Social media users were gobsmacked with Clara's Shein buy and many eagerly raced to the comments to express this.
One person said: 'It's actually really nice! Was not expecting that.'
What is Shein and is it legit?
Shein is an online-only fast-fashion retailer, based out of China, that has become a number one shopping destination for many around the world.
The company was valued at $66billion in 2023, dwarfing that of popular high street brands Zara and H&M.
The fashion retailer was founded in late 2008, by entrepreneur and marketing specialist Xu Yangtian, also known as Chris Xu.
Shein is a legitimate selling website and is not a phishing scam.
But you may receive a disappointing order or run into shipping issues if you order from the site, according to reviews.
There have been swathes of quality complaints, which makes sense when looking at the price tag.
Another added: 'You took one for the team on this and I love you for it.'
A third commented: 'You're the hero we all needed. God bless you queen.'
Meanwhile, someone else asked: 'Have you taken the little one out in it to see if it's sturdy?'

In response, Clara wrote back and confirmed: 'Yes, gone out three times so far and it's great! If you're living in the UK, you know what the roads are like.'
At the same time, one mum gasped: 'You are telling me that I paid €700 for the Joolz Aer+ stroller just because of the folding option when I could have just bought one from Shein??'
To this, Clara responded with a crying emoji and simply said: 'Yes.'
And it's clear that it's not just Clara who was happy with this

I bought a dated caravan for £4.5k & turned it into my family's very own second home – now we holiday for just £10 a day

Now Jade Aldred and Joe Earl, both 25, have their very own second home and are able to go on holiday for just £10 a day.

'We were absolutely freezing through the night and both woke up with a cold. All of our friends had their central heating on and cooked Full English breakfasts. It was like home from home and we instantly knew we wanted a caravan after that.' Advertisement Most read in Fabulous But despite their desire to buy a caravan, Jade and Joe were in the process of saving to buy their first home, so didn't have loads of extra cash to splash. But they also knew their mortgage would make holidaying difficult - whereas with a caravan they 'could still go on holiday without the extreme prices.' As a result, the couple bought their It cost them a total of £4,500, which included the awning and extras. Advertisement I bought a £26k caravan, trolls say it's a mistake but my bank account disagrees Renovating on a budget But the caravan, which is nearly as old as Jade, was in need of an upgrade, so they headed to B&Q and IKEA, and ordered bargain buys from eBay and Shein, to transform it whilst staying on a budget.

Elvis has everything you need and the best part is your own bedding Jade Aldred 'I used a 14" upholstery needle from eBay for £6.99 and also buttons from eBay for £26. 'I watched endless tutorials on how to do it and they turned out really good and don't look any different since I did them.'

'It really is a mini home on wheels. Elvis has everything you need and the best part is your own bedding.' 'Young to own a caravan' But while Jade loves her cosy abode, she confesses that some people have been very vocal with their judgemental opinions. 'When people say 'you're young to have a caravan', it makes me feel old and boring but a lot of my friends hire caravans for weekends away and would love to buy one if they could. Advertisement Why caravan holidays are so underrated CARAVAN park holidays are a British staple. And with the cost of living crisis wreaking havoc on Britain's purses, more of us are turning to them for an affordable break. Josie O'Brien, Senior Digital Writer on Fabulous, weighs in on why she thinks caravan holidays are seriously underrated... WHEN I was a child, my mum used to collect the £9.50 holiday vouchers in The Sun. She'd use them to book a couple of nights away at a caravan park during the school holidays. As an adult, I fully appreciate the convenience of a humble caravan holiday. No faffing about with passports, no luggage limits and no bog-standard hotel breakfast of stale toast and grey eggs. I still love caravan holidays as an adult. In a world of doing everything for the 'gram, a caravan park brings you back to basics. There's no obligation to get dressed up, no stress to fit a million picturesque excursions in one week and I don't find myself flustered in tourist hot spots like abroad. I love going to coastal caravan parks and strolling along the beach parade. My highlight is always fresh mussels, ice-creams and classic pubs to grab an afternoon tipple in. And then, of course, there's the cost. Staying in a caravan is definitely way cheaper than my international trips. With no expensive hotel bills and the ability to cook my own meals, I'm spending hundreds less than I would abroad. I've had some of my best and most relaxing holidays in caravans. Maybe I'll buy my own one day. 'I think a lot of people associate having a caravan with the older generation [but] I think it's getting more and more popular with younger people having caravans and motorhomes,' Jade reflects. And not only do Jade and Jo travel around in their caravan, but it's great for the rest of their family too, as Jade acknowledges: 'I have taken my siblings on many trips away and they love it. 'We have had so many amazing times away with family and friends and made amazing memories and new friends for life.' Cutting costs on holidays Now, Jade and her family are able to go to campsites for just £10 a night, significantly reducing the cost of their holidays.
