And perhaps the best part of all? It’s from Tesco’s F&F.

In the clip shared on TikTok (@stylingwithrebecca), Rebecca, who is between a size 14 and 16, says: “I came back from holiday, had to pick up milk and essentials and unfortunately this happened.”

Showing off her mega supermarket outfits, she starts off wearing a stunning blue and white printed dress, which she pairs with beige sandals.

Delighted with the look and fit of the dress, she enthuses: “Wow! This dress is special!

“It costs £35 but it’s absolutely beautiful!”

She continues: “How flattering is that? It’s pulling me by the waist.

“It has a beautiful flowing sleeve detail and the embroidery is all round.

“It’s such an easy shape that pulls me in here, hiding my belly.”

Rebecca goes on to note what the “perfect midi length” looks like, before branding the supermarket dress an “absolute winner”.

And for anyone eager to swap their dresses for summer tailoring, Rebecca has a great alternative for you.

She then wears a pair of 100% linen white shorts costing £19.50 and a matching £22.50 vest from F&F’s Edit collection.

Pointing to the vest, she shares her fashion advice and notes: “This would also look super cute with, say, jeans.”

As for the shorts, she enthuses: “It’s a lovely quality linen that’s really Cool and flattering to the left.”

Rebecca goes on to point out that the stunning combination also comes in other colors if you don’t have the courage to wear white.

“I think this is such a gorgeous summer look,” she adds.

Moving on, she then styles a £22.50 white and brown embroidered shirt with a pair of jeans.

Wow! This is a special dress! “How flattering is this? It’s pulling me in by the waist

“They had matching shorts, but unfortunately they didn’t have my size,” she explains.

“But I thought that would be so Cool way to show how to use it in our English summer.

‘It has beautiful details… I love the neutral tones of the embroidery and it has a scalloped hem.’

But if you’re looking to add an injection of color to your wardrobe for the warmer months, fear not… because the fashion genius has you covered.

Wearing a head-turning blue combination, she says: “I already have this set in white and when I saw it in this bright cobalt blue, I was so excited.

“It’s such a beautiful color!”

Rebecca continues: “The shorts are super flattering and fully lined, although the shirt is not.

“I layered it over a white vest just to show how I would wear it in the UK, but to be honest I would probably wear this as a slip on holiday over my swimsuit.

“It’s a very good set.”

And last but not least, the fashionista opts for a white and black printed dress, which costs £29.50.

“Another very flattering shape pulling me in at the waist and skimming my belly,” she says.

“I also love puff sleeves.

“If you’re paying attention to your arms, this is a really good shape to wear in the summer.”

How to look chic on a budget

Fashion stylist Gemma Rose Breger and beauty journalist Samantha Silver have revealed how you can elevate your looks without spending hundreds of pounds.

1. Never spend on designer jeans: River Island ”always has a great selection of fashionable jeans that follow current trends”. The high street retailer offers a huge range of sizes for UK 6 – UK 18 and three leg lengths – and prices start at an affordable £25.
2. There are no rules for jewelry: ”Buy something at a car boot sale or charity shop, browse Vinted and eBay, buy something in the clothing section of your local supermarket when shopping, or check out high street clothing stores.”
3. Don’t forget your favorite sites: With a growing number of second-hand sites like Vinted and Depop, there’s no excuse not to buy – or sell – used clothes. Gemma, for example, managed to get her hands on chic Chanel sunglasses for just £17.

It wasn’t long before the post racked up an impressive 88,000 views from fashion fans across the country – with one dress in particular proving to be a hit.

“I loved the first dress,” wrote one.

A second agreed: “I loved nobody especially.”

A third added: “Number 1 is beautiful!”

Meanwhile, a fourth noted: “Love both dresses. I’m going straight to Tesco tomorrow!!”

And another chimed in: “So beautiful!”
