Grüner Veltliner – Austria's flagship white – is popping up in more shops than ever, and I'm here for it.

Shoppers are racing to Sainsbury's for ‘jaw-dropping' summer dress that looks great on all shapes & sizes
SHOPPERS are racing to Sainsbury's to snap up a "jaw dropping" summer dress, perfect for beach holidays. Now that summer is finally upon us, and with temperatures soaring again this week, many of us are likely making plans for trips abroad. 3 3 And what better way to get yourself excited for summer than treating yourself to a new dress. Sainsbury's Tu is one of the best-loved brands on the high street, and is constantly wowing us with its stylish but affordable fashion. From cute dresses to on-trend work attire, the supermarket fast-fashion range always hits the mark, and its new summer collection is no exception. One dress that fashion fans have been raving about in particular is the Yellow Striped Tie Detail Midaxi Tea Dress which is priced at £28. Taking to TikTok, fashion influencer Christie Mac (@christielouisemac) recently modelled the chic dress in a video that has racked up over 269,000 views. The fashionista, who uses her social media channels to share plus size friendly buys, looked stunning in the bright yellow dress, which she paired with white sandals and a large wicker beach bag. Christie modelled a size 20 in the video, but the dress comes in a wide range of sizes, from size 6 to size 24, so there's something to fit every body. The Tu dress features puff sleeves and an elasticated waist, so its perfect to wear at the all inclusive buffet on holiday. It also has a sweet tie detail at the neckline, and is perfect for dressing up for garden parties, or dressing down for the beach. Sainsbury's said: "Perfect for summer occasions, our yellow tea dress has been designed with puff sleeves, an elasticated waist with shirred detailing, finished with a tie fastening at the neckline for a touch of elegance. "Cut to a flattering, midaxi length. "Wear with suede sandals and golden accessories." The dress is available in stores and can also be purchased on the Sainsbury's website. Fashion fans flooded the comments section of Christie's video to share their love for the dress. One person said: "The yellow dress is stunning!" A second person said: "That yellow dress made my jaw drop. "Stunning!" A third person said: "That yellow dress is beaaaaautiful." A fourth added: "You look amazing in the yellow dress." Is supermarket fashion the new high street? DEPUTY Fashion Editor Abby McHale weighs in: The supermarkets have really upped their game when it comes to their fashion lines. These days, as you head in to do your weekly food shop you can also pick up a selection of purse-friendly, stylish pieces for all the family. Tesco has just announced a 0.7 per cent increase in the quarter thanks to a 'strong growth in clothing' and M&S has earnt the title of the number one destination for womenswear on the high street. Asda's clothing line George has made £1.5 million for the supermarket in 2023, 80 per cent of Sainsbury's clothes sold at full price rather than discounted and Nutmeg at Morrisons sales are also up 2 per cent in the past year. So what is it about supermarket fashion that is becoming so successful? Apart from the clothing actually being affordable, it's good quality too - with many being part of schemes such as the Better Cotton Initiative. A lot of the time they keep to classic pieces that they know will last the customer year after year. Plus because they buy so much stock they can turn around pieces quickly and buy for cheaper because of the volumes.

Warning issued to Sainsbury's customers after two years of Nectar points stolen
Experts have issued a fresh warning to Sainsbury's customers after a shopper reported having two years of her Nectar points stolen. This is Money revealed earlier this year that Nectar had introduced a 'lock' feature on its loyalty card scheme, meaning any account can be freezed until the customer decides to spend their reward points. The announcement came after an investigation revealed that 12.5 million Nectar points worth nearly £63,000 had been stolen from our readers over the period of a year. And just last week, another customer reported on social media that 3,000 points had been stolen from her account after they were used in a Twickenham branch. She posted: 'Someone has stolen 3,000 of my Nectar points? 'I have never been to Twickenham in my life and I have been saving these points for two years to help pay for Christmas. Please look into this.' The claims have prompted cybersecurity experts to urge customers to take a fresh look at their accounts in order to prevent potentially criminal activity. 'It's especially important to monitor accounts more often just before Christmas,' Jake Moore, Eset's Global Security Advisor told The Sun. 'This is usually when criminals target accounts with points that have been accumulated over the year.' He added that accounts should be checked 'frequently to detect and report any unauthorised actions promptly'. Only primary users of the account should be able to lock and unlock spending on their Nectar accounts with the new locking feature, while additional collectors will only be able to collect points. It was brought in to allow customers to start saving their points again without fear of them being stolen by fraudsters. Thankfully most of the customers affected in This is Money's investigation were refunded by Sainsbury's, which owns Nectar. A Nectar spokesperson today told MailOnline: 'Nectar is one of the UK's biggest loyalty schemes, with over 23 million members. 'The security of our customer accounts is our highest priority and the proportion of those impacted by fraud each year is very small. 'We have a range of measures which detect, and in many cases prevent fraud, including our Spend Lock feature. 'Our Nectar Helpline team are on hand to support any customer who suspects they may have been a victim of fraud.'
