Oh Primark, we’ve missed you! As the biggest – possibly only – high street fashion store not to have an online delivery service, the retailer has been completely out of bounds for four weeks now.
In anticipation of a total shopping frenzy as the shops reopen, Primark has extended its only opening hours over Christmas – in some places staying open for 24 hours – and as appealing as a midnight spree at the retailer sounds… There must be another way.
With just three weeks left until Christmas, we’ve scouted the hottest pieces to track down in-store before stocks run out because there isn’t a moment more to be wasted.
These include a seasonal red check trouser suit that’s not a want but a need. It would work so well for day-to-night digital engagements throughout the festive period (even if you go business up top, pajamas below the keyboard.)
Or how about a ribbed knit bralet to put a seductive spin on festive knitwear? It’s a trend that’s been on our radar ever since Katie Holmes stepped out in *that* bra-digan set that became an instant sell-out for Zara back in January. It’s a rebellion against this year’s loungewear explosion but it’s still a maximum comfort option.
Speaking of comfort, Primark does not disappoint on the knitwear front this Christmas with a variety of cute cardigans to rotate through the Crimbo Limbo, as well as the chunky sweater vests that are coming for your cosy off-duty looks.
Cream, grey, V-neck, crewneck. Be still our beating hearts. Primark has cable knit tank tops galore this season and we’re massively into it.
So, before you gather your household for an all-nighter at Primark, strengthen your in-store shopping game for a more reasonable hour and scroll down for the only finds you need to know about this Christmas.
