I consider this image the beginning – the start of my love of simple, minimal, Scandinavian style. Stumbling across this image of Elin Kling and Linn Hagglund on Pinterest about a decade ago opened my eyes to the fact that simple is usually better. I used to dress to stand out and always looked for pieces with an extra detail that no one else would have – which quickly lead to a closet full of clothes with nothing to wear. Ever since then I’ve been striving to buy less and buy better. Focus on the classics and you’ll never go out of style. I’m still searching for Linn’s gorgeous Bottega Veneta slingbacks ten years later.
