I’m a fashion superfan & visited the world’s biggest Primark – there’s a winter must-have but some of it annoyed me

She pointed out her favourite winter must-haves as well as a few items she suggested shoppers avoid.

Alexx said: “I’m not going to lie, I have been really disappointed with Primark in the last six to 12 months.

“It’s just not been the same. I used to really enjoy going to Primark a couple of times a year and getting all your knickers, your socks, your pyjamas, getting some little bargain but it hasn’t been the same for so long.”

She drove to Birmingham’s massive Primark to look at what was in stock.

FROCK YES

I hated my ‘saggy’ £14 Primark dress so fixed it with cheap hack, it looks great

WORK WEAR

I was told my work outfit was ‘inappropriate’ for showing ‘too much flesh’

HOT MAMA

I’m a mom & work in scrubs, people can’t believe my ‘fire’ bikini transformation

My boyfriend dumped me over my ‘inappropriate’ Halloween costume

THAT’S THE SPIRIT

I’m plus size & found the perfect jumpsuit from Asda – it’s just £22

“This corduroy shirt, I really really loved. I hate the way they styled it but I really really liked it.

“Gorgeous chocolate colour, the quality was there. I think wearing this with just some leggings and some Uggs would look really really nice in the autumn.

“I also spotted the corduroy shirt in cream. I was so tempted to pick this up.

“I’m actually a bit annoyed at myself for not picking up this in the chocolate and the cream now I’m looking back.

“Because the quality of these were really really nice and yeh £20 as well which I thought was quite expensive for Primark.”

She then moved over to the coats, where she found several incredible winter coats to recommend.

Alexx said: “They had these quilted looking coats. I actually think this would make a really nice, cosy dog walking coat.

“Obviously you don’t have to wear it for dog walking but that’s the kid of vibe it was giving me.

“The quality of it was really, really nice. £28 so again pricer for Primark, although it is a coat, so I suppose that is to be expected.”

Next she showed off a black leather style jacket.

She said: “This is something you’d pick up in Zara. Black aviator jacket. The quality was really there with this one.

“£35 – it did have a good weight o tit. it was nice and thick it would definitely keep me warm.

“I just loved it more when i tried it on. I just din’t think this looked like a Primark jacket. I think they did really, really well with this one.”

There were also plenty of shackets on display in a range of colours and prints.

The influencer said: “Really disappointed with the quality of these. I was quite liking this grey one but when I actually felt it, it was so thin. As you can see £18.

“I feel like it just defeated the whole point of a shacket for me.”

The shackets weren’t the only thing that were disappointing quality.

The YouTuber said: “They also had some of the Zara bodysuits.

“They had some of their’s however they were so see-through, so thin.

“They weren’t double lined like the Zara ones so – I wouldn’t recommend those.”

Next Alexx moved on to the shoes where she found options to love and some that she wasn’t so keen on.

She showed followers a pair of silver kitten heel sandals and said: “Guys you know me – I’m always going to show you something that I don’t like as well.

“These are giving aunt Sylvia at a wedding vibe.”

Then she showed an entire wall of Ugg dupes.

She said: “I was actually wearing my Uggs on this day so it was quite good to see the comparison.

“I will say obviously the quality just isn’t as good, like the fur on the inside isn’t as nice. But for £6 you get the same sort of vibe.”
