A BBC star has proved she likes a bargain fashion buy just as much as cheap homes after showing off her outfit for a ball.
Homesunder the Hammer’s , 48, is no stranger to cost-cutting renovations on the daytime Beeb show.
And at home, the mum of three – from Dundee – appears to be a fan of savvy buys for her wardrobe too.
In a recent Instagram video, the telly favourite revealed the two cheap items she used to get her ball-ready this week.
Martel popped on a one-shouldered black sequins mini dress and black peep toe heels before showing off her bargain accessories.
She said: “When you realise you’ve got half an hour to get ready for a ball that’s got a theme, black and white.
“I wasn’t fully prepared but I had these £7.99 Amazon earrings in the cupboard.
“This bow from Hobbycraft, I just tied it on. You know, it’s black and white.
“And I’m ready to roll with my £7.99 earrings and a wee bow. Party time.”;
Martel later joked that a “wee spray tan and blow dry”; also “helped immeasurably”;.
The TV star’s clip quickly racked up 15,000 views as fans were left stunned by her savvy look.
One gushed: “Gorgeous as ever, in whatever.”;
A second joked: “£7.99?? Wow, even I can afford to take you shopping!!
“Just shows, though, you don’t have to spend lots to look great.”;
“Stunningly beautiful, as always”;, chimed in a third.
A fifth wrote: “Typically unique style.”;
Meanwhile, a sixth added: “You look so lovely as always,”;
