Lately I've been feeling like I need to simplify. Utilitarianism has never been a staple of my style. I usually gravitate to pretty patterns and uncomfortable shoes. But more and more I'm so attracted to its basic shapes, colors and materials that are fuss free and really quite cool. There is something very honest about these objects. It's very obvious what their construction and materials are. They've not been over designed or exaggerated. They are just what you need.

I feel the same way. But, whenever I try to organize and simplify, I end up having to buy more things to help me do that! YIKES!
