Lately I've felt so cluttered and overwhelmed by everything so I decided that my goal for this summer is to cut down & simplify; cut down on possessions, attitudes & perceptions, style of dress, everything. Try to live simply.
Who says there is only one time per year when we can make a resolution?
Over the past month, I've also noticed a gradual shift in my style... into a more basic version of what I used to normally wear. I've gone from bold striped shirts (i love lines!) and tanks to basic one color pocket tees and jeans or a simple skirt (but of course I can still wear a flower print dress now then!).
By using somewhat neutral colors and unusual folds or seams in the garment I can get a perfect simplified version of my everyday wear! Details like simple (flat) tiers in skirts, the lines of the pockets on tees, the cut of the garment all incorporate lines but are not so distracting, just... subtly intriguing!
Some examples:
Asymmetrically Tiered Pencil Mini Skirts
Pocket Tees (and tanks!)
The beginning of summer is the perfect time for a resolution. Make one. It's refreshing.
