In a recent clip, the 25-year-old showed off the sale purchases she made on vacation.
Eve – from Scotland – is currently enjoying the sun in Andalusia, Spain.
While there, she went to the local mall and bought a cute striped set from Pull & Bear.
She was disappointed with the prices at Mango, but hit the jackpot at Zara after seeing a beautiful white beaded bag on sale.
Eve said: “I’ve been thinking about this bag for a long time
“My friend bought it and threw it for my friend’s baby shower and I thought ‘I need to get this.’
“But it’s so expensive, it costs around £50 in the Glasgow store.”
In fact, the faux pearl mini bowling bag will cost £49.99 in UK stores and online.
But that’s not what Eve paid abroad.
“I managed to find him [on holiday].I was looking thinking but it’s so expensive for a bag until I saw the boom [sale sticker].
“It’s €25.99. I bought it for €25.99”
At the current exchange rate, that works out to £21.84, meaning savvy Eva managed to save £28.15.
So if there’s something expensive you’re looking for in the high street store, it might be worth waiting until the next holiday to compare the price.
If this has inspired you to visit your nearest Zara, one shopper has revealed her revolutionary trick for avoiding long queues – and it’s thanks to a lesser-known feature on her app.
Jess Bell, who has 123,000 followers thanks to her fashionable looks, shared: “Here’s how you can skip the fitting room line every time at Zara.
“I’ve been shopping at Zara for years and I don’t know how many people don’t know about this app, but all you have to do is literally download a Zara app, click on store mode and get a QR code.”
She continued: “You want to open your Zara app, turn on location services, click where you are, female or male, and that’s it.
“So I have one that I want to try and obviously it’s going to ignore all these people and show my QR code just like that.
“Skip the line.
“They have one ready for people on the app and I’m going to test my stuff.
“I discovered this years and years ago and I feel like more people need to be brought into this.”
Why is Zara so popular?
Zara was founded in 1975 in Spain and the first UK store opened in 1998. It remains one of the most popular stores on the high street, but why?
Instead of producing more quantities of a style, Zara is said to focus on producing more styles.
Some statistics suggest that Zara launches 24 trend-led collections every year, 500 designs per week and almost 20,000 per year. Other estimates put its production levels at 450 million garments per year.
Even if a style sells out very quickly, there are new styles waiting to take its place. This means more options and greater chances of getting it right with the consumer.
Zara only allows its designs to remain on the factory floor for three to four weeks, which leads the consumer to continue visiting the store or website, as if it were delayed by just one week, clothes of a certain style or trend would be sold out and replaced by a new trend.
At the same time, this constant updating of the lines and styles of its stores also encourages customers to visit its stores more frequently.
