✨ 30 ✨ flirty and thriving. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ✨ 30 ✨ flirty and thriving. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME 🥳

The past ten years have been a hot mess. Getting two degrees, our first appartment, my first job, moving 40km away from home, our first house, a burnout, a dog, a break-up, a tinder account, a new appartment and a fresh start all while travelling from pillar to post, maintaining a social life, get enough sleep, pay my bills and remember to make dinner before 10PM. Adulting is weird. Still not sure how I get to be unsupervised all the time. Or how I am staying alive. Soooo ready for those dirty thirties, baby. Bring it. 🎂🎁🎈🎉

Crossing that bridge to my thirties in 3...2... 🙃 But not before getting some old content out of the way that has been gathering dust on my phone for a year. Sorry 'bout that. Normal programming will resume shortly! 😊

Guestpost – Madeline Quaint

Hello Dear Readers of The Ginger Diaries! I’m Madeline blogging over at Madeline Quaint, and I couldn’t have been happier when Nikki asked me to fill in for her while she’s visiting The Big Apple! For one thing, she’s such a lovely, kind, welcoming blogger with great sense of humour and of course, style, she’s also a fellow redhead! Redhead bloggers unite! 🙂

PICT0022ca3s

So you already know my name, but what is my style like? Well, the most important thing is that dressing up is a constant source of inspiration for me. I don’t know about you, but my mood is always influenced by what I wear, so I always try to dress in a way that would make me feel good – happy, romantic, nostalgic, adventurous, creative…

Therefore I’m always on the lookout for strange and original pieces of clothing as well as simple but well cut basics, that can be combined in a comfortable and generally cheerful way. I’m a huge advocate of handmade, locally bought clothes and accessories, as well as second hand shopping, the best places to find treasures for your wardrobe!

PICT0039ca2s

This interesting jacket-like garment came with a handmade dress I bought at a market more than 10 years ago. I hardly ever wear it, still I can’t seem to part with it. It has the air of long gone days, and it reminds me of Venice, of light reflected in the canals and echoing cobblestoned streets… I got the simple black dress from H&M, and it’s the perfect blank canvas for making such a quirky piece wearable in the asphalt jungle of a 21st century metropolis. (If you can call Budapest a metropolis!)

PICT0046ca2s

Sleeves rolled up and collar tucked in, I felt like a Venetian lady transported in time, and that’s a feeling I really like, and not treated to very often. Mission accomplished! I’m definitely not getting rid of this jacket anytime soon!

PICT0026ca3s

Thank you for reading my guestpost! Curtsey! 🙂 

Wearing: 
Overdress: handmade, bought at a market, Dress: H&M, Sandals: Bata, Bag: second hand, 
Necklace: Promod, Leather cuff: handmade from Jojó Art Shop, 
Rings: Promod and a handmade one from Jojó Art Shop.

    I think it's a great outfit for traveling. The plaid a personal favorite, and the dress looks like it would be great for packing and not wrinkling!

    How fun and I like your "redheads unite" comment. Very cute, i think leopard print is one of my favorite trends this season. Nice post.

    What a darling dress! It is almost like a long dress-like cardigan. Its warm camel-ish color is so ready for this fall season. 🙂
    I hear many people shop secondhand but not a lot of people I know shop locally. I should definitely look more into that. Great guest post!

    Lovely post. This jacket is interesting. The buttons at the waist give it a nice shape and the fall of the skirt section is lovely. It definitely has a Venetian feel about it:)

2021... What. A. Year. A break-up in spring. My 2021... What. A. Year. 

A break-up in spring. My life in boxes in summer. Moving into my appartement and returning to my job full time after two years in fall. My first dates in winter. All while living between lockdowns and vaccinations. Four stormy seasons finally coming to an end.

Starting 2022 completely clueless, but with nothing but curiosity and a craving to find out where life will take me in the next 365 days. 

2022, LET'S DO THIS. 🙌

✨HAPPY NEW YEAR ✨
