“I sent a picture to my mum and she said I look like a dead bird and obviously it does not go with this outfit, but I think this is so, so nice.
“Love the colour, love the fabric. This is like it’s Zara quality.”
Rebekah bagged the Rita Ora Faux Fur Jacket which is available online and in stores for just €42.

THE HISTORY OF PENNEYS
THE Penneys brand grew from humble beginnings on Dublin’s Mary Street, where it opened its first store in 1969.
Known as Primark outside Ireland, the company was the brainchild of Garfield Weston, who hired Dubliner Arthur Ryan to make his vision reality.
Penneys branched into the UK in 1973 with its first store opening in Derby. The UK now has 191 Primark stores in total.
However, the Penneys name could not travel to Britain as the American retailer JC Penney had the right to use the name in the region.
And in 2006, the expansion into Europe began with an opening in Spain, followed by the Netherlands, Portugal, Germany, Belgium, Austria, France and Italy.
Primark went Stateside for the first time in September 2015, with the opening of a store in Boston. There are now 27 stores in America with branches in Florida, Brooklyn, Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
The retailer’s opened its largest store in Birmingham in 2019.
It spans five floors and features Primark’s biggest beauty studio to date, a barbers and three restaurants.
