A FASHIONISTA has revealed she’s found the perfect knitwear dupe in Primark – and it’s £56 cheaper than the pricier version.

On a recent shopping spree, the 26-year-old – from Glasgow – hit her local Primark to pick up an autumn essential.
The Boxy Knitted T-Shirt, priced at £11, comes in sizes XXS to XL.
Monique snapped hers up in a neutral oatmeal colour, but the knitwear is also available in grey.
Primark bosses say it has “the cosy feel of a knit piece with the freedom of short sleeves and a relaxed fit”.
They added: “Made from a soft, knit fabric, this T-shirt offers a relaxed yet stylish fit, perfect for any casual occasion.
“The neutral tone makes it versatile and easy to pair with your favourite jeans, skirts, or shorts and, featuring short sleeves and a classic crew neckline, it combines comfort with timeless elegance.
“The knit texture adds a unique touch, ensuring you stay comfortable and chic all day long. Ideal for layering or wearing on its own, this knitted T-shirt is a must-have addition to your wardrobe!”
Delighted with her buy, fashionista Monique couldn’t help but compare it to her & Other Stories’ version – which is £56 more expensive – that she’s already wearing in a short clip.
The Alpaca-Blend Knitted Top, priced at £67, is currently sold out in the oatmeal colour.
So it’s the perfect time to pick up Primark’s bargain dupe.
Monique said: “I went shopping the other day and picked up some really good bits on the high street for autumn.
“All of these pieces are such a good price so I thought I would share with you guys. So first up is this little knit from Primark.
“I have this one on from & Other Stories and it’s basically identical.
“So this was £11 and the one I’ve got on was around [£70] and I think if you’re looking for this style but you don’t want to spend [£70] this is a great alternative.
“Literally looks the exact same and I’m sure they’ve got loads of other colours in these too.”
Model and content creator Monique previously told the Scottish Sun how using TikTok has funded her jet setting lifestyle.
After seeing viral success from her fashion posts, she said: “It’s funded my full lifestyle for a couple of years.
“Holidays, I recently bought a new car, I’ve been loads of places.
“I was in America last year with my family, I’ve been to Paris, Dubai. I went on a brand trip with my agency to Ibiza last year so social media has given me so many opportunities that would not usually be there.”
And TV fans may recognise the brunette beauty from reality show The Agency: Unfiltered which returned for a second season on BBC Scotland at the start of the year.
The new series once again followed Aquarius Creative, Scotland’s largest influencer agency, its founders Kirsten Cameron and Amy Moore, and their clients.
In just one year, series one and two of the show have now reached a combined total of over 1 million streams.
