I recently saw an instagram post of this chicks blog Caroline Joy Rector. She is a minimalist fashion blogger who builds her whole wardrobe with just 37 items of clothing, including shoes & purses! When I first came across her system I thought to myself...HOLY MOLY only 37 pieces!? I knew I had probably more than 37 pairs of shoes! I was astonished that any female could only own 37 pieces of clothing but yet still be fashionable. So, me being the researcher and "nosey rosey" that I am, I had to find out more about this minimalist lifestyle.
My research led me to countless blogs, YouTube videos, and articles. The more I read about it the more I realized that it is totally AWESOME! The idea of minimalism is basically simplicity, and who doesn't need more of that?!
I started just researching minimalist wardrobe's but it actually stems a lot farther than just wardrobes. Minimalism is more of a lifestyle, not just something you apply to your clothes. The whole idea of living within your means, living simple and clutter free so that you can focus your energy and attention on what matters most in life; is something I have been searching for, for a while now!
The whole concept really puts my mind at ease. So as I start along this journey of purging, cleaning, de-cluttering, and simplifying I will start posting more about the steps I am taking to live a more simple life in the midst of a chaotic world. Now, will I sell everything I own and live in an RV for the rest of my days...um I think not! But I am excited to see where this journey takes me. I just wanna be a Duggar. Nuff said!
Check out this girls YouTube page! She is a minimalist who centers her decision to live simple around Jesus Christ! Woot woot! Praise! Carrie Peterson
