THE ELEGANT EDIT


Greetings my dear friends  Here we are together again in our beautiful and elegant space.  I am very sorry for my absence.  Life has been quite busy since we last spoke.  Everyone experiences changes in life, and as such that is what makes life interesting.  Change is in the air here at "A Chic Minimalist," and our conversations may change.  Nonetheless, here we are together again, and I promise that we will continue on with our weekly chats, without another year long interruption.  

We all change in life.  Especially as we leave our twenties, and enter into our thirties.  Elegance and grace, as a thirty-something woman, exude from my soul. Instead of the "chicness" of years gone bye.  Our chic chats were part of my youth, and perhaps part of your youth as well.  We are now a year older, and more refined.  More importantly, my twenties have passed, and I am well into my thirties. Thus, let's call our weekly discussion "The Elegant Edit," instead of the beloved "Chic Chat."

Now, instead of talking endlessly let's introduce a new weekly series entitled "The Elegant Edit."  This weekly edit, will feature beautiful luxuries that inspire my day to day life.  We will also share simply stunning items we are covering.  We will feature five beautiful things to ignite your visual pleasure.
