Shoppers can bag top-rated Shark vacuum cleaner for £220 cheaper at little known outlet
Tech giant Shark is a brand renowned for its cooling fans, beauty stylers and cleaning devices, including top of the range vacuum cleaners. Now usually, Shark vacuums are quite the investment setting you back a few hundred pounds, but thankfully, Shark and shopping deals site QVC have both launched sales, slashing the cost of a handful of products including the Shark Anti Hair Wrap Cordless Pet Vacuum Cleaner . While you can get the Shark Anti Hair Wrap Cordless Vacuum on the brand's website for £169, QVC is selling a very similar make and model for £159 - down from £379. As you may have noticed by the product name, this vacuum cleaner is part of QVC's outlet range . While it doesn't make the product's performance any less, as the website explains "outlet products are products which we're offering you at a reduced price as they may be returns from other customers or come from discounted ranges."

They may not be in their original packaging and on occasion we will repackage them ourselves. "Although the product's original manufacturer warranty will no longer apply, an outlet product will still be sold under our 60-day money back guarantee." The Outlet Shark Anti Hair Wrap Cordless Pet Vacuum Cleaner is loved for being lightweight, flexible and 'simple to use' and comes with no power cord making it easy to manoeuvre around the house without getting tangled up in wires. With promises to keep your home dust and odour-free, the vacuum has nifty anti hair-wrap technology which eliminates the mundane and infuriating job of unpicking tangled hair clumps from the brush bar. How it works is the battery-powered and rechargeable vacuum 'separates and removes long, short and pet hair from the motorised brush-roll as you clean, sucking it straight up into the dust cup and helping to keep the brush-roll tangle free.' Ideal if you've got a pet, this QVC price beats that of the similarly designed £189.99 VAX HomePro Pet-Design Cordless Vacuum Cleaner which is cordless, defies pet hair and comes with a flexiclean pole to help you reach under furniture. Elsewhere, Henry Quick Cordless Vacuum Cleaner195/1402 for Argos, is slightly more expensive at £200 and delivers up to 60 minutes of clean time. Although if you're happy for 40 minutes at the cheaper price, Shark's vacuum cleaner may be just the ticket. Alongside the anti-hair wrap technology, this vacuum also comes with two floor modes, which allows you to easily shift from carpet to hard floor mode and back again at the touch of a button which is found on the handle. What's more is those who suffer with allergies, be it dust or other, can rest safe in the knowledge that the Outlet Shark Anti Hair Wrap Cordless Pet Vacuum Cleaner is crafted with an anti-allergen complete seal. This seal makes sure the dust and allergens that are picking up along the way stay in the bin thanks to the product's filters. This seal traps '99.9% of the dust and allergens inside the vacuum, ensuring that they're not released back into the air you breathe'. LED headlghts on the head of the vacuum cleaner are great for spotting dust and dirt that aren't easily visible. Plus, the device comes with separate attachments to different locations: a crevice tool, upholstery tool, pet tool and accessory bag. These attachments look to be relatively easy to swap out and its flexible wand allows you to tackle those hard-to-reach places - under the sofa for example. While the vacuum cleaner hasn't received many reviews on the QVC website, one happy customer shared a glowing review which read: "Bought the Shark hoping it would be better than my current vacuum, very pleased with it." While they did share how they "would not say it is light", they concluded their review by stating that it is "manageable as I am disabled". At £159, the QVC website shares how this is the cheapest price in over 30 days for the Outlet Shark Anti Hair Wrap Cordless Pet Vacuum Cleaner. To get it, visit QVC here and type in ' Outlet Shark Anti Hair Wrap Cordless Pet Vacuum Cleaner' to find the product.

Fashion editors' top tips on how to style the nineties Bermuda shorts trend that's having a resurgence
WHETHER you're looking for something new to add to your summer workwear wardrobe, or want another option for your holiday, the Bermuda style could be for you. With their longer length and versatility, the '90s shorts style has been trending for a few years, and they're not going anywhere this summer. From smart pleated pairs perfect for the office or events, to relaxed denim versions that make a great swap for your usual jeans, there's something for everyone. Our Fashion team has rounded up their top picks from the high street, plus how to style them. Clemmie Fieldsend, 34, Fashion Editor This season, I've switched up my beloved denim cut-offs for a longer style - enter the Jort. I love F&F jeans, so it only seemed fitting to give their bargain £18 pair a whirl - and I'm so glad I did, as I love them! They're just as comfortable as my trusty jeans and look so stylish when dressed up with a crisp white blazer. M&S stores are rammed with tons of sizes of all its stock, because of its online struggles, so it's never been a better time to shop in-person. It was love at first sight with this blazer, and I know I'll wear it hundreds of times throughout the summer, to work or on holiday. I've paired them with these New Look heels I already have in my wardrobe that are comfortable for the nine-to-five (trust me!), and this designer-inspired bag from H&M makes an effortlessly summery look. Finally, I'll add a flash of colour with this stunning Abbott Lyon jade green necklace. Abby McHale, 30, Deputy Fashion Editor Gone are the days when I used to pull out my very short denim shorts for the summer - these days, I'm all about the longer length. Which is why the Bermuda style is great for me. I love this belted yellow pair from & Other Stories - not only is pale yellow one of the big colours this season, but the belt also gives me some extra shape at the waist. While these shorts are fairly smart, I've made the look a little more casual with a graphic T-shirt (this one is a bargain at just £12.99) and some flat fisherman sandals. With an extra pop of print thanks to this Damson Madder leopard bag and a pair of sunnies, this is a look I'll be wearing on repeat all summer long. Tracey Lea Sayer, 53, Fashion Director 4 I love a tailored short suit for when the temperature soars in the city, because it is the perfect alternative to a trouser suit. This summer, it's all about Bermuda shorts - a longer, baggier style than I am used to, but I definitely want to give them a go. While in my head I dream of being that cool COS model who wears their Bermudas low-slung and skater style, the fact is that my mum-tum will pop over the top, which is so not cool! So, I have gone for a smarter option. These long-line pleated shorts give great coverage around my waistline, plus they feel office-appropriate because of the longer length. I've teamed the suit with buttermilk accessories and a pair of Le Specs sunnies. Summer in the city? Bring it on! Emily Regan, 25, Fashion Assistant 4 I've enjoyed wearing Bermuda shorts in my workwear wardrobe for a couple of years now, and recently I switched them in for my denim pair while on holiday. If you're yet to try the trend and don't want to spend a fortune, this cream pair from Primark's Edit range is under £20. The shorts are super-versatile and come complete with pockets and belt loops. I've styled them with this gorgeous printed shirt from H&M, matching beaded earrings and a raffia bag, plus some sandals that you could easily swap for gold heels in the evening. See you at the airport! Why the high street still rules! Fabulous' Fashion Director, Tracey Lea Sayer shares her thoughts. I WAS 10 when I first discovered the utter joy of high-street shopping for clothes with my mum and nan. Going into town on Saturday became a family tradition – a girls' day out we would look forward to all week. My mum's favourite shop was M&S, where she would gaze at jackets with big shoulder pads and floral sundresses, while my nan would make a beeline for John Lewis and their classic coats and elegant court shoes. I was all over Tammy Girl – Etam's little sister – and Chelsea Girl, which was later rebranded to high-street fave River Island. I would spend hours in the changing rooms, watched keenly by my two cheerleaders, who gave the thumbs up – or thumbs down – on what I was trying on. Frilly ra-ra skirts, duster coats, polka dot leggings, puff balls, boob tubes… I tried them all, often making my nan howl with laughter. Fashion wasn't so fast back in the 1980s and every item was cherished and worn until it fell apart – literally – at the seams. At 18, I went to art college and my tastes became more refined. Extra cash from a part-time job in a bar meant I could move on to slightly more expensive stores, like Warehouse, Miss Selfridge and the mecca that was Topshop. I knew at this point I wanted to work in fashion because the high street had totally seduced me. One day, I wrote an article for a competition in a glossy mag about my love of retail therapy and my favourite LBD – and I won! That led me to where I am today – Fashion Director of Fabulous. It's not just me that loves the high street – big-name designers are fans, too. When Cool Britannia hit in the '90s, they all turned up in one big store. Designers at Debenhams was a stroke of genius by Debenhams CEO Belinda Earl, designer Ben de Lisi and fashion director Spencer Hawken, who introduced diffusion ranges from John Rocha, Matthew Williamson and Betty Jackson, to name a few. This meant we could all afford a bit of luxury and wear a well-known designer's signature style. Years later, I hosted a night with Debenhams and Fabulous for 250 readers, who were in awe meeting all the designers. It was a real career highlight for me. In 2004, H&M started rolling out their international designer collabs. Karl Lagerfeld was first, followed by Roberto Cavalli, Marni, Stella McCartney, Maison Martin Margiela, Sonia Rykiel, Comme des Garçons, Balmain, Versace and many, many more. I could barely contain myself! Then in 2007, Kate Moss launched her first collection with Topshop, with thousands queuing along London's Oxford Street. I remember sitting behind Ms Moss and Topshop boss Philip Green at a London Fashion Week Topshop Unique catwalk show. I had my three-year-old daughter, Frankie, in tow and we both made the news the next day after we were papped behind Kate, my supermodel girl crush. At the time, the high street was on fire. Who needed designer buys when Mango stocked tin foil trousers just like the designer Isabel Marant ones and you could buy a bit of Barbara Hulanicki's legendary brand Biba from Topshop? High street stores even started to storm London Fashion week. Although Topshop Unique had shown collections since 2001, in 2013 River Island showed its first collection in collaboration with global superstar Rihanna, who was flown in by a friend of mine on a private jet. KER-CHING! A whole new generation of high profile high street collabs followed. Beyoncé created Ivy Park with Topshop's Philip Green and I even flew to LA for Fabulous to shoot the Kardashian sisters in their bodycon 'Kollection' for Dorothy Perkins. I am pleased to say they were the absolute dream cover stars. Fast forward to 2024 and while the high street doesn't look exactly like it did pre-Covid, it has made a gallant comeback. Stores like M&S, Reserved and Zara, and designer collabs like Victoria Beckham X Mango and Rochelle Humes for Next are giving me all the feels. The supermarkets have really come into their own, too, smashing it with gorgeous collections that look expensive, but at prices that still allow us to afford the weekly shop. The last 30 years of high street fashion have been one big adventure for me. Bring on the next 30!

Spot a scam before it hits you - and your finances: How to protect yourself against increasing online threats
More than £570 million was stolen in payment fraud in the first half of 2024 according to trade association UK Finance, with scams continuing to pose a significant threat to your personal finances. The latest high-profile cyber attacks on M&S, Harrods and Co-op have only highlighted the need to protect yourself against scams. > How McAfee Scam Detector can help you outsmart scammers M&S has admitted that certain customer details were stolen and is recommending that users change their passwords for their online accounts. Scams often heat up after major cyber attacks. You should be extra cautious if you receive texts, emails or calls claiming to be from well-known organisations, such as M&S or Co-op. What steps can you take to avoid being conned out of your money? With the help of McAfee we explain. Think twice: Check you're dealing with a legitimate organisation before giving your details How to protect yourself against scams Fake messages or scam calls often request you to part with sensitive information urgently, with the aim of stealing your financial details. This gives criminals access to your accounts – allowing them to steal your money. Regarding the recent cyber attacks, you should be wary of any contact claiming to be from the organisations affected. Scammers take advantage of events like this, sometimes by demanding that you hand over your financial details in return for compensation or another monetary reward. The Take Five campaign against fraud recommends three steps when you're asked to divulge sensitive information: Stop: Don't part with information – or your cash – before taking a minute to think about it first. Criminals will try to rush you, so hold your ground. Challenge: It's better to ignore, reject or refuse suspicious requests than go along with them. You can contact the organisation to check the contact is genuine. Protect: If you've parted with sensitive information, get in touch with your bank (or other relevant financial provider) straight away and contact Action Fraud. You should also review how secure your online accounts and devices are. For example, the National Cyber Security Centre recommends: Protecting accounts with strong, unique passwords – especially sensitive accounts such as your email (if you use the same password across multiple accounts, criminals only need one to gain access to everything). Creating passwords using three random words, which makes them more difficult to hack (many passwords also require you to use numbers, special characters and capital letters). Using a password manager. Installing software and app updates as soon as they're available. Enabling two-step verification where possible, which adds an extra layer of protection. Backing up your data. Finally it's imperative you protect your devices with powerful online protection software, which can detect threats and neutralise them before they cause harm. How can online protection software help you avoid scams? Online protection apps traditionally protect your devices against malicious software, but the programs available today can go much further than that. For example, McAfee's Scam Detector flags suspicious emails and texts and can even block risky sites if you accidentally click through to them. It can also alert you to potential deepfake video scams – these are becoming more common, with AI duping people into parting with their cash. McAfee Scam Detector can also help you become more savvy about detecting scams in the first place, because it explains why it's flagged a suspicious email. Scam Detector is included in all McAfee's core plans, including McAfee Total Protection and McAfee+.
