Many of us will own or recognise the iconic Wide Strap Vest Tops from Zara.
But now, Primark has released a brand new range of vests that look practically identical.
Not only are they strikingly alike and come in very similar colourways, but they are half the price of the stylish buys from Zara.
The popular vest tops will set shoppers back £11.99, but luckily for those on a budget, you can nab Primark 's new alternatives for only £6 - yes, you heard that correctly.
So if your purse feels tighter than ever before and you fancy saving yourself £5.99, you'll need to get your shoes at the ready and head down to your nearest Primark store, and fast.
Posting on social media, employees from the Primark store in Trafford, Manchester, gave fashionistas a close-up look at the new vests.
Alongside the short clip, the employees wrote: 'New £6 second skin vests.'
The stylish vests, which feature a scoop neck and a sleeveless design, are sure to be a summer essential for many.
They can be dressed up or dressed down for a variety of different occasions and are available in baby pink, white, brown and black.
While they'll look perfect paired with denim shorts and trainers for running errands, they're also great dressed up with a flowy maxi skirt and sandals for summer days.
Fashion fans 'need' Primark's new £14 linen trousers - there's two colours to choose from and they're great for spring
Not only this, but with these versatile tops, you can even add a blazer, pair of trousers and loafers for a smart office look.
And that's not all, as they can also be layered with a jumper or bomber jacket for stylish outfits all year round.
Why Primark is great for looking expensive on a budget
By Clemmie Feildsend, Fabulous Fashion Editor
AS someone who's no stranger to grabbing a last-minute outfit from Primark for a night out, it's about time that celebrities started catching on too.
For as long as I've been heading out, Primark has been my go-to for those 'I have nothing to wear' moments, rushing in at the last minute to find something perfect.
And I'm definitely not alone - on any Friday or Saturday night, you'll find plenty of shoppers doing the same thing, right before closing time.
But no matter what, Primark always delivers.
Now, Rita Ora is leading the charge, showing that you can snag a designer-worthy look without spending a fortune at high-end stores.
While Rita's not rushing in last minute for a red carpet outfit, she's proving you can achieve the same high-impact style for much less.
Looking stunning in her tailored suit alongside her mum Vera, Rita fit right in among the other A-listers dripping in Prada, Dior, and Victoria Beckham - if anything, she looked even better than some of the guests at The Fashion Awards.
With Myleene Klass and Roxy Horner already jumping on the Primark bandwagon, I'm sure more stars will be following suit soon enough.
Fashion fans beam
The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @ prmrktraffordpalazzo, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 154,100 views.
Not only this, but it's also amassed 12,300 likes, 39 comments, 1,502 saves and 4,796 shares.
Social media users were impressed with the purse-friendly tops and eagerly flocked to the comments to share their thoughts on the high-street dupes.
One person said: 'It's giving Zara dupe.'
Another added: 'Love the pink and brown.'
A third commented: 'Love these.'
Meanwhile, someone else gasped: 'Oh my god fireeee.'
Whilst one fashionista beamed: 'They're so cute.'

EXCLUSIVE What your foot shape says about you: From 'thinkers' with 'Greek' toes to 'sensitive' people with 'Roman' digits, how your trotters reveal what you're really like

Many people will go to a palm reader to see what lies in their future, but increasingly people are visiting feet readers to learn more about themselves. While palm readers can tell your fortune - feet readers study the shapes and positions of toes to analyse a person's personality and behaviour. The belief is our toes and soles give a glimpse into our character and motivations, much like palm-reading. Meghan Markle, for example, toes show that she's 'bossy' while the Princess of Wales ' show that she is 'big shoulders for other people to cry on', according to the UK's leading foot reading expert Jane Sheehan. So, what do your feet say about you? According to experts, there are seven most common types of feet and these include the Roman foot, Peasant foot, Egyptian foot, Square foot, Greek foot, Stretched foot and the Simian Foot. And as Meghan leans into her new boho chic lifestyle, MailOnline have explored whether those with a particular foot shapes have differing qualities. Inbaal Honigman, celebrity psychic, and Cas Paton, founder and CEO of have revealed what your feet say about you as a person. THE PEASANT FOOT WHAT IS IT? This foot is defined by the big toe, long toe and middle toe being short and of equal length. To accommodate for the lack of balance caused by the shortness of these three toes, peasant foot is structurally 'flat'. Often there's no obvious cause for flat feet. It might just be the way your feet are. Sometimes flat feet run in families. INBAAL SAYS: 'This foot belongs to a pragmatist. Fuss free and down to Earth, this shape suggests a happy person that's low on stress and high on energy. This is a passionate, capable individual.' RELATED HEALTH CONDITIONS: Despite aiding stability, having fallen arches - or a flat foot - can affect the bodies alignment which increases the risk of ankle, knee and hip pain. Normal feet are designed to keep the entire lower body in the proper configuration when you stand or walk. Flat feet do not provide the same foundation for healthy posture. As the foot collapses toward the ground, the lower legs tend to rotate inward. This inward rotation can affect the entire leg, including the hips, leading to long-term leg and back pain . THE ROMAN FOOT WHAT IS IT? This is the most common and is characterised by inward pointing toes and, much like the peasant foot, the first three toes are of similar length. People with Roman foot typically have high arches allowing for greater acceleration and ease when changing direction suddenly. This is due to stiffer form limiting supination and pronation (two terms describing how your weight is distributed when you walk or run), allowing the foot to adapt and move quicker. INBAAL SAYS: 'This foot belongs to a thinker. Spiritual and devoted, this shape indicates a patient person who might take things to heart but won't talk about it. This is a reserved, successful person.' RELATED HEALTH CONDITIONS: People with Roman foot are however more prone to 'hammer toes', which is caused by the weakening of the muscles surrounding the toe. People with Roman foot are more prone to this due to already having an imbalance in muscles and ligaments that keep the toes straight. Symptoms include pain when moving or putting on footwear, swelling or a burning sensation, and - in severe cases - open sores on the toe. Treatments include exercises such as picking up marbles with your toes, switching to footwear with low heels and wider fit at the front, and shoe inserts to reduce pain. THE EGYPTIAN FOOT WHAT IS IT? Egyptian foot is distinguished by a long big toe, followed by the other toes being on an incline. Such feet are usually longer and narrower than any other shapes. INBAAL SAYS: 'This foot belongs to an empath. Idealistic and intuitive, this shape reveals a peaceful person who is pro-peace visionary. This is a low-tech, anti-war person.' RELATED HEALTH CONDITIONS: Despite being the foot type least likely to suffer from arthritis, bunions and load-dependent pain, this narrow structure allows for greater supination when walking. Supination means that when you walk, your weight tends to be more on the outside of your foot. If you have excess supination, where you bear too much weight on the outside of your foot, it causes stress on that part of the foot when you walk or run. You can check for supination by looking at the soles of your shoes: if you are affected, they will show uneven wear on the outside part. This uneven weight distribution can cause excess strain on your ankles, which in turn can lead to shin splints, calluses, or bunions on the outer side of your foot, and pain in your heels and balls of your feet. THE SQUARE FOOT WHAT IS IT? This type of foot is characterised by all five toes being of equal length, giving a broad, firm base. A wide ball and narrow heel are typical of this foot structure. INBAAL SAYS: 'This foot belongs to a grown up. Dependable, responsible and ambitious, this shape suggests a methodical person who doesn't panic when things get tough. This is a wealthy, mature person.' RELATED HEALTH CONDITIONS: The wide-to-narrow structure of the foot can lead to increased pressure on the toes and ball. This unequal distribution of weight can result in persistent metatarsalgia, a condition where the ball of the foot becomes painful and inflamed, if incorrect footwear is worn over a significant period of time. Athletes who partake in high impact sports might be particularly prone to metatarsalgia, although this is not always related to the shape of the foot. THE GREEK FOOT WHAT IS IT? Also known as the flame foot, this type of foot is defined by a protruding second toe and is one of the most common foot types, according to the survey. This shape is caused by a structural 'abnormality' in the metatarsals, which are long bones connecting the toes to the back of your foot. INBAAL SAYS: 'This foot belongs to a Jack of all Trades. Versatile and curious, this shape reveals a multi-talented person who can turn their hand (and foot) to anything. This is a lively, tactful person.' RELATED HEALTH CONDITIONS: With this foot type the first metatarsal bone is shorter than the second, which can cause more weight to be put on the thinner second metatarsal bone. This can result in pain in the arches of your feet. Pain in the arches of the foot can be eased at home using simple measures such as supportive shoes and physiotherapy exercises. THE STRETCHED FOOT WHAT IS IT? Stretched feet, or splay feet, are characterised by separated toes caused by wide set metatarsal bones. The forefoot is broadened and the metatarsal bones splay fan-shaped. INBAAL SAYS: 'This foot belongs to a social butterfly. Original and inventive, this shape indicates a party animal who loves to get to know people and share their lives. This is a confident, adaptable person.' RELATED HEALTH ISSUES: People who have splay foot generally experience load-dependent pain while walking and standing because of the way the weight is distributed throughout the foot. It can also lead to painful corns, calluses and sores developing, which can interfere with the rolling mechanism of the foot. As splay feet are extra wide, it can be difficult for people with affected feet to find comfortable shoes. THE SIMIAN FOOT WHAT IS IT? 'Simian' refers to features relating to, or resembling monkeys or apes. The main characteristic of Simian Foot is that the big toe leans towards the little toe. In some cases, this type of foot can have qualities of the other foot structures. INBAAL SAYS: 'This foot belongs to an extrovert. Creative, receptive and generous, this shape reveals an individual who can't stand to be bored and has a great imagination. This is a fun, exciting person.' RELATED HEALTH ISSUES: Due to the natural inward curve of the big toe, people with this type of foot are more likely to develop bunions. As such, some experts advise from refraining narrow and pointed toe shoes, such as a typical high heel.

Princess Eugenie makes rare appearance in a backless swimsuit in sweet snap with her sons

Princess Eugenie yesterday shared a series of sweet photographs with her sons to mark World Ocean Day. The eco-conscious mother-of-two, who divides her time between Portugal and London, took to Instagram to share the adorable images of herself with August, four, and Ernest, two, at the seaside to mark the annual celebration. In one image, she played with her children in the ocean while donning a backless swimsuit and a pair of white linen shorts. Eugenie, who has taken up environmentalism in the hope of helping future generations, held Ernest's hand as August went on ahead into the water. The 35-year-old captioned the post, 'The ocean is the greatest wonder of the world. Celebrating @unworldoceansdaytoday and everyday.' She has a track record of being environmentally aware and has been an ambassador for the Blue Marine Foundation since June 2021. The royal is an avid campaigner of environmental issues and even had a plastic-free wedding to her husband Jack Brooksbank in 2018. Eugenie, the daughter of the Duke and Duchess of York, also shared two stunning images of beachside scenery in the post. The final snap showed her youngest son Ernest enjoying a stroll at the shore while dressed in a warm jacket and wellington boots. Eugenie has continued to show her dedication to the environment on multiple occasions, including her 2023 trip with the Solent Seascape Project, the first attempt to actively restore the ocean in the UK. At the time, Eugenie described how being a mother made her want 'to do more' for her children and future grandchildren, adding that she hopes her son August will one day take up environmentalism too. During the trip she wasn't afraid to get stuck in and helped scientists clean hundreds of oysters before they returned them to the sea. Princess Eugenie also avoids using any single-use plastics at home and has already started educating her children about climate change. She previously said, 'My son's going to be an activist from two years old, which is in a couple of days. Everything is for them, right? Every decision we now make has to be about how August is going to be able to live his life.' It comes after Princess Eugenie opened up about the 'sense of shame' she felt when she first saw her scoliosis scar - and revealed how she 'trained her brain' to think it was a 'cool thing' instead. In a rare, wide-ranging interview, the royal mother-of-two also discussed how her Sarah Ferguson raised her to be proud of her scar after she went underwent surgery at the age of 12. In 2002, Queen Elizabeth II's granddaughter had rods inserted into her spine after she was diagnosed with scoliosis (curvature of the spine), and told that she would need corrective surgery. After the eight-hour operation, Prince Andrew's daughter spent three days in intensive care, a week on a spinal ward and six days in a wheelchair before she was able to walk again. Speaking to The Telegraph, Eugenie revealed she had a 'sense of shame' when she couldn't wash or dress herself and was shown her scar, which runs down her neck and spine. However, she claimed her mother, the Duchess of York, removed all the stigma about the scar and helped her see it in a positive light. Eugenie said, 'She was amazing. She'd ask me if she could show it to people, then she'd turn me around and say, 'my daughter is superhuman, you've got to check out her scar'. 'All of sudden it was a badge of honour – a cool thing I had. It trained my brain that it's ok, scars are cool. 'It became a positive memory, a part of me, that I could do something with in the future. I could help heal other people.' After a tumultuous few months after surgery the young Princess had to be turned gently in bed and wear a brace. Eugenie, who has since became a patron of Horatio's Garden in 2019, which helps nurture the wellbeing of people after spinal injury in beautiful gardens in NHS spinal injury centres, often speaks about the stigma surrounding scoliosis. Last year, she posted a sweet tribute to her mother on Instagram, explaining: 'My mum caught my scoliosis early and I was lucky enough to get the help I needed at 12 years old. 'I thank her so much for that and also thank her for the confidence to be proud of my scar. 'She removed all the stigma around having scoliosis for me by confidently showing people what I'd been through and it took all the fear and anxiety out of being different at such a young age. I am forever grateful and wish everyone to be proud of their scars.' Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine which can cause uneven shoulders. Many people who suffer from the condition struggle to find clothes that fit due to the body shape it creates. Although treatment is not always necessary for the condition, some people who develop scoliosis can be required to wear a back brace to stop the curve worsening as they get older. In cases where surgery is required, patients may undergo a spinal fusion operation; a procedure that can last up to seven hours. Writing for the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital Charity previously, Eugenie said, 'In 2002, when I was 12 years old, I was diagnosed with scoliosis (curvature of the spine), and told that I would need corrective surgery. 'This was, of course, a scary prospect for a 12-year-old; I can still vividly remember how nervous I felt in the days and weeks before the operation.' The Princess continued: 'During my operation, which took eight hours, my surgeons inserted eight-inch titanium rods into each side of my spine and one-and-a-half inch screws at the top of my neck. 'After three days in intensive care, I spent a week on a ward and six days in a wheelchair, but I was walking again after that.'
