Yeah, Yayer.

I'm sure many of you have heard of Yayer before and I have definitely mentioned the website in previous posts - but with it being the official British SUMMER TIME (yay!) there seems no more appropriate time to dedicate a whole post to their beatiful items.

I must admit I found the website through another wonderful blogger, but I just haven't looked back since. It not only has a hugely character-filled vintage section, but a modern section also and a lookbook to show you how to put their pieces together.

Here are a couple of my favourite styles from their Lookbook:



I am especially in love with this second skirt. These bright colours teamed with the retro style go brilliantly with the blazer to create an effortlessly quirky look that even the less brave could pull off. I want to be able to wear this look out tomorrow!

Yayer also has many, many more classic items. (oh gosh my bank account is going to be so very empty)

Vintage loves ♥ :

Colour Patchwork Playsuit - £30.00

Words cannot describe how much I want to own this playsuit. Not only does it look like the most comfortable outfit that would ever float around my curves, the patchwork style is just adorable. I would probably team this playsuit with my extremely retro jellies and my new H&M sunnies. If only it was in my size...dammit.

Levis Fringed Denim Shorts - £25

How much do you love the summer fringe trend?! I think they give these shorts that extra edge that makes them ideal for the festival season.

No Love Lost Cardigan - £30

I know, I know...we are getting further away from the winter months as I type. But that does not make me love this cardigan any less. I adore the bright colours and over-sized cosy fit. Perhaps they will be just right for those summer nights when I want to snuggle up around a bonfire with my friends...

Modern loves ♥ :

Yayer Tribal Bodycon Skirt - £24

I'm thinking that this could be my equivilent to the Lookbook styles above. With a loose-fit black vest and a blazer I think it's very achievable at an extremely reasonable price.

Antique Floral Playsuit - £22

I'm not sure I've ever seen a playsuit more appropriate for summer. I love the neutral body colour. Hopefully it should stop my skin from looking quite as pastey as it actually is. I think it would look great with my gladiator sandals - what do you think?

Accessories ♥ :

Brick Boho Saddle Bag - £18

The perfect summer bag - goes with everything, has bags (geddit?) of character and has a long strap to hang elegantly by your dresses.

All in all, you've gotta give it to them - Yayer are really pulling out all the stops this season. You can get a completely individual style which you can be assured you won't see around every corner as you would with a normal high street outfit and they give you a chance to add that quirkiness that your summer wardrobe really needs.

It's time to start saving those precious pennies, ladies. I know I will.

Primark bled me dry.

Hiii!

Sooo, this morning I spent more money than I really even have. Definitely going to have to budget on essentials now. Oops.

How on earth did I not realise how much good stuff Primark has at the moment?! I'm so glad I went on the Look website last night. After spotting a satchel that I just had to have, I dragged my housemate Sophie into town (well she didn't take much persuasion really) and got some absolute bargains. I'm sure you're already starting to realise that a bargain is one of my favourite things.

Disclaimer - Please excuse my extremely tired, lazy-eyed face - being a student is tiring stuff, y'know.

Jumpsuit - £13

Cardigan - £10

Boots - £19.99 from New Look

I've been looking for a floral jumpsuit that fits me well for ages and who would have thought that it was Primark that came out on top?! It comes in at the waist to give me the shape I need and isn't so long that it completely dwarfs me. BINGO. Aah the perils of being short. The cardigan's going to be just what I need to cover my shoulders until this damn country warms up a bit and it's so neutral that hopefully it will go with almost all of my wardrobe.

I am definitely having a floral stage. And apparently a sailor stage too...

High-waisted sailor shorts - £6 - Primark



AHOY! It's taken me a long time to feel comfortable in anything sailor-like...I don't really like the idea of feeling dressed up. But I really enjoy these. Just like the shorts from yesterday's entry they come in at the waist and float nicely over my problem area butt. I also think they're going to go wonderfully with my new Vestry shoes. Lovely jubbly.

I also went a little bit accessory mad.

 

Socks - £1.50 - Primark

Scarf - £4 - Primark

Cardigan - Marks and Spencer (Hand me down from Mum - thaaanks)

Satchel bag - £7 - Primark

Yes, this is the satchel bag! Absolutely love it. It might not be real leather or a designer brand but it is going to be so well used. My scarf and bag even went with today's outfit -

Cardigan - Marks and Spencer

Scarf - Primark

High-waisted demin shorts - Miss Selfridge

I really do love my Marks and Spark's cardy!

Such a successful day of shopping. Absolutely wiped out now. Probably should do some uni work I suppose...blogging already seems to come first! I have a feeling it's going to be super addictive.

I'll be back later to show you my housemate Sophie's leather-look skirt - she took the plunge and it looks amazing!
