Minimalism inspires wardrobe overhaul
From Mpls. St. Paul Magazine
By Bailey Berg
How many times have you looked at your closet bursting with clothes — oodles of cheap Forever 21 and Urban Outfitters tops, some of which still have the tags on — and lamented that you had “nothing to wear”?
Maybe, just maybe, this is one of those cases where less actually is more.
Allison Kaplan, at Mpls.St.Paul Magazine, recently wrote about St. Paul Target designer and fashion blogger Madelynn Furlong, who is a champion for the minimalist movement. Furlong purged her closet and “started over with the French essentials: black cigarette pants, a white shirt, a black silk blouse, a black dress — 10 pieces in all. Without the clutter, she started finding her true style.”
Learn more about the movement on Furlong’s style blog, Wide Eyed Legless.

Express Your Self(ie)
There’s much more behind snapping a self-portrait than meets the eye — namely, an expression of your own identity.
Taking a selfie is the guilty pleasure of the smartphone era. It’s second nature to see someone snapping a picture of himself with his iPhone — at a baseball game, the gym or even the bathroom.
