Newfound Love: Minimalism In Fashion

Blogtober Day Sixteen

Hey lovelies!

I'm not entirely sure how this newfound love has come about but I'm really into it! I guess I've always admired the look of a pair of mum jeans, a simple white t-shirt and a relaxed-style blazer as a pretty cool outfit to wear. I've found that even in a work environment wearing smart black jeans, a white t-shirt and a casual black blazer over top is great way to mesh your own style with that of a more professional environment hence creating the slightly annoying term that is: smart casual.

Harper & Harley may have been the blog to officially set off this sudden appreciation for minimalism. I think I might have just fallen for what Sara Donaldson (H&H blogger) calls her "relaxed, chic black, white and grey philosophy". I found that with her oversized knits, statement shoes and cool classic vibes, you definitely cannot go wrong.

Oversized garments are not exactly my forte and with worries that they will make me look bigger, I do tend to go for more fitted items. What is my forte, however, is wearing black and what screams minimalism like an all black outfit! I just think that it is super flattering plus...black goes with EVERY colour so there's no chance of failure.

Sara Donaldson is my inspiration when it comes to wearing this trend, although for her it may be more of a religion or a way of life! In all seriousness though, her tips and tricks on how to style an outfit to create a look that is so effortlessly classy is why I have put all of my trust in her. I hope that I can master this style that is popping up everywhere and, you never know, there may be some minimalistic outfits making an appearance on my blog...watch this space.

Be sure to let me know your thoughts on this style in the comment section down below, I'd love to hear what you have to say! Are you into the Minimalism trend or do you prefer something a little less neutral?

XOXO
