14 Spring Essentials Every Minimalist Needs in Her Wardrobe
People often get this wrong, but being a minimalist doesn't mean you've got boring taste in fashion. It just means you're a fan of clean, structured looks that require little to no fuss at all. The quote "less is more" is probably your style motto when you're choosing your outfit in the morning. A simple white button-down and a delicate gold chain are more your speed than a bold printed blouse paired with an extravagant necklace. It's true: sometimes you can make more of a statement without any extra bells or whistles.
Whether you're a minimalist through and through or you're looking for a couple of key pieces to appease that side of your personality, here are the 14 Spring essentials you need in your closet.
A Simple T-Shirt
Wear this J.Crew Women's New Perfect Fit T-Shirt ($25) under a structured blazer.
A White Blouse
For a twist on a regular white blouse, try this Theory Women's Tamalee Sartorial Shirt ($255).
A Delicate Gold Necklace
This Rebecca Minkoff Beaded Pave Bar Necklace ($68) would look great with a silk slip dress.
