From cute dresses to on-trend work attire, the fast-fashion range always hits the mark, and its autumn arrivals are no exception.
One maxi - or midi, depending on your height - skirt in particular has caught the attention of fashion fans this week thanks to its "90s vibes" and day-to-night potential.
The Black Tailored Kilt is priced at £25 and is available in sizes eight to 24, with many sold out online already.
Describing it on the website, the Tu Clothing team say: "Smart and right on trend, our black kilt has been designed in a tailored style, with traditional pleated detailing throughout.
"It comes in a maxi length with a side buckle fastening - perfect for wearing with boots or loafers"
Tu Clothing's stylist Chrissi has since recommended it to shoppers and admitted she's obsessed with the "cool buy".
She added: "[It's] really, really versatile. You can wear it with a big chunky boot, just a T-shirt, some simple jewellery. It's grungy, it's edgy, it's kind of 90s vibe, very cool.
"But if you want more of a London gritty edge, you could wear it over jeans, or maybe a knit. It'll take you through to autumn.
"If you want to give it even more of a twist, you could pair it with a shirt. Makes it a little more office friendly, so you can go from day to night in it.
"Maybe add a big hoop or a big necklace to take it through to dinner. Every way, it's good. It's so versatile, I love it."
I'm 5ft3 & a size 12-14 - my 7 Tesco dresses are an absolute bargain & perfect for a last-minute wedding guest outfit
And she's definitely not alone, as fashion fans are going wild for the Scottish-inspired skirt too.
One cried: "I love my new kilt. Super trendy and ideal for the new season. Good quality and a great price as well. Very impressed."
"Very smart looking skirt for smart and casual wear. Easily dressed up or down", wrote a second.
A third added: "That's definitely on my list. I want to be channeling my inner 'Claudia Winkelman in Traitors' this AW!"
"Ooh gorgeous, just ordered one!!! Can't wait", gushed a fourth.
A fifth said: "Wow! I have to have this statement skirt, it's gorgeous! I had one like this years ago!"
Meanwhile, a sixth chimed in: "So cool, Autumn cannot come soon enough!"
But if you're not ready to give up summer fashion just yet, the supermarket's got you covered with bargains there too.
Shoppers are going wild for a five-star Sainsbury's dress that's only £15, flatters pear shapes and makes curvy shoppers "feel confident".
As well as being purse-friendly, the dress looks strikingly similar to the Everett Linen Dress, which is priced at £298.
This makes the Tu dress a whopping £283 cheaper.
And a £26 frock that's perfect for summer getaways is flying off the rails.

We found the perfect £55 heart charm bracelet to rival Tiffany's £6k version

Tiffany's £6k heart charm bracelet is an iconic piece of jewellery, but we managed to track down a great budget-friendly alternative that'll set you back just £55 When it comes to jewellery, few things are quite as iconic as a piece from Tiffany. The luxury brand is the crème de la crème, but with that there also comes a hefty price tag, with one of its most sought after pieces of jewellery – the Return to Tiffany Heart Tag Bracelet in Yellow Gold – costing a massive £6,000. However, if you love the look but don't have money to burn, we found a gorgeous alternative at Abbott Lyon that'll cost you a fraction of the price. The Oval Link Chain Bracelet is just £55, and gives you fully customisable options to make it your own for the perfect personalised piece. The Abbott Lyon bracelet features a similar gold oval link chain which fastens with a T-bar closure, and you can pick between either small/medium or medium/large sizing. It's £55 for the bracelet on its own, then you have the option of choosing from a range of charms to add on, with the gold heart pendant perfect for giving you a Tiffany-inspired look. The heart charm is an additional £20, but you also have the option of adding plenty of others including letter initials and birthstone pendants, each with varying price points. You can also choose to add a second layering bracelet for half price if you want more of a stacked look. Despite its affordable price tag, the Oval Link Chain Bracelet is made from stainless steel with an 18k gold plating, and has been finished with an anti-tarnish protective coating to keep it in good condition. It's also swear, water and heat-resistant, so you can wear it anywhere, any time. A heart charm bracelet is one of those classic pieces that'll never go out of style, and we found some other great picks from some of our favourite jewellery brands. Tilly Sveaas has the Gold Belcher Bracelet with Gold Padlock Heart for £120, which is made from recycled sterling silver chain with two microns of 18kt gold plating and was made by a member of the Responsible Jewellery Council. Elsewhere Monica Vinader's Heart Charm Bracelet is £150 and is made from 18k gold vermeil with a lobster clasp. It has a softer, more delicate design, with a textured heart charm that's perfect if you prefer your jewellery a little more dainty. Abbott Lyon's Oval Link Chain Bracelet however has gotten some rave reviews from shoppers, making it a great choice. One wrote: 'An amazing bracket for layering and great quality too . The best thing is that it easy to put on yourself!!' Whilst another said: 'A very beautiful and strong bracelet. Perfect for every day wear or special occasions!' Some found it a little tricky to wear, with on writing: 'very pretty but falls off constantly and clip that you can attach a charm on is almost coming off already.' However others found it fit great, writing: 'Excellent quality bracelet for my daughter, good price, easy to attach charms to it, good size fit, quick and efficient order and delivery.'

Corrie recasts character for a second time in a year as new star begins filming

A young Coronation Street actor has departed the show, meaning another new face will soon join the cast. Carter-J Murphy joined the ITV soap as Harry Platt towards the end of last year. The character was born in 2016 and is the son of Sarah Platt (Tina O'Brien) and villain Callum Logan. Callum was killed by Kylie Platt before Harry was born, and his body was buried underneath the annex at No.8. After Harry's birth, the body was discovered, and Sarah was hospitalised for postnatal psychosis, having believed that Callum was still alive. Carter-J has only played the role for a handful of episodes, as an amazing opportunity has seen the young star depart the show. It's said the actor has been cast in Matilda the Musical and due to the fact he couldn't juggle the tour and filming for Corrie, he has left. Prior to Carter-J playing Harry, twins Freddie and Isaac Rhodes portrayed the role. Also according to The Sun, an actor called Josh has taken over the role, with his first scenes expected to air within the coming weeks. Carter-J made his screen debut in 2024 in the new Robbie Williams biopic, Better Man, playing a younger version of the singer himself. Another Platt family member was recast earlier this year, with a star called Grace Ashcroft-Gardner taking over the role as Lily Platt. The actress made her debut in a dramatic episode that saw Mick Michaelis (Joe Layton) escape prison and storm Weatherfield High School in search of his daughter Joanie Michaelis (Savannah Pennington). As students realised what was going on, they went in search of safety in locked classrooms. Lily's cousin, Sam Blakeman (Jude Riordan), ran through the corridor and arrived at the door Lily was on the other side of. Sam banged the door, desperate for Lily to open it but she was consumed with fear, meaning she completely froze. In the aftermath of this, Sam struggled with anxiety and panic attacks. The ordeal also reminded him of how his mother Natasha died. In 2022, Harvey Gaskell (Will Mellor) escaped from prison and went in search of revenge on Leanne Battersby (Jane Danson). He pulled the trigger on a gun, believing he was shooting Leanne, but realised moments later that it wasn't her. Sam's mum Natasha later died in hospital. Newcomer Grace has taken over the role from young actress Brooke Malonie, who had played Lily since 2016. More Trending Taking to Instagram last month, Grace shared her excitement at joining the ITV soap. Alongside several behind-the-scenes pictures, she wrote: 'I am so excited to share my news that I have joined the cast of Coronation Street playing the role of Lily Platt!'

Piers Morgan reveals secret Britain's Got Talent judge who was never seen on screen

Ant and Dec were not the original presenters - and it even had a different name she's got talent Piers Morgan reveals secret Britain's Got Talent judge who was never seen on screen PIERS Morgan opened up on what Britain's Got Talent might have looked like if the original format had gone ahead. The TV presenter, 60, became a household name in the U.S after agreeing to take on the role of the "meanie" judge on America's Got Talent in place of the show's creator, Simon Cowell. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Piers Morgan made a huge revelation about Britain's Got Talent Credit: Paul Edwards 4 He revealed that Fern Cotton was first lined up to be a judge Credit: Instagram 4 Fern was eventually replaced by Amanda Holden who was judge with Piers and Simon Cowell (R) Credit: Handout But before finding fame across the pond, Piers was meant to be a judge on the talent show in the U.K, long before the American version was made. Piers shared a vintage photo from the 2005 pilot of a show tested by ITV that would go on to become Britain's Got Talent, but looked very different indeed. In the photo posted to Instagram, Piers is sitting at the judges' desk alongside then host of This Morning, Fern Cotton, and music mogul, Simon Cowell. Piers revealed the late Paul O'Grady was meant to host the show and it was named after him, but it fell through when the late TV star fell out with ITV. "Another amazing pic from my past, also randomly posted on X by someone yesterday.. This one is truly historic… it was the first ever panel assembled for the Got Talent franchise anywhere in the world," Piers began in the caption. "Simon Cowell had come up with the idea of a new talent show, ITV ordered a pilot episode to be filmed, and cast Simon, me and Fern Britton (then presenting This Morning) as the judges." Piers continued:" It was hosted by the late, great Paul O'Grady.. and called 'Paul O'Grady's Got Talent'. The acts sat in the audience and came down onto the stage when it was their turn to perform." He described the format as "hysterical" and how ITV was ready to give it the green light, but then "shelved it" after the row with Paul. "However, Simon isn't one of life's quitters, and a few weeks later he texted me to say he'd sold the rights to NBC in the U.S., they wanted to repackage it as 'America's Got Talent', and he wanted me as a judge on it to play the tough meanie role because he was committed to American Idol so couldn't do it," Piers added. "(He said, 'Piers, I need someone as arrogant, obnoxious and judgemental as me, and your name has immediately sprung to mind!')." Piers Morgan's ex wife left 'fighting for her life' after freak accident as son Spencer reveals hospital pics Piers continued:" A month later, I was on the Paramount movie lot in Hollywood, with a trailer next to David Hasselhoff's, and we started filming @agt." The journalist described America's Got Talent as "an instant smash hit No1 summer show in America" to which he owes his "entire and I owe my entire 20-year career over in the States" for. Piers concluded: "The following year @bgt launched in the UK but with Amanda Holden replacing Fern. That was also a No1 smash hit, and Got Talent has now aired in 69 countries, becoming one of the most successful television franchises in history. And it all started with this pic." Before his death, Paul had confirmed that he'd been lined up to host the show, but hated the original name. He said: "I did the pilot for Britain's Got Talent – which was originally going to be called Paul O'Grady's Got Talent. But I told the producers they were having a joke if they thought I would front a show with that title. "The original panel of judges was going to be Simon Cowell, Fern Britton and Piers Morgan. I was the host. Then when I had the row with ITV I was banned from the studios." 4 Piers credited America's Got Talent with launching his stateside career Credit: Alamy
