Lately, shoppers have been bagging serious bargains in the form of wardrobe staples and more dressy items.
Now, Dunnes Stores are selling the ultimate pair of jeans.
The Gallery Wide Leg Seam Detail Jeans are retailing for €30, and are available in sizes 8 to 18.
The jeans feature a prominent seam up the sides and at the bottom of the legs.
In the official item description on the Dunnes Stores website, fashion chiefs said: “From Gallery, these jeans feature contemporary seam detailing and a flattering, relaxed wide-leg fit that sits at ankle length.
“With classic five-pocket styling, they offer a versatile approach to casual dressing. Gallery is available exclusively at Dunnes Stores.”
They come in a distressed washed denim style, making them perfect for pairing with a range of items.
Shoppers can add a fancy or dressy top for a dinner date or event, wearing it alongside some heels for some added chic.
Or, pair it with an oversized hoodie for a relaxed and casual outfit.
And the retailer has the best pieces to wear with the jeans, no matter the occasion.
Shoppers are loving a new “contemporary” knitted waistcoat that’s also perfect for spring.
The Gallery Lucia Square Neck Waistcoat is available in stores and online now.
It is priced at just €30 and comes in sizes 8 to 18.
Dunnes said: “This longline waistcoat from Gallery is designed with a modern square neckline and a button-through front.
“It features wide straps and two faux welt pockets, blending modernity with traditional.
“Matching items available; sold separately.
“Gallery is available exclusively at Dunnes Stores.”
And to complete the look, the retailer is selling some must-have sandals for the warmer weather – and they’re a dupe of a huge brand.
Birkenstocks are known and loved as the ultimate summer shoe with celebs like Kendall Jenner and Hilary Duff sporting them.
HUGE SAVING
Dunnes Stores bosses have released their own Birkenstock dupe for a fraction of the cost.
It looks like the Birkenstock trend is here to stay for another summer, so if you’re finally ready to jump on the trend, now is your chance.
The Buckle Footbed Sandals are available online and in stores across the country.
Not only do they look effortlessly chic, but they’re also extremely comfortable to wear all day.
The dupe sandals come in the signature Birkenstock taupe colour, black and khaki.
They feature a brass buckle like the original which can be tightened or loosened for a comfortable fit.
Dunnes Stores chiefs said the sandals are very versatile.
They said: “These smart buckled sandals feature a contoured leather insole, making them super comfortable for all day wear.
“Wear yours with everything from denim to dresses.”
The dupe sandals are €15, while the luxury Birkenstock brand can set you back €113.
Available in sizes 37 to 42, the dupe shoes are expected to sell out quickly.
THE HISTORY OF DUNNES STORES
DUNNES Stores opened its first store on Patrick Street in Cork in 1944 – and it was an instant hit.
Shoppers from all over the city rushed to the store to snap up quality clothing at pre-war prices in Ireland’s first ‘shopping frenzy’.
During the excitement, a window was forced in and the police had to be called to help control the crowds hoping to bag founder Ben Dunne’s ‘Better Value’ bargains.
Dunnes later opened more stores in the 1950s and began to sell groceries in 1960 – starting with apples and oranges.
The retailer said: “Fruit was expensive at the time and Ben Dunne yet again offered Better Value than anyone else in town.
“Over time, our food selection has grown and that spirit of good value has remained strong.
“Now we offer a wide range of carefully-sourced foods from both local Irish suppliers and overseas.”
The retailer’s first Dublin store opened its doors in 1957 on Henry Street and a super store on South Great Georges Street was unveiled in 1960.
They added: “In 1971, our first Northern Irish store opened, and many others soon followed.
“Expansion continued in the 1980s in Spain, and later into Scotland and England.”
Dunnes now has 142 stores and employs 15,000 people.
