(Cover) - EN Star Style - Gabriella Cilmi once spent 1,700 in a single shopping spree.

The Australian singer loves everything about fashion, and enjoys snapping up the latest trends. She was brought up to be thrifty though, so rarely splashes out on designer items. Instead she likes to trawl stores for bargains, which is why she cant believe she once spent so much in one go.

I recently spent 60 on a leather skirt. I love buying clothes and once spent 1,700 in one shopping session, she divulged. I just got a pair of D&G heels in discount store T K Maxx for 70. If I see something Ill grab it. I once bought a great dress from there for 6.

The star also loves accessories, such as hats and necklaces. She enjoys picking up unusual pieces from different countries, especially as they always make her friends envious.

I went on holiday to Sardinia and bought some lovely jade and Sardinian coral earrings, Im really into my jewellery Im obsessed actually! she laughed. I also once bought a mans hat from Vivienne Westwood but I didnt realise until Id got it home. (C) Cover Media
