Helen Flanagan may love the designers, but she may not always be able to afford them.
The actress was seen wearing a 'Giraunchy' slogan T-shirt on Tuesday with a pair of leather shorts and patent pink TopShop heels as she spent her last day in Los Angeles shopping.
Clearly a play on the name of design house Givenchy, the 23-year old's wardrobe choice comes fresh after wearing a Burberry imitation heart-print shirt from Topshop too.

However, her choice of top would put her in touch with the fashionable zeitgeist for the play on words of designer houses has become a popular feature on slogan T-shirts of late.
Comme des Garçons had their name altered for streetwear label Comme Des F Down which first garnered attention when A$AP Rocky started wearing the brand.
Similarly, C.O.I (Conflict of Interest) have brought out a range of T-shirts with the phrase 'Ballinciaga Harlem' emblazoned on the front as well as Helen's T-shirt with 'Giraunchy' in a similar font to the French fashion house's logo.

These urban creations cost around $60 (approximately £38) while their designer namesakes would set the buyer back ten times the amount.
However it looks like Helen was willing to splurge on an actual Burberry bag from the Prosum collection called The Big Crush Heart bag, featuring a mix of leather and pony-skin.
The brown and tan bag costs around £1250 but is already sold out on the British fashion house's website.

Other fans of the Burberry heart print are Harry Styles, Victoria Beckham, Donna Air and Miles Kane, while Serena Williams has been seen carrying a tote bag from the Big Crush collection.
Helen has clearly been picking up a few American streetwear buys during her short stay in Los Angeles, where she has been undertaking a few meetings with modelling and acting agencies in order to break in to Hollywood.
And it looks like she's trying to call in a favour from Charlie Sheen who reportedly told her to get in touch next time she's in LA.
A source told the Daily Star: 'Helen is trying to get in touch with Charlie. She sent him an email almost as soon as she arrived, but he hasn't replied yet. When he does she has plans to set up a meeting with him and perhaps even land a part in his TV series Anger Management.'
Where's the rest of it? Helen wore a T-shirt dress and not much else as she caught a flight at LAX on Tuesday
