ew trends boast the staying power minimalism does. Because minimalist fashion isn’t just a passing fad—it represents an entire sartorial mindset. Minimalism is about paring down your closet to its basics, creating a capsule wardrobe full of essentials and pairing those go-to’s every which way until you have a whole host of minimalist outfits at your disposal. It’s fashion in its most efficient form: Your closet is there to complement you, not to dominate your headspace, you can actually Look Top Notch In Casual Minimalist Outfits! Our collective affinity for minimalism hit full swing several years ago, and it’s remained unendingly strong since. Though maximalism has become popular in street style and home decor spheres, it hasn’t dulled minimalism’s overwhelming appeal; odds are, there’s something inside all of us that will continue appreciating simplicity, balance and peace for years—maybe even decades—to come. The issue is: Appreciating minimalist fashion and integrating it into your day-to-day are two very, very different things. Because the latter requires effort. You have to Kondo the hell out of your closet, build that aforementioned capsule wardrobe and then brainstorm enough minimalist outfits to carry you through life. And just when you think you’ve achieved the perfect minimalist situation, something—some event, some outfit inspo pic, something—will rear its ugly head, and you’ll realize you totally neglected to stock up on some basic that’s essential to like, 10 of the outfits you want to wear. The best way to figure out what you need to shop? Determining what you want to wear. And the easiest way to make that happen is to peruse all the minimalist outfit inspiration you can get your hands on. Which is exactly why we’ve assembled a visual guide to the trend sleekest, best minimalist fashion outfits we’ve ever laid eyes on.

If you’re concerned minimalism would just get monotonous, this innovative look should prove to you just how creative you can get. Related: Are you ready for fabulous 2021? A T-shirt and jeans is all you really need—no matter the season. Just layer your go-to jacket over your look if it’s cold out, and you’ll be good to go. More structural pieces certainly have a home in the minimalist wardrobe of your dreams. Because structure and versatility are far from mutually exclusive. [vc_empty_space height=”40px”] I mean, it’s pretty hard to argue with the oh-so classic T-shirt, blazer, jeans, boots combo.
Your favorite fall sweater absolutely has a home in your spring/summer wardrobe. Hoodies are cozy, warm, comfortable—basically, amazing. Lounge in one while working from home, and you can definitely have hoodies in at least five different colors. If you thought this casual piece was reserved for lazy days only, you’re wrong. A simple way to elevate said hoodie is with a plaid blazer and a pair of black jeans. The polished-ness of your jeans and blazer will balance out the relaxed feel of your hoodie. If you think the outfit’s still missing something, layer on accessories like your favorite bag. The defining outfit of 2020/21 has been the sweatsuit. The once-sloppy ensemble is now considered… chic? Sweatshirt and sweatpants might not be the pinnacle of fashion on their own, but when styled right, it’s a look. I suggest taking a cue from Mrs. Bieber and opting for a neutral sweatsuit as the base. Pair your comfy clothes with a chic tailored coat, sleek sunnies, and a small bag. Top it off with some comfy kicks. The phrase “casual and cute” implies that the look took less than five minutes to put together. First you’ll need jeans, because they go with everything. Second, you’ll need a v-neck or crew neck tee of your choice. To take this plain outfit from drab to fab, focus on the outerwear. Cover up with a blazer for a hint of sophistication, and if your outfit is lacking color, add in a bright pair of sandal heels. The beauty of this ensemble is that it combines all your basic pieces to form a fresh new look. Why not integrate your gym wardrobe into your day-to-day one? This is minimalism, after all. Because when everything in your closet falls within the same palette, you can craft a three-piece suit from, well, anything. A puffer coat-jean-boot combination is kind of a no-fail option during the winter. And no one will even notice if you wear the same shirt two days in a row, because they can’t see it. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________________________A Visual Guide to the Trend Sleekest Minimalist Fashion Outfits We’ve Ever Seen
