Keeping it simple is the essence of minimalist fashion. For me, I dreaded the word simple. The glitz and glam, the diamonds and pearls, the colors, these were the things I lived for. Sometimes, the key to fashion lies in the smallest details, in simplicity; instead of letting clothes wear you, wear the clothes. Casually chic, yet still maintaining a sense of style.

Minimalist fashion is about looking clean, comfortable, classy, and cozy with pieces that are easy to combine.

The minimalist look is achieved by using neutral colors, such as white and beige. Don't overdo it with patterns and sequins. Aim for only one pop of color. For instance, your shoes or purse can be a bright color. However, if you add too many textures, designs, and colors, your minimalist outfit will lose its appeal.

Let me introduce you to some changes you can make to be a minimalist fashion queen.

Monochromatic Color Scheme

Monochromatic looks are created by combining only one color in an outfit. This creates a very elegant look. It shows the beauty of simplicity at its finest. A monochromatic suit is a great route to take when looking for a minimalist look.

A Single Pop of Color

Wear one color, like an all-black outfit but add a single pop of color. Either your shoes, a purse, a hat, or even jewelry. Wearing only one neutral color really enhances the accessories and contrasts the colors of your look!

A Long Coat

A long coat can make even the simplest of outfits look incredibly trendy. A long coat can be styled with jeans, a sweater, sweatpants, or a dress. It is a wardrobe essential and adds to minimalist fashion.

Slouchy Slacks With Top

Slouchy slacks with a crop top are the perfect combination of simple, chic, modern, and stylish. To further enhance the look, wear jewelry – preferably gold. And there you have it! An elegant look with a weekend-appropriate feel.

Simple Denim

To add texture to your minimalist outfit, Throw some denim. You cannot go wrong with a pair of jeans, a top, or a bodysuit. If you wish to step it up, wear heels and a cute purse. You can even further accessorize with jewelry, belts, and some shades.
