Primark is selling a dupe of necklace both Molly-Mae & Princess Kate love for £1.5k less as Valentine’s Day hits stores
WITH just over three weeks until Valentine’s Day, if you want to level up your accessory game for next month, you’ve come to the right place.
Luckily for bargain hunters, Valentine’s Day has officially landed at Primark – and there’s plenty of stunning, but incredibly affordable, accessories to choose from.
Not only are there belts and bags, but shoppers will also be able to get their hands on bows and jewellery too.
Prices start at just £3, and there’s even a stunning necklace that looks almost identical to a posh version from designer brand Van Cleef & Arpels.
One savvy shopper, Chloe Mcwhinney, was left open-mouthed when browsing the aisles in her local Primark, when she spotted the large selection of reasonably-priced February 14th buys.
Thrilled with her finds, Chloe took to social media to alert others, leaving many open-mouthed.
Posting on Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, a private Facebook group with 2.6million members, Chloe shared snaps of the new-in accessories and wrote: “How sweet are the Valentine’s accessories in Primark!”
She then added: “Pretty reasonable as well I’d say!”
Not only is the budget retailer selling stunning handbags with bow charms for just £10, but there’s also bold heart bags, which are available in white and red, and are also only £10.
Beauty fans will be thrilled when they see the pack of four heart hair clips, which are just £4.50, as well as the beautiful red hair bows, which are only £4.
But that’s not all, as there’s also black leather belts with gorgeous gold hearts, which will cost shoppers only £5.
And if that wasn’t enough, jewellery enthusiasts will be overjoyed to see a jaw-dropping heart necklace for just £3.
Not only is the heart necklace sure to add style to any outfit, but it’s strikingly similar to a luxury buy from Van Cleef & Arpels – a brand loved by both Molly-Mae Hague, 25, and Kate Middleton, 43 – which retails at £1,590.
So if you fancy upgrading your jewellery collection, whilst saving yourself £1,587, then you’ll need to head down to your nearest store – and fast.
Why Primark is great for looking expensive on a budget
By Clemmie Feildsend, Fabulous Fashion Editor
AS someone who’s no stranger to grabbing a last-minute outfit from Primark for a night out, it’s about time that celebrities started catching on too.
For as long as I’ve been heading out, Primark has been my go-to for those “I have nothing to wear” moments, rushing in at the last minute to find something perfect.
And I’m definitely not alone – on any Friday or Saturday night, you’ll find plenty of shoppers doing the same thing, right before closing time.
But no matter what, Primark always delivers.
Now, Rita Ora is leading the charge, showing that you can snag a designer-worthy look without spending a fortune at high-end stores.
While Rita’s not rushing in last minute for a red carpet outfit, she’s proving you can achieve the same high-impact style for much less.
Looking stunning in her tailored suit alongside her mum Vera, Rita fit right in among the other A-listers dripping in Prada, Dior, and Victoria Beckham – if anything, she looked even better than some of the guests at The Fashion Awards.
With Myleene Klass and Roxy Horner already jumping on the Primark bandwagon, I’m sure more stars will be following suit soon enough.
Primark fans beam
Chloe’s post has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly amassed almost 600 likes.
Primark fans were impressed with the bargain buys and many eagerly flocked to the comments to express this.

Why is Primark the place to go to for bargains?
JUST how does Primark do it? Continue delivering on-trend items at such incredible prices? According to bosses, it's down to four points.
- They “sell a lot of items” – Thanks to that, they are able to make savings by buying in bulk for their 191 UK stores
- They “do very little advertising”
- While their clothes offer the “latest trends”, they “don’t use expensive hangers, tags or labels”.
- And lastly, they try to be “as efficient as possible when transporting products from factories to stores”. This includes things like asking “suppliers to pack our t-shirts so they are ready to go straight on shelf”.

One bargain hunter mentioned a Facebook user and asked: “Please can we go soon.”
Another tagged a friend and simply questioned: “Primark trip?”
Whilst someone else alerted a Primark fan and claimed: “We need a trip after pay day.”
