Simplicity



Minimalism is not a style, it is an attitude, a way of being. 
It's a fundamental reaction against noise, visual noise, disorder, vulgarity. Minimalism is the pursuit of the essence of things, not the appearance.
–Massimo Vingelli

Couldn't have said it better. I've made attempts at dressing less "boring" or "simple" many times. 
Though it can be different and fun, I find myself resorting back to my timeless, understated pieces. 
I feel most confident and comfortable, a win-win in my book, when I'm dressed in solid 
colored knits and sweaters. If you know me, I don't like to stand out. No thank you, I'll be just 
fine going about my business, quietly. Wallflower much? Absolutely. This doesn't mean 
I don't appreciate prints and noise, I'll have my rare moments when I'm feeling unusual, but I just love 
a clean, raw, solid, classic, understated outfit. Easily overlooked, but appreciated when noticed. 



Eyeing these two watches by Uniform Wares. I've yet to invest in a good watch, because 
I haven't had any luck finding the one, until now. Beautiful aren't they? First one is $600 something. 
Second one is $300 something. Love the first one, but my wallet says no. Like the second one, 
really do–it's more affordable–but I feel like I'm just settling. I'm going to give it more thought, even though 
I already know I would not spend above $600 for a watch. So really, there is not much thought to give...
