The Boohoo Bandage Double Strap Midi Dress is made in a figure-hugging bandage fabric and looks rather similar to House of CB's viral The HourGlass dress.
It's form-fitting silhouette accentuates your curves, while the sweetheart neckline and double strap detail add a dash of sophistication.
It is simply perfect for a cocktail party or a night at the club, and designed to turn heads - at only a fraction of the price.
The dress is currently only available in Chocolate and Rose.
But the best part is that the Boohoo dress is currently on sale for just £20 - a huge difference to The HourGlass dress which costs £169 - giving you a massive saving of just under £150.
But if you still feel like splashing out for a very special occasion you better be quick because House of CB say their bandage Collection is a limited edition.
Whichever you choose - team yours with big hair, high heels, bold lip – and you'll feel like a million dollars.
Meanwhile, a popular supermarket has launched a £20 dupe of the £11k Birkin bags that Victoria Beckham & Olivia Attwood love – and it comes in 2 colours.
And if you're not willing to fork out for a Labubu - which can fetch a whopping £70 online - there's a budget-friendly alternative you can get in your local B&M.
The cost of hotels and flights is already expensive, so we know you want to save cash when it comes to luggage too.
Primark adds brand new Sol De Janeiro dupes to its beauty aisles and they're perfect for keeping you smelling sweet on holiday too
And people are rushing to Tesco to pick up their new suitcase & it's a dupe of pricey Rimowa but more than £1,000 cheaper.
We also have the perfect Crocs dupe for your summer- as a discount supermarket's Summer Clogs sell for a mere £3.99.
This is an eye-watering £46 less than what shoppers would find on the Crocs website.
Plus, Aldi's new Japanese-inspired skincare brand is said to be a dupe of Tatcha – it's 90% cheaper but was it as good?
How to look chic on a budget
Fashion stylist Gemma Rose Breger, and beauty journalist Samantha Silver revealed how you can make your outfits elevated without spending hundreds of pounds. Don't ever spend on designer denim: River Island ''always has such a great selection of fashion-forward jeans that follow the current trends''. The high street retailer offers a great range of sizes to fit UK 6 - UK 18, and three leg lengths - and prices start from an affordable £25. There are no rules for jewels: ''Pick up something at a car boot sale, or charity shop, scroll on Vinted & eBay, snap up something from the clothing section in your local supermarket when doing the food shop or check out high street clothing stores.'' Don't forget the pre-loved sites: With a rising number of second-hand sites, such as Vinted and Depop, there's no excuse for not buying - or selling - pre-loved garments. Gemma, for instance, has managed to get her hands on chic Chanel sunnies for a mere £17.
And finally, our Beauty editor tested Aldi's 7 new beauty buys all for under £5.

Boden's autumn collection has arrived and these are the best items to buy now

These stylish new Boden pieces are the perfect excuse to update our autumn/winter wardrobes With the end of summer fast approaching, now is the perfect time for a new season style overhaul. And shoppers will no doubt be earning compliments with Boden's latest edit of autumn staples – the must-have pieces that'll bring our existing wardrobes bang up to date. First up, is the check trouser. Ditch the tailored shorts for these £99 statement bottoms. Ankle grazers aren't going anywhere this autumn, and we love how perfectly they pair with the on-trend ballet flat. Boden's Canonbury Tailored Trousers are a straight leg style. Next, the cutesy fruit that's still holding ground in the fashion world. Embrace the cherry trend with this Natalie Embroidered Jumper - which is ideal for keeping us cosy as the weather cools. The relaxed crew neck number comes in at £129. Several shoppers have raved about Boden's cherry knit, with one saying: 'It's as adorable as you imagined. Just love the vibrant colour and look!' But someone else added: 'Weird drop shoulders make this very unflattering. Shame as I thought it was bright and fun.' Other fashion retailers offering the fun fruit print include River Island with its Cream Knitted Embroidered Strawberry Cardigan, which costs £46. Or, get the look in a more subtle way with House of CB's Evelina cream cardigan from ASOS (£75). It's the perfect antidote to grey skies and chilly mornings ahead. The latest Boden jackets are perfect for standing out this season. We're wearing this Chunky Chevron Knitted Jacket with wide-leg jeans as summer transitions into autumn. With its rainbow stripe pattern and straight shape, the £159 knit is already 'selling like hot cakes' - according to the brand's website. Finally, no autumn wardrobe is complete without berry shades. Boden's latest range is full of the season's hottest hue and its Anita Ponte Shirt Dress (£129) has been designed to 'skim' over the body's natural curves. One delighted reviewer said: 'I have never received so many compliments about a dress before, as I have when wearing this one. It's very flattering. Makes my waist look more defined than it is and doesn't show any lumps or bumps - it seems to magically skim over them instead.' However, someone else was less pleased, saying: 'This was a lovely dress just not right for me as the material was thicker than I expected.' Boden shoppers can currently save 15% when purchasing new styles online. All they have to do is enter the code: T3D7 at checkout.

Spice Girls wish Geri Halliwell-Horner a happy birthday as singer turns 53

The girl group rose to fame in the 1990s and were behind nine UK number one singles including Wannabe, 2 Become 1 and Say You'll Be There. Taking to social media, Victoria Beckham, who was known as Posh Spice, posted a birthday message on her Instagram story to celebrate her former bandmate with a photograph of the two together with Baby Spice, Emma Bunton. Bunton shared a collage of photographs including one at Halliwell-Horner's wedding with the caption 'Happy Birthday to my beautiful friend. Love you to bits, have the most gorgeous day'. Melanie Brown, known as Mel B or Scary Spice, shared a photograph of the two with the caption 'Happy Birthday ginge!' while Melanie Chisholm, known as Sporty Spice, shared a selection of photographs of the two and the pop group. Also joining in on the celebrations was Halliwell-Horner's husband, the former Red Bull Formula One team principal Christian Horner, who posted a photograph of the pop star with the caption 'Happy Birthday to my amazing wife'. He also shared a photograph of Halliwell-Horner in a white swimming costume standing in front of the sea with a message that said 'Birthday vibes'. This comes after Horner was sacked in July as the Red Bull team principal after he was accused by a female colleague of 'inappropriate behaviour'. He denied the allegation. His dismissal came 17 months after the allegations were made during which he had been twice cleared of the claims by an internal investigation with the Formula One team's parent company, Red Bull GmbH. Brown previously said the Spice Girls rallied around their bandmate as she went through a 'really tough' time. Ginger Spice married the former Red Bull Boss in 2015 and shares a son with him, Montague George Hector Horner. She also has a daughter, Bluebell Madonna, born in 2006, with former partner, screenwriter Sacha Gervasi. In recent years she has stepped away from music to focus on writing children's fiction, including the Rosie Frost series.
