The Streek GR Kust had been on my must-hike list for a while and I'm so glad I finally went and did it!

Infamous for its high rise buildings and concrete boardwalks, this trail will show you that there is in fact a very different side to the Belgian coast too. The trail alternates between beach, dunes and woodland, making for a varied view along the way. Don't forget to circle back to the boardwalk sometimes for a much deserved waffle or ice cream! 😉

Ps: the trail is 103km in total. I stopped earlier to meet my friends in Knokke.

I am probably supposed to make this a sentimental post about how messy 29 was and how I had to come back to myself at 30 and figure out how to do life alone. But I'm currently rushing to get to work and I have zero inspiration as to what to say. I just wish that 31 will be (at least a little) less rocky than the past two years, so that I may finally have a chance to feel the world around me. Goodness knows I need it. Also, buying a dryer would be nice. 

Virtual 🥂 and 🍰 for all of you!

Home sweet home

Those of you who follow me on twitter already know this, but I did not make it to New York. I’m sure you can guess of the reason: Irene. If I wasn’t in the Big Apple, then where have I been? Dans la cité d’amour: Paris! We’ve spent 7 days up there so get ready for a huge load of photos and stories. I’ll post the photos on my blog as soon as I can. Pinky promise. But for those who really can’t wait: the unedited ones are already on my brand new facebook page, go ahead and take a little peek!

As you might have noticed, I also changed around the colours and fonts of the blog. How do you like it? These soft, peachy colours are just that tinsy bit more me than the previous colorscheme.

Take a closer look at the sidebar. Notice anything new? Yes, I welcomed my first sponsor: Ravenous creatures. I was so excited when Kimberly sent me a mail saying she loved my blog and wanted to be a part of it. She was so kind to offer all of you a 20% discount on all the great vinatge pieces in the shop, just use the code “Ginger” at the check out. Go ahead and check Ravenous Creatures out!

Coming Soon
– In The Mix
– Sponsor Spotlight
– Blog buttons
– Page Updates

I'm a blogger myself, so it's not hard at all finding me around all the fashionistas communities and my blog's facebook page.
    Hugs , kisses and good luck with blogging!!!
