IKEA shoppers go wild over $49 item that's the 'perfect dupe' of popular $149 version: 'OMG yes I need it'
Shoppers are obsessing over a $49 item from IKEA that's an affordable alternative to a hugely popular version costing more than three times the price. The new SKOGSSALLAT bathrobe has landed in stores, with customers racing to get their hands on the stripy design, which comes in two multi-colour options: red-pink or green-white stripes. The lounging piece has been compared to Australian lifestyle brand Hommey's best-selling robes, famous for their vibrant stripes, which cost $149. The affordable bathrobe features an adjustable belt and pockets - handy for warming your hands, or keeping personal belongings such as keys and a phone. The robes are so stylish you can wear them as a bathroom essential at home or as loungewear for a poolside cocktail. It's made with soft terry cotton on the inside and out, allowing you to wrap yourself in warming comfort after a bath or shower. The playful robe with red and pink stripes and a blazing blue belt has been flying off shelves, with shoppers pointing out the affordable price point. There's also a green and white robe with a vibrant red belt, perfect for tying the belt below the stomach or higher up depending on what you prefer. The playful robe with red and pink stripes and a blazing blue belt has been flying off shelves, with shoppers pointing out the affordable price point 'Obsessed with this robe and even more obsessed with the price tag,' one said. 'Wait, is this a Hommey dupe?' another asked. 'OMG yes I need it,' one shared. 'I love colours. The towel material is pretty nice. Excited to take this to the pool and beach,' another added. Perfect for lazy evenings or by the pool, the robes make a fun wardrobe addition. 'With SKOGSSALLAT textile bathroom accessories, I wanted to make daily routines a bit comfier and more fun with playful designs for the whole family to enjoy,' Darja Nordberg, the designer behind the robes, said. 'I certainly didn't hold back on colour. The vivid stripes offer a modern take on iconic IKEA stripe patterns, and the products team up perfectly with SLÅNHÖSTMAL towels. 'I hope these functional accessories bring a sense of joy and well-being each time they are used.' The robes are part of the new SKOGSSALLAT range, featuring $5 slippers, a $15 bath poncho with hood, $5 toiletry bag and $4 eye mask.

The $14 item from Kmart that's a 'perfect dupe' of wildly popular $200 version: 'Pretty good'
A $14 must-have item from Kmart has been hailed the perfect 'dupe' for a $200 version sold by a popular homeware brand. Aussie shopper Celine Clark was recently walking through a Kmart store when she spotted an instantly recognisable item on the racks. Sharing her bargain sleepwear find, the fashion content creator declared that she'd 'been waiting for the day that Kmart came out with a Hommey dupe'. 'About damn time,' Celine said in the video. Hommey is selling the Sleep Pant and Sleep Shirt featuring a distinct striped pattern, each sold separately for $99, totaling $198 for the set. The Melbourne lifestyle brand is known for its colourful sleepwear, along with stylish items for everyday living - including quilt covers, cushions, robes, towels and more. Shoppers who can't fork out hundreds of dollars are in luck as Kmart is offering a similar-looking sky-blue pyjama set with pinstripes for a fraction of the price. Celine was most surprised by the price of the flannel sleepwear. 'I mean, for $14 for like a dupe. I thought this was pretty good,' Celine said. Aussie shopper Celine Clark spotted the Family Matching Printed Flannel Pyjama Set, $14 (left) in Kmart. It was reminiscent of the Hommey Sleep Pant, $99 and Sleep Shirt, $99 (right) pictured here in the Iced Chocolate Stripes version The fashion content creator proceeded to 'try on' the blue striped sleepwear set, praising it as a 'cosy' flannelette. The Aussie shopper was also impressed by the 'nice' and 'long' length in the pants. 'They're really warm. I love the colour palette,' she raved. Celine did however note that the sizing ran on the bigger side - and that even though she'd selected a small, it was 'quite stretchy in the waist'. 'I probably could have gone with a smaller size if they'd had it,' she said. Celine, who regularly shares videos of her fashion buys on her social media account, said during her shop, she also stumbled upon the same pyjamas - but in the Kmart kids' section. Both the Kmart Family Matching Printed Flannel Pyjama Set, $14 (left) and the Hommey Sleep Pant, $99 and Sleep Shirt, $99 in Stripes (right) feature full-length pants, long sleeves and a distinct pin striped pattern She explained that she later realised the PJs were part of a 'family matching' set, meaning they were also stocked in women's, men's and children's sizes. 'If you have a family, how cute, having matching pajamas,' Celine said in the video. For a family of four, the price point of the Kmart pyjamas means that the entire household could be kitted out in the same matching nightwear outfit for under $60. 'C'mon guys, $14 I just can't get past it,' Celine said at the conclusion of her video. 'I just thought that for $14 I just had to share. 'Kmart coming through with the goods. Am I surprised? No.' The video has racked up over a thousand likes with the comment section filled with replies from excited shoppers hoping to nab the winter buy. 'These are so cute!! Love this colour, running to Kmart,' read one reply. 'I need these,' added another. 'Grabbing one,' chimed in a third. The latest sleepwear dupe comes over a year after eagle-eyed Kmart shoppers spotted a pair of satin pyjamas that closely resembled a popular pair stocked in Peter Alexander. Shoppers at the time noted that Kmart's $25 Long Sleeve Top and Pants Satin Pyjama Set in a navy colour with white piping detail were the spitting image of a far pricier set stocked at the designer sleepwear retailer.
