The 39-year-old regularly shares her charity shop and Vinted hauls with her more than 33,000 followers on TikTok.
In a clip, which has racked up more than 11,500 views, Holly proudly shows off her latest haul.
“Look at it, it is so gorgeous,” the savvy bargain hunter, from Manchester, told Whats The Jam.
Holly then pointed out a number of aspects that hinted towards the dress being from a more premium brand, including the cut and extra material.
The thrifty shopper recently found another Maje dress in a charity shop worth almost £400 – and managed to snap it up for just £5.

“So again, I’m guessing from the research I did on the last dress, this is probably, you know, a £300 pound dress, maybe more – £8.”
Users flocked to the comments section to share their reactions.
