If you are looking for a budget-friendly summer dress that is flattering for the warmer weather, then it looks like Sainsbury's shoppers have found the one.
While we may all think that a weekly trip to the supermarket means only picking up groceries, many of them are home to some low cost clothing ranges that are a hit with shoppers.
And with the cost of living crisis continuing to affect everyone's bank accounts, it has become quite important to find a few fashionable buys for your wardrobe without going over budget.
The Liverpool Echo reports one such buy is a £22 dress from Sainsbury's own clothing label Tu. The supermarket's own fashion outlet was selling a vibrant pink dress that was worn by a host of Instagram influencers who couldn't stop swooning over the summer buy.
Described by Sainsbury's as "made from pure cotton, this poplin midi dress in a bold pink hue with puff sleeves is an eye-catching style for the season ahead. Team with a denim jacket and a pair of chunky white trainers.” The bold £22 summer dress has been worn by Fashion experts @carolinesstylehacks, @carolem_beauty, @stripeycoral and @fashionabell_, who have a combined 160 thousand followers between them.
Due to its popularity, this product is now out of stock on the Tu website.
It has received six reviews on its website, all of which were very positive as it has a clean sweep of five stars. Among the comments left include “Love this dress fits nice over bust and very flattering” and “I bought a size 16 and it fits true to size. Very comfortable to wear, dresses up or down! Looks great with sandals or trainer type shoes . Ironing is a task but very worth it as it didn’t crease too much when worn. Love it!”
Replying to the Instagram post, one of the foursome, @stripeycoral, said “Thank you! It’s such a great summer dress”. @peonie.cole.cottage exclaimed “It’s so gorgeous” while @twig_the_wonder_kid stated “Found one today in my local Sainsbury's! Could not believe my luck.”
If this isn’t quite to your taste, there are plenty of similar options advertised on the Tu site. For example, their attractive Blue Puff Sleeve Midi Dress is priced just £2 higher - at £24 - while if you fancy keeping the candy pink colour but aren’t keen on a dress, the Pink Longline Poplin Shirt at £18 could be for you.
Elsewhere, the Pink Puff Sleeve Textured Midi Dress and Lilac Shirred Poplin Midi Dress are more subtle options. Their Pastel Abstract Leaf Puff Sleeve Dress (£25) and Floral Square Neck Puff Sleeve Midi Dress (£22) feature more creative designs that could be perfect for the summer season.
