I love Sundays.
Sunday is my most lazy day so I've decided to make it a bit more productive and create SUNDAY FUNDAY. If you're anything like me this weekly Sunday post will have some things to for you to check out while binge watching your latest show.
Each SUNDAY FUNDAY list is 10 items long. The content will change but the categories will remain the same.
INSPIRATIONAL | I'm trying to inspire others to start becoming more of a minimalist. Maybe not in the same sense that I am but in a way that people begin to live within thier own means. The book The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up by Marie Kondo is a book that really changed my entire world. I've started living with less and feeling more. This book gets pretty intense and might be WAY more than most people need. It's a good read and is available on Kindle as well.
ANIMAL | As of 2016 the FBI has launched a new program for dealing with animal cruelty! It's going to change the results in courts as well as increse in information recorded on the subject. Big move America!
FOOD | I make these Asparagus Stuffed Chicken Breasts on the regs. I add Panko bread crumbs or crushed triscuts to make it a bit crispier. They're perfect for 1-2 people or more even. I cook mine in the toaster oven when it's just one serving- easy, healthy and quick meal!
TUTORIAL | Do you take photos with a DSLR? Do you want to? Might be worth learning some of the basics such as Exposure. Something like exposure can make or break the light balance of a photo, if it's too dark it can be very difficult to remove the noise. Stay tuned for blog posts about photography.
FASHION | I want to own clothing that will last me as long as possible and through as many seasons as possible. Since I'm a child in a woman's body I still love a good pair of Overalls! You can wear them through spring, summer and fall and are such an easy staple to just slip on.
BEAUTY | The Tarte Amazonian Clay Matte Bronzer is my holy grail of bronzers. It's perfect for my sensitive skin and a little goes a long way. I love the shimmer version for the summer, adds the right kind of warm glow. My skin is neutral but it works well on both cool and warm tones even better. Not to mention it's cruelty free! it isn't vegan though, it does include dehydrated eggs.
MUSIC | Zinc - Show Me. It's been one of my most played since it came out. The lead dancers in the video are actually this really amazing dancing couple from Tokyo, Japan - AyaBambi. I actually found the video because of them! Bonus.
BLOG POST | Grey + Scout always post the best interiors. I've fallen in love with this micro home. It's so beautiful!
ANIME | Now this has been very Americanized after being added to Netflix, but this was the manga that stole my heart and the anime that kept me glued to my computer for hours. NANA is this story of these two 20 year old girls both named Nana who meet unexpected and end up becoming each other's friendship soulmate. It's a slow paced anime but I find it really resonated with me and it was very down to earth, beautiful writing and amazing music. It would really edge well with this generations millenials. I'd say it's very 14A rating. Since it's on Netflix and also comes in a dubbed version, it's a good starting point for anime newbies! The only thing is that it's a very crude cut off ending because it was never completed - but you can still read the mangas! Check Netflix (available on Canadian and american) , it's also free on AnimeFreak and is not on Crunchyroll.
DIY | By putting time and effort into creating certian things in my home they feel more worth it and I find myself more inclined to use them. After a coffee cup burned a ring into my beautiful hand carved one of a kind fish table I decided that I needed coasters. So I will be making these cute Hexagon Concrete Coasters. They're super minimal and very simple to make, so if they ever break or I need more, I can make more!

Really cool post! I can't wait to learn more about minimalism - a friend of mine is trying to get her wardrobe down to 50 items and although it's tough she's been able to get dressed and stay organized with a lot more ease.
ReplyDeleteYes! Capsule wardrobes are incredible! I'm actually working on mine - slowly but surely because I'm poor and it's a full renovation, but I will be making a post on How to Create YOUR perfect Capsule Wardrobe!
