✨ 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! 😊

Shopping My Closet: Hot Pink Cardigan

top: Massimo Dutti • cardigan: Zara • pants: Zara • booties: via Spartoo.be • cross body bag: Kate Spade • Glasses: Kinto

If we would be real life friends, and you’d rummage through my wardrobe like many of my girlfriends do, you’ll notice I have a seemingly endless collection of simple Zara cardigans.  I have them in every basic color, from black to white, and one in a striking hot pink. One day in late January, I remembered I still had a few euros left in my PayPal account after buying two Christmas presents on Etsy earlier. Zara was having their famous after-sale and these cardigans were going for a mere €6 a piece. I was feeling brave that day, very brave and bought the pink one I’m wearing in the photos, instead of my usual suspects black or navy. I wore it twice (the first time and the second time) before it disappeared into the depths of my wardrobe (being the bottom of my colored cardigan pile) to be forgotten and unworn. 

Sales are always hit or miss with me. It’s big love between me and my purple French Connection dress and the Massimo Dutti olive-colored dress from my last post, but other items remained unloved for long stretches of time. When the PR team behind Solden.be reached out to me and wanted to work on a post about sale shopping, I opened my closet doors and went through each pile, trying to remember what was bought with a coupon or on sale. Somehow while throwing things over my shoulder like a wild teen trying to decide what to wear to tonights party, this cardigan, striped top and pink cardigan landed on the floor in each others proximity. Ta-dam: an outfit was born. With the cargo pants being a big favorite of mine (long time readers might remember it from 99% of last Springs outfits) and the misfitted cardigan this outfit was perfect for my February outfit series. My boyfriend didn’t like the look so much, and maybe he was right when he said it would’ve worked better with a pair of blue jeans. But hey, these cargo pants are awesome and if I want to wear them, I’m wearing them.

Those who I’ve made curious about Solden.be, can check out their website or brand new blog Daily Solden. The principle behind the website is easy: if you live in Belgium and enjoy online shopping, you must always check the website for coupon – and sale codes, before you check-out. I’ve made it my routine, and I hope you do too!

    Love the pink cardi with the stripes! 🙂 The majority of my wardrobe is sale purchases too, although I am trying to get more use out of what I wear and rotate around instead of picking the same suspects all the time 🙂 Crazy how easily things can get lost at the back of the wardrobe!

    Love the cardigan! Bright colored cardigans are my favorite! I love getting things on sale — it’s like finding buried treasure!

    The olive is an unexpected color pairing and it would have worked with blue jeans too, but I think this way is cute as well. You look cute in a bold color.

    Love those cargo pants! I used to wear cargo pants all the time, but they were baggy and ill-fitting, unlike these smart ones.

    Sales are hit or miss with me too, but this pink cardigan is so pretty. Definitely a winner!

    Love this pop of pink on what is a dreary day in Indiana (and I don’t even like pink, that’s what winter is doing to me). I like it with the cargo pants, and the boyfriend already has your next outfit picked out for you. Good work, team!

    Cardigans are a recent obsession of mine. In fact, I never really appreciated their versatility and necessity until around the time I started blogging! I love this hot pink one with the cargo pants! I have a hot pink cardigan and cargo pants–I’m gonna have to steal this look when I can wear my regular pants again.

    Sometimes I’m not sure if I love something because I love it, or if I love it because it was such a good price! I think this cardigan is a great purchase, and it’s good to get a little outside your comfort zone too!

    It’s a nice cardigan though, you should wear it more often! Having said that, I have one of those basic V-neck H&M sweaters in pink which I haven’t worn in ages…

    I wish I had enough clothes to dig through and discover forgotten treasure. When I return home for a visit from Seoul, I will know that feeling when I look at everything I packed up and left behind!

    Anyway, I would avoid a color like that if I saw it, but seeing it in this outfit really complements it perfectly and you miiight have converted me into a believer. Maybe.

    Wat een fijne schoenen! Ze zien er uit als de iets draagbare versie van de pistols, ideaal voor een platte schoenen meisje zoals ik zelf. Mijn pistols komen alleen buiten op dagen die vooral bestaan uit zitten en weinig rondwandelen 😉

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 ✨
