Decluttering and Minimalist Fashion

So, I started this year with a massive decluttering project. I got rid of many items in my wardrobe. All items that did not give me joy went straight to the trash bag, and it felt liberating. Over the years, my style has changed and it keeps evolving. I now prefer and value quality pieces over quantity, and I want to embrace minimalist fashion fully. This would be me buying only items I like and need, so no overconsumption.

Many of the clothing and accessories I got in the last year or so have been decluttered, so buying some more junk won’t be happening. Going forward, I am sticking to a capsule wardrobe and I would be adding a few select pieces and accessories to fill in some gaps over the next few months.

Minimalist fashion is also going to challenge me to create more looks using the same items, which should be fun. I would be going for only quality pieces, so I plan on spending a bit more to get the accessories and clothing, as with most things, you get what you pay for. So it makes a lot more sense to spend a bit more in creating a capsule wardrobe, so it lasts longer.

I have gone past the phase of trendy clothes and I just want to keep my wardrobe uncluttered and simple, with quality items only. The Style DNA app is one of the new apps I have downloaded this year. It is not a free app, but I plan to have it just for one month, and the whole idea behind the app is to find your colour type (so colours that look best on you), style type, and body type. I have been playing around with the app, looking at different looks, and it is quite informative. If you are looking to dig into your style and improve your signature look, this Style DNA app is one place to start.

 

 

Perfume Review – Parfums de Marly Feminine Discovery Set

Hey friends! Happy New Year! Welcome to the wonderful 2025! I hope you have all had an amazing start to the year. I came across Parfums de Marly sometime ago and fell in love with the sweet-smelling brand. Their perfumes are some of the best and smell so good. This Feminine Discovery Set was my introduction to the brand. I wanted to have a feel of what their feminine fragrances smelt like and opting for the discovery set rather than a full-sized bottle straightaway made a lot of sense. Plus, the £37 you put towards buying this Feminine Discovery Set could be redeemed as a discount when buying a full-sized perfume within a limited period.

PROS
  • I love all the fragrances. They smell really good. My top four favourites are Valaya, Delina, Delina Exclusif, and Meliora.
  • My top 4 fragrances are very long-lasting. They stay on pretty much all day and a little goes a long way. You don’t have to overspray these queens at all.
  • I love how different each fragrance is, there is something unique about each perfume.
CONS
  • I didn’t fancy Cassilli and Oriana. I found them a bit too light, I tend to prefer beast mode/heavy fragrances. I liked Delina La Rosee but it wasn’t long-lasting.

Overall, I am stuck on Parfums de Marly. I have quite a few bottles already in my collection and I am looking to add some more. So keep reading, there will be lots of perfume review posts coming up.
