I’m a style expert & there’s no reason to spend £100s on posh homeware – B&M has exactly the same dupes for less
BEING house proud can be costly.
From shelling out for the property itself to factoring all the interiors you will need to make your home presentable, you’ll soon find yourself coming up short.
But furnishing our homes with top brands, with top end price points, isn’t a necessity anymore.
You can hit bargain shops like B&M to get the designer look for less.
Here, Fabulous’ Fashion Editor Clemmie Fieldsend shows you how to add the finishing touches to your humble abode with dupes that won’t break the bank.
DISPLAY SHELF
These days you don’t need to have a full library to fill a book shelf, you can add ornaments, candles, plants - whatever you like.
A posh shelving unit from John Lewis will set you back a whopping £799, but this stylish double from B&M is just £55 in the sale.

BASKET
Beit a washing basket, something to pile your blankets in or even to cover up and ugly plant pot, a fancy raffia basket has multiple uses.
The White Company sell their large oval baskets for £95, but you can save £98 by taking a trip to B&M for their large straw tub dupe that's now £1 in the sale.
Bargain.

LIGHT
Getting the right lighting in any room is vital.
It sets the tone and is a focal point of the room
Habitat is known for their amazing lighting, however it's not cheap.
Their wicker lampshade is £85 whilst B&M’s version that's pretty much the same is a bargain for just a tenner.
Meaning you can keep £75 but have the same look.
CLOCK
John Lewis dropped their never knowingly undersold promise in 2022 due to a hike in their prices.
Despite the department store being a go-to for years for all things home, fashion and beauty brands like B&M would do the same product for a better price.
And this clock is no exception.
B&Ms traditional wall clock in cream is a must have at just £5.99, especially when the John Lewis version costs £49.99.
ORNAMENT
Adding final finishing touches to your home like cushions and ornaments will make any house feel more like you.
Classic ornaments like this artichoke from B&M are the perfect addition to a table or shelf, and for £8 you could add too.
Plus, Dunelms version is £25 so even if you bought two of the B&M style you’d still make a saving.
CANDLES
Make your guests feel at home and make your staying in experience that little bit more special with a fancy candle.
