Great style on a post-Christmas budget

By Rochelle Symons in Christmas, News, Top Picks on Monday 27th December, 2010

We hope everyone had a lovely Christmas! We hear the National Lottery created 25 new millionaires on Christmas eve – was anyone lucky?

If, like me, you didn’t win (or remember to buy a ticket), are avoiding even glancing at the bank balance, but still don’t want to miss the sales, I thought I’d make a shortlist of the best priced clothes, shoes and accessories on the site.

My first pick is this F&F Faux fur snood. Not just because it’s in the sale.  But because there are often times when you’re glamming it up on a night out and a scarf just wont do!  Snoods are the perfect solution – and not just because they were a major trend this year. Practical, fashionable and at under a fiver – affordable is always a win in my book!

Next up is the Maxi Dress – another big trend this year, and for once one that suits everyone.  Versatile, comfortable, and after a Christmas lunch where I could have wiped the floor with Homer Simpson in an all you can eat contest, the maxi has no waistband so hides a multitude of sins. Seen on everyone from Nicole Richie to Claudia Schiffer and Mischa Barton, the maxi is a trend that will last long into 2011.  My three favourites are below, but there’s plenty more on the site.

Knee-high boots have been huge this season, and as we’ve been noticing, everyone from Kate Moss to the ladies here at Tesco Clothing HQ have been opting for the stylish alternative to wellington boots to beat the blizzards!  These F&F biker boots go great with everything and at just £20 won’t break the bank.
