    Louis Widmer 3-in-1 Cleansing Lotion Review

    Louis Widmer 3-in-1 Cleansing Lotion Review

    The world of beauty products is completely new territory for me, I’m not gonna lie! I’ve only recently started testing the some of the beauty products that I receive for my blog. In the past I’d much rather rather pass them on to my girlfriends, often in exchange for outfit photos or quick instagram shots. It was a win-win situation! With my beauty stash growing significantly over the last few months I thought I might as well give a few of the products a go…

    Travelling In Style

    Things are finally winding down in this household. I’m back to work without the foresight of vacation and I haven’t started prepping for the Holidays just yet. With a laid-back week ahead of me I found some time to edit a few of the outfits we’ve shot this Fall and I want to kick the series off with this travel look! If there’s one rule in travel dressing it surely must be “comfort above all”! …

    Let’s Talk About My Blazer Obsession

    Let’s Talk About My Blazer Obsession

    Me and my blazers, it’s a never-ending love story. I have about ten. I think. Maybe more. And I wear them with love. This season I really wanted to join in on the Prince of Wales trend, but didn’t want to drop the cash for a large winter coat in the check print. I like the classic style, but I wasn’t sure if the trend was just another Instagram-one-day-wonder and would feel very “October 2017” soon. Instead I …

    Sothys Skincare Review

    Sothys Skincare Review

    A beauty post on The Ginger Diaries. What a wonder that you get to live to see this great day! I have another wonder I’d like to talk about: Sothys skincare. Sothywho? Sothys truly is a hidden gem among the skin care brands of this world. Let me prove my point. Everyone, Raise your hand if you’ve ever heard about Babor Skincare. Now raise your hand if you’ve ever heard about Sothys before. I imagine a lot less hands …

    AD | Tips For Buying The Perfect Bag For Hand Luggage Travelling

    On almost all of my city trips I travel with hand luggage only. Check-in luggage usually means extra costs, more waiting time at the airport, extra weight to carry,… . Just a whole lot of hassle that I can’t be bothered with! I’m currently using a very old Converse Bowling Bag as my carry-on bag. It’s big enough to keep an outfit or three, my camera gear and basic necessities. The back pocket of the bag is useful to …

    Shania Twain Would Be Proud

    Shania Twain Would Be Proud

    From a young age on I’ve loved crime series such as the overly suspenseful CSI Miami and the quintessential British show Midsomer Murders. On Netflix, I devoured the first two seasons of How To Get Away With Murder (which may or may not have had something to do with Jack Falahee) and watched pretty much all crime documentaries within a few weeks after signing up. I know, I’m weird. Since I’m still waiting for Netflix to release S3 of …

    A Four Day Itenerary For Copenhagen

    A Four Day Itenerary For Copenhagen

    Copenhagen happened by accident. I know, I know. How do you accidentally board an airplane to Denmark? But you have to believe me. One moment I was in rainy ole Belgium, the next I was in freezing ole Denmark. It all started when my friend B, who I went to elementary school with, asked for advice for her solo city trip. I think she was doubting between Dublin, Barcelona and Copenhagen and needed help deciding. I shared what I knew, but didn’t have …

    My Levis 501 Mom Jeans

    I never thought dressing like my mom in the eighties was going to feel this good. Dang it, these high-waisted straight-legged jeans are awesome. In the past year or so I really became a jeans wearer and I expanded my collection from one sad pair of blue jeans to about five. I love how much more wear I get out of my tops, blouses and sweaters now! Most of my jeans are a skinny fit and I have grown tired of wearing the same style&…

    The Bernadette Cardigan

    dress: Scapa | cardigan: Street One | shoes:Aldo | bag: Michael Kors Sutton I used to be obsessed with dresses. A few years ago, I had more dresses than there are days in a month and I was playing with the idea of doing a ’30 days of dresses’ kind of thing here on my blog. I never got my boyfriend so far to take outfit pictures every single day for 30 days and by now most of those dresses are gone too. However, I…

    Shopping for White Lace Tops & Blouses

    top: Vila | jeans: Mango | shoes: Aldo | bag: Hilfiger (c/o SKM) I have this thing with white lace, crochet and embroidery. Currently I have three white laces dresses and one white lace blouse hanging in my wardrobe and there’s a – hopefully – gorgeous crochet top on its way to my doorstep. It’s safe to say I have an addiction, haha. Finding that perfect lace design in a good quality fabric was not easy, though. I’ve been wanting and …

    A Pop Of Pink

    top: & Other Stories | jeans: Levis | sneakers: Vans Old Skool I love the shift in nature between summer and fall. That moment in time where the lush green leaves gently fade to yellow, the sunlight gets less bright and the air gets crispier. One of my favorite places to go at the end of summer is the heath, because while the flowers are withering and the greens go brown, the purple bushes on the heath go into full bloom. It’s a truly magnificent&…
