The start of a new year is always a thrilling adventure for me. It symbolizes a fresh start, new goals and many accomplishments to come. Although, many would say that the same can be said for a new day, week or month; there is something special about the start of a new year that spurs many to do the most. I myself, will admit that I fall under that category considering that i chopped off all my hair as one of those fresh start initiatives, with plans to tackle my wardrobe next.

Lately, I have been been considering adopting a minimalist lifestyle. Living a minimalist lifestyle can mean different things for each person. For some, it could mean reducing clutter and living with only a few essential items. For me, it means limiting my consumption of goods and to instead revamp, re-purpose and reuse the items I have already. Thinking about creating a minimalist wardrobe by using what I have feels like a daunting task, however with a good plan in place i hope to be able to achieve this lifestyle.
