Alannah took to her TikTok page to share a look at the new Groovy Chick nightwear range, which includes fleecy pyjama bottoms and adorable baby tees.

“OMFG!” she captioned her video, after spotting the items in her local Penneys – the Irish name for Primark.

However, the PJs are also available in England, and can even be booked for Click and Collect on the Primark website.

The fleecy PJ bottoms come in at £14, while the sleep T-shirt is £12 and the baby tee is £9.

There’s also a Groovy Chick Snuddie – Primark’s version of the Oodie – for £19.

And if it’s accessories you’re after, there’s a cute tote bag for £4 and a wash bag for £6.

People were quick to take to the comments section of Alannah’s video to weigh in on the new arrivals, with many planning immediate trips to the store to snap them up.

“OMG I NEED! WHAT THE FRIG FROG?!” one hilariously shouted.

“The way I went straight online to order this on click and collect,” another added.

“At 32 I’m still buying this,” a third admitted.

“I know I have the handbag somewhere and recently found a frame!”

“Ahhhhh I had the bedding haha!” someone else said.

“Omg omg I neeeeed,” another wrote.

As someone else said the range “took me back when a was a kid”, another said they “had a whole ass groovy chick bedroom growing up”, adding: “I need this!”

“All I want for Christmas this year is this range please and thank you,” someone else said, tagging a mate.

While another sighed: “I would have loved these back in the day!”

The best selling Primark nostalgia pieces

IF it's nostalgia you're looking for, look no further than Primark.

Primark’s Miffy pyjama range left many shoppers feeling incredibly nostalgic recently.

Fashion fans claimed their ‘inner child was screaming’ when they spotted High School Musical and Hannah Montana sets on shelves.

90s fashionistas were left beaming when they spotted that leopard print maxi skirts had come back on trend.

But the new baby tees gave some shoppers ‘awful flashbacks’ to their teens.

And millennials were left divided when they spotted that ballet flats were back on shelves.

The Groovy Chick character was created in 1992 by Bang on the Door, and millions of branded items were snapped up by shoppers – from bedding to bikes.

It’s the latest retro range to come from Primark, after they released Toy Story, Hello Kitty and Sesame Street items.

Forget dating apps, I met my fiance after hiring him as a handy man – we had our first date that night

A WOMAN has urged other women to ditch the dating apps after meeting her beau in a very unconventional way. 

Haley Millstein, 29, and her fiance Hymie, 35, met when she hired him to put some furniture together through a handyman app in 2021.

The pair were total strangers before their first encounter but are now due to be wed.

“I hired him because he looked cute in his picture,” Haley admits.

“I was living in New York City at the time and needed help assembling a dresser. 

“He later admitted he was exhausted and on his way home, but when the request popped up with my picture he decided to take it because he also thought I was cute. 

“I was on a work call the whole time he was putting my dresser together, but he waved me over to tell me they sent two of the same parts, so he couldn’t finish it. 

“He circled which part I needed on the instructions and wrote his number down next to it. 

“He told me to text him when I got the right part in. 

“Before he got downstairs, I texted him thanking him and asked if he was single. 

“He said yes and we met up for drinks later that night.”

The pair have been in a relationship ever since their impromptu date and got engaged two years later in July 2023.

“I could have never imagined our relationship going this far,” Haley tells Fabulous.

“Our wedding song is the acoustic version of Biblical by Callum Scott.

“The lyrics say: I didn’t know that I’d fall so hard, then my feet left the ground.

“That whole song describes our relationship perfectly.”

Relationships in numbers: The most common way to meet someone

YouGov looked into how Brits find love, and your best bet is at work or through friends according to the data.

  • Through work – 18%
  • Through friends – 18%
  • While out and about – 15%
  • Other – 11%
  • Online dating platform – 7%
  • University or higher education – 6%
  • Dating app – 6%
  • School – 5%
  • Shared hobby – 5%
  • Family – 3%
  • Face to face at an event – 0%

Nearly 70% of individuals find exclusive and romantic relationships thanks to platforms like Tinder and Hinge, according to new research by Forbes

But a growing number of singletons report finding dating apps make them feel more DIS-connected. 

“I own my own real estate consulting company and Hymie started his own handyman repair company,” Haley adds.

“He also still does Task Rabbit on the side. 

“And needless to say, he builds my (our) furniture for free now. 

“Ladies, forget the dating apps!

“Try Task Rabbit.”

Roma brutally sack club legend Daniele De Rossi just FOUR games into new Serie A season

DANIELE DE ROSSI has been sacked by Roma just four games into the new Serie A season.

The club legend returned as interim boss in January following Jose Mourinho’s exit.

De Rossi ended up leading Roma to a sixth-place finish, as well as the semis of the Europa League.

And he was handed a contract to become head coach on a full-time basis in June.

But a dismal start to the new season has seen Roma pick up just three points from their opening four Serie A matches.

Indeed, the capital club are yet to win a single game so far after three draws and one defeat.

De Rossi was sent off for dissent in Sunday’s 1-1 draw with Genoa and given a one-game touchline ban.

But he won’t get the chance to serve it after being brutally axed by Roma’s owners.

It is not clear at this time if and when its products will stop being sold in the UK.

Last year, Tupperware Brands, a 78-year old firm, warned it may go bust unless it could quickly raise new funds.

The brand has been facing slowing sales as it tries to target a younger audience.

The company’s shares have fallen by more than 50% this week after reports it was planning to file for bankruptcy.

In a statement to investors, Tupperware’s chief executive Laurie Ann Goldman, said: “Over the last several years, the company’s financial position has been severely impacted by the challenging macroeconomic environment.”

She added: “As a result, we explored numerous strategic options and determined this is the best path forward.

“This process is meant to provide us with essential flexibility as we pursue strategic alternatives to support our transformation into a digital-first, technology-led company better positioned to serve our stakeholders.”
