A MINIMALIST’S GUIDE to LIVING a MINDFUL LIFE
  • 10/10









    I’m trying to find a subtle way to express my love for the minimal greatness that are the outfits above. Where do I start? It’s not only that they are absolutely effortless and highly appropriate for this ever-sunny weather but it’s also that they have this innate attitude in them. Think about it. If these outfits were a person they'd be, let’s say, Katherine Hepburn: feisty and beautiful.

    I’ve always admired people who look like they’re at peace with their clothes and that’s always what I aim to feel like myself. It’s clear when we’re not ourselves in them, even the tiniest fidgeting gives us away.

    That’s why I find it quite refreshing how we become simpler and more appreciative of “less is more” as we grow older—or at least that is the case for me. I don’t think I ever painted my face with makeup or overdid my hair since I got to my 20’s. If anything, I’ve become more appreciative of things which before I saw as unfashionable or uncool… Can you tell?

    I do not know and do not understand why do we do that to ourselves—why we relentlessly put makeup on to “look” more beautiful, why do we overdo it with clothes to look more “put together”—Shouldn’t we instead "be" beautiful and shouldn’t we wear clothes that make us feel comfortable with ourselves and not look like someone else? Well, that’s my two cents.

    What I’m trying to say here is, man! How I wish I had these in my closet. I could wear those open-front blouses and high-waisted trousers religiously... and I have the feeling that many of you would too. As if we needed one more reason to want them, the ones above are made out of 100% raw silk.

    So is this vintage-inspired trend a yes or a no for you?

    COS and H&M Home

    The occasional appearance of deep wine colors in the Autumn/Winter is nothing unusual — but the past few years we have been playing with a much more neutral palette (especially in the minimalism world), a lot of nudes, ‘greyges’, taupes and the sporadic deep brown.

    This year on the other hand, we are seeing colors in all their splendor. Making a statement more than an appearance. From vibrant blues, coral oranges, musky greens, deep reds all the way to my favorite color of the season, these almost moody shades of burgundy.

    I’ve always loved the power of color. It's classic yet chameleonic. It's pure elegance when it’s treated with honest simplicity.

    What is your favorite color of the season? Do tell.

    Adidas' newest collaboration is making every minimalist's heart throb. In the company of Tokyo-based brand Hender Scheme, Adidas pays homage to iconic sneaker silhouettes and makes history by collaborating with another footwear brand for the first time.

    The shoes show a lot of the intrinsic personality of Hender Scheme and the origins of Adidas. Not to mention the shoes are manually produced in tanned leather with the absolute mastery of Ryo Kashiwazaki—an innate designer and founding father of the brand.

    The luxurious re-inventions of the classic MicroPacer, NMD R1 and Superstar are wearable works of art.

    Damoy is a multi-brand boutique based in Antwerp, Belgium. Their carefully curated showroom includes a small but wonderful array of Designers.

    The stunning boutique is soon launching a label called "La Collection"—a minimal, effortless and eclectic brand that has a high-end approach in mind. The sneak peaks on social media have created high expectations for this brand... and I’m sure they won’t be disappoint.

    La Collection’s first try is shaping out to be a hit, with pieces that take us on a journey through the magical streets of Morocco while bringing comfort and style.

    From the headquarters to each individual piece they offer, Damoy pays close attention to detail—and we are sure to see them surface as a favorite of many, including myself.

Their minimal and conscious approach is pure perfection — touching on all key points without compromising look or quality.

    I thought it would be hard to ever admit that I'm very much a supporter of wearing chokers — but that one above, I feel, completely justifies (and maybe even encourages) my opinion.

    Photography © Minimalism & Co. Qwstion is the result of the creative dream of founder Sebastian Kruit, Swiss industrial designers Christian Kaegi and Fabrice Aeberhard and graphic designers Matthias Graf and Hannes Schoenegger. In 2008 they set out to create a bag bag could close the gap between functional sports bags and elegant fashion bags and they achieved it. Their desire to create products that are for everyday use and independent in style led to the development of bags that work just as well on a bicycle as in a business meeting.

    Qwstion's impeccable detailing and functional approach has gained them well-deserved recognition in the Minimalism world.

    I stumbled upon their stunning Simple Shopper Bag via Minimalism & Co. — A parcel-based shop that is eager to help you build a more balanced relationship with the things you acquire and discover objects worth owning. The Simple Shopper Bag is part of their Style Staple Parcel which will quickly become the perfect addition to your Autum wardrobe.
