Fewer, Better Things
Velvet SLIPPERS
Perhaps nowhere is this more true than in the humble wardrobe.
Sure I love the idea of racks of designer ensembles neatly hanging in colour co-ordinated segments, but do I really need all those sartorial options ?
Probably not.
On a deeper level, often too many choices is not a good thing. It can be complicating, confusing, and cluttering. I mean, have you tried ordering a coffee lately ?
As more of us are embracing the concept of determining what we really need and living with less, I wanted to share one of my favorite online retailers – cuyana.
Operating under the philosophy of “fewer, better things” their capsule style collection of premium women’s wardrobe essentials.
The range includes silk tees, knitwear, jackets, and leather accessories focused on a restrained palette of neutral taupe, black, white and grey.
Their collection of leather goods is a highlight - think easy, elegant organization with leather pouches, carry all totes, laptop sleeves and pebbled leather travel case sets, all of which can be personalized with your initials.
So if your mantra is to choose quality over quantity and style over trends, head over to Cuyana to create the perfect capsule wardrobe.

When the phrase ‘natural fragrance’ is bandied about, your mind tends to wander to images of patchouli lathered hippies or new age concoctions that need to be re-applied on the hour.
Words like fresh, crisp, chic, fashionable and sexy don’t tend to roll off the tongue.
That’s until you find Heretic Parfum who produce a premium collection of hand crafted fragrances composed entirely of naturally derived ingredients.
Founded in 2016 by cool Californian creative Douglas Little, Heretric also has a whip sharp sense of humor – central to their infinitely ‘clean’ parfum collection is the ‘Dirty’ range which includes Dirty Jasmine, Dirty Mango, Dirty Fig, Dirty Lemon, and the CBD infused Dirty Grass.
There’s also the opportunity to create a Personalized Discovery Set of four or twelve sample scents. Need more motivation – the perfumes contain no synthetics and are never tested on animals.
