You might be a minimalist and not even know it!<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve only very recently felt comfortable calling myself a minimalist. I used to, like a lot of people, think I was interested in de-cluttering and simplifying but in no way was I a minimalist. This is because the images we often see and connect with minimalism are those of minimalist design and style &#8211; black &amp; white, perfectly clean, basic shapes, and straight lines. What I&#8217;ve realized is that having a minimalist aesthetic is a separate concept from incorporating minimalist ideas into your life.<\/p>\n<p>A minimalist lifestyle is going to look different for everyone (it can be bright, colourful, and eclectic if that&#8217;s your personal style). It centers on the idea of only having things that enhance and benefit your life, but doesn&#8217;t mean getting rid of absolutely everything or trying to create a particular &#8216;look&#8217;. I&#8217;m pretty new to this, but I see minimalism as a way to actually maximize living by removing things that are negative or just not adding to your life in anyway. It&#8217;s a path to more happiness, freedom, and personal growth, and the way that looks is totally up to you!<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been thinking about this a lot and would love to hear your thoughts! Do you consider yourself a minimalist? What does minimalism look like for you?<\/p>\n<p><em>Erin is a fashion designer, illustrator, and eco fashion blogger who is trying to live a simpler and slower life.
