
“How amazing would this be in the winter? It would really keep you warm.
“I absolutely love the colour and think it’s a great price.”
Reasons to shop supermarket fashion
When looking for new pieces to add to your seasonal wardrobe, or update your basics, there's no need to spend hours walking around clothes shops, or scrolling online. Just pick up a dress or two alongside your fruit and veg...
They’re convenient – Chances are you visit your supermarket more times than a shopping centre or high street.
It’s affordable – For basics to more fashion-led pieces, supermarkets are leading the way for budget fashion that doesn’t look cheap.
They’re more on-trend that you think – With a customer database larger than the average high street store, shops like ASDA, Sainsbury’s and Tesco are able to cater to the markets and predict trends in a lot more areas than just food supply.
They fit well – Fits and lengths often come with a little more modesty in mind. Fabrics are often highly practical too—think plenty of 100% cotton that can be thrown into the washing machine without thought.
Rebecca then modelled a pair of £19.50 faux leather leggings and a striped jumper, as she expressed: “A nice big baggy jumper and some leather-look leggings.
“They’re very generous, super high waisted so really comfy and the jumper is just £16 and I love it because it’s a bum cover.”
To finish off the haul, the content creator showed off her new dress, which she described as “stunning”.
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.
Thrilled with the trendy dress, Rebecca concluded: “It’s an amazing shape, a v-neck and it pulls you in at your waist and skims over your tummy.
“I know I’ll get so much wear out of this in the winter.
“At this point I’m prepared to give F&F all my money.”
