She revealed that prices had gone up since she was last in Turkey and recommended people to haggle instead of taking the first price shops offered.

The bargain hunter first showed off a pair of black and white Adidas Sambas she bagged for just €25.

While they usually cost £90, she compared them to a friend's who had the real day and found there was zero difference between them.

Halle also picked up a gorgeous pair of Christian Dior sandals in beige for just €10 as well as 15 pairs of Nike socks for just €5.

She also treated herself to some new jewellery including a dupe of the Cartier Love ring with diamonds across the band for €10.

"I love it and quite frankly, don't have the money for the real one," she added.

And that's not all, she managed to pick up a gorgeous silver Rolex watch for just €35 which she said was great quality for the price.

She then showed off the haul of designer bags she got, and said she got them for a great deal buying two for €50.

The first she picked up was a black Marc Jacobs clutch and a Louis Vuitton shoulder bag with red piping and the classic monogram fabric.

"I fell in love with this. It's the red that sold it to me," she said and got a card wallet to match for €5.

The clip posted to her TikTok account @went viral with over 490k views and 21k likes.

People were quick to take to the comments obsessed with her haul.

Spotting Fake Designer Goods

SPOTTING the real deal from a knock off is harder than ever.

These days fake clothes, bags and jewellery are almost identical to the real thing making it harder to spot the difference.
Here, Clemmie Fieldsend gives you tips on how to spot if your buys are counterfeit or legit.


Bags:

  • Real designer bags do not come with authenticity cards
  • Tags should not be attached to the bag, these usually come with the receipt or are tucked into the packaging
  • Designer bags usually have a serial number
  • The bag should look and feel high-quality. Check for even stitching, tidy material, no frayed edges and clear colour matching

Watches:

  • A genuine high end watch will feel heavy due to high quality materials
  • The second hand movement on the watch should not be rigid
  • The model name and serial number on a fake may be used across all of their pieces rather than individual ones
  • Check for the official branding and compare with a genuine model if you can
  • The fine details won’t be as refined, including placement and spacing etc

Sunglasses:

  • The lenses on designer shades should be of superior quality. Know what you're buying. Classic Ray-Ban designs, for instance, are made from glass.
  • Fake frames feel lighter than real ones
  • Watch out for stiff or loose hinges
