A FASHION fanatic has rounded up her top buys if you're still looking for a New Year's outfit - and they look expensive without breaking the bank.
Ellie Butler regularly shares her shopping hauls and outfit creations with her army of followers on social media.
In a recent video, she bagged a selection of dresses from the high street store and said her buys would make the "perfect last min NYE outfits".
Ellie - the girlfriend of Celtic's Liam Shaw, currently on loan at Wigan Athletic - said: "We've got a huge Zara haul. I've ordered maybe I think about nine party outfits
"Hopefully I've got the outfit here for you...I've got a lot of nice things to get through.
"We've got quite a few black dresses because I feel like everyone loves a black dress."
First up, Ellie tried a £45.99 shimmery velvet dress which has been slashed to £29.99 in the sale.
Despite fearing the material would be "itchy and scratchy", the size 10 WAG insisted it's actually "really soft."
She added: "I am absolutely in love with this. The back of this dress is literally gorgeous and bows are so in right now as well so having a big bow on the back of your dress it'd make a gorgeous photo
"I feel really comfortable in this. I'd be happy to wear it all night."

The blonde beauty then modelled a £35.99 velvet mini dress with sequin detail, reduced to £22.99.
"I'm absolutely in love with this one", she gushed.
"I'm literally obsessed with it. I just love this shoulder detail."
Ellie did, however, notice one design flaw with the frock - the off-shoulder sequin section makes it difficult to raise your arms which could be a big no if you're wanting to dance the night away.
"I feel like this bit could potentially get on your nerves because you
can't really lift your arms up", she admitted.
"But I don't care. I'll keep my arms down if I can wear a dress like this because it's gorgeous.
"I've not got anything like this that's why I think think I like it because it's different."
And a sequin slip dress (£45.99 reduced to £29.99) was another winner as Ellie insisted it "looks expensive".
She added: "If you're not into mini dresses, you want something a bit longer if you've got like a posh event coming up, this could be the dress for you.
"I love this."
Continuing the LBD theme, the fashion fan also bagged a black leather bandeau mini dress, originally £35.99 but reduced to £25.99.
"I feel this is a classic, sexy little black dress that everyone needs in their wardrobe", she insisted.
"There are endless ways that you'll be able to style this.
"I love this one, I feel like this could also look really expensive."
Elsewhere in her haul, Ellie picked up a silver one-shouldered dress on sale for just £19.99, a red bandeau dress she's vowed to wear all year round, and a black zip dress which she hailed as "sculpting and flattering".
Modelling the £35.99 frock, which is reduced to £25.99, she added: "The quality of this one is probably the best quality dress of this haul, it's so thick."
But not everything from Ellie's haul was an instant hit.
The fashionista dubbed a cut-out dress with belt detail (£45.99 reduced to £29.99) as "the most bizarre dress to put on ever".
"You have to undo the belt, it's got like a million hidden zips", she fumed.
"I do like this one [but] it's not really giving 'party'. I feel it's a bit plain.
"It feels expensive. Maybe if you want something that's a little bit more what's the word - is conservative the right word? I'm not sure, but you've not got your boobs out.
"It's not really giving night out for me."
And a £45.99 silver 'tin foil' playsuit, on sale for £29.99, was an instant no because it "felt cheap."

Ellie said: "This does feel really cheap like just in my hands
"Don't hate it, don't love it. It feels cheap but I don't feel like it looks that cheap on. But yeah I'm not a big fan."
