 Necklaces: Primark 
Top: Zara
Trousers: Zara
Sandals: Primark 
In The Algarve, Portugal... 
2nd Look from my holiday is an evening look as it gives a bit more cover up for cooler nights or a windier night as the case was in these photographs! To transform this outfit add a pair of single strap heels for a more classy take. 
The jewellery I am wearing is in fact two necklaces layered, one on the top of another (duh), which immediately makes this one of my statement pieces. I somehow think that these remind me of the dylanlex necklaces but obviously a much cheaper dupe from good old Primark at only 11pounds. 
Both the trousers and top are from Zara, bought in the sale and items I love to easily chuck on as they are lightweight materials and not tight fitting. Linen white trousers,such as these, are definitely a staple item for the summer and hot weather so if you don't have a pair I suggest you get some immediately.
Another bargain from Primark were these double strap sandals at only 8pounds; so comfortable and if you have seen my instagram there are more pictures of the ways I styled them. I love this sandal trend but I don't think it will last very long sadly and therefore the price is a big bonus! 
Tell me what you think of this look guys and thank-you for reading! -apinchofsaffron x

Hat: Vintage 
Top: Next
Shorts: DIY 
Sandals: ASOS 
Backpack: New Look



During my time in the beautiful Algarve, Portugal...
 This is an everyday look for holiday; shorts and a top. But rather than being generic I wanted to switch it up a bit by adding some details. These shorts were in fact some old jeans that I ripped up myself and transformed. I used a lacey floral lining from an old scarf and have sewn these onto the bottom of the shorts which gives the shorts that extra length and I also find that it compliments the crochet bohemian style top. 
This skin coloured top is really comfortable to wear and slightly fitted so it's more flattering. I teamed this outfit with my black backpack which is a great size to fit my camera, a book and some essentials for a holiday. 
Added this wide rimmed sun-hat and strappy sandal/shoes which are also super comfy for a long day in the sun.
