Sophie Ellis-Bextor is addicted to internet shopping.

The 'Murder on the Dancefloor' singer is trying to stop buying clothes and accessories online because she is spending hundreds of pounds a month.

The 30-year-old star said: "Nowadays, I mainly buy online. I love Urban Outfitters and Net A Porter, but I think I need to start calming that down a bit.

I wear vintage and high street. I still have things I bought 10 years ago.

"You go, 'Wow, £400 for a dress!' Then you get acclimatised and start thinking, 'Hmm, £250, that's not bad...' But it's still a lot of money."

Despite being in the public eye for nearly a decade, Sophie claims she's only just started to develop her own personal style.

She explained to Company magazine: "I've always loved fashion, but lately I've got more confident about pushing the boundaries and realised that style isn't always about looking pretty, it can be edgy too.
