Fashionista goes to extreme lengths to nab the viral Molly-Mae Zara jacket… some say she’s taking things too seriously
A DESPERATE fashion fan has left the social media users baffled after revealing what she was ready to do to bag the viral Molly-Mae Zara jacket.
Earlier this year, mum and former Love Island star, Molly-Mae Hague, caused a stir online after sharing a snap of herself rocking a stunning leather jacket from Zara.
The £60 item very soon became viral and style lovers immediately dashed to shops to bag their own one.
But many, like TikTok user Libby Whalley (@libby_whalley), didn’t act fast enough and couldn’t find the jacket in their local store.
However, that didn’t stop Libby from finding a way to nab the sell-out item – she was ready to go to extreme lengths to buy the aviator style jacket.
The shopper was so keen to get it, she and her pals jetted off to Spain, where there was still stock available.
”When the Zara jacket is out of stock in England so you fly to Barcelona to buy it,” Libby chuckled in the video.
Luckily, the efforts paid off, as the group of mates managed to purchase one each.
But while Libby and her friends might be happy about their new addition to the wardrobe, people on social media were slightly concerned.
Some reckoned the pals had taken things too far, with one writing: ”Its never that serious lol [sic].”
Another person agreed, adding: ”it’s not even nice.”
A third noted that this jacket was no longer special, as every other person has purchased it.

”Selling mine everyone and there dog has it.”
”Also saw 200 girls wearing it,” someone else had seen enough of it.
If you like Libby have been struggling to find the jacket, keep on reading – there’s one that a shopper was convinced would replace the Molly-Mae’s version.
Ellie Butler is the childhood sweetheart of Celtic’s Liam Shaw – currently on loan at Morecambe – and regularly shares her shopping buys with fans.
In a recent YouTube clip (@ellxbutler), she revealed she had done a huge Zara haul – picking up some pieces from their new spring arrivals.
And a leather bomber jacket was the big winner with Ellie revealing she is “obsessed”.
She said: “I hope this suits me because this will be so nice. We’ve got a leather bomber jacket.
“I feel this could potentially be the new Zara jacket that’s going to be trending.
“Oh my god, I’m actually in love with it.
“I’d definitely size up if you want it oversized. How gorgeous is that. I’m actually obsessed.”
The faux leather bomber jacket is priced at £59.99 and available in sizes S-XXL.
It’s already sold out in a medium with “few items left” in other sizes.
Ellie added: “This could be worn so many ways.
“Absolutely run to get this jacket before it sells out. The quality of it is unbelievable.”
