First and Middle Name Robyn. You’re not getting anything more than that. What would you rather be doing right now? I’m in my happy place rn taking surveys and having coffee at 11 PM. I can’t complain. How do you feel right now, honestly? I’m feeling a little blah. Anxious, bleak, empty, sad... just blah. I’m taking surveys for two reasons tonight: because it’s my routine (which is usually my only reason) and also to take my mind off of real life for a bit. Today’s been heavy.

Do you feel good with God? I don’t think of that concept at all. What is your signature perfume? Beyonce’s Heat Rush haha. I’ve used it since high school; nearly everyone recognizes me by that scent.

What is your favorite smell? Freshly baked chocolate chip cookies, hotel rooms when you first check into them, and onions and garlic being sauteed. What perfume/cologne do you want to try? I’m not feeling too curious about other perfumes. I’ve been happy with mine for like half a decade now. What color are your nails? Not colored, not painted, not modified. How big is your nose? For an Asian it’s pretty standard. If you compare it to international standards it’s slightly large but it doesn’t overpower my other facial features. Do you keep a diary/journal? This one. I answer like this every time lmao. What is something you do everyday? These days I’ve been drinking coffee daily. But if we count pre-lockdown habits, I always play with my dog and always have played with him in the last 12 years. What is something you know you will never do? This question is such a curse cause I’ve done everything I used to say I’d never do lol – drink, smoke, cut class, join an org while in college, etc. I’ve run out of things I’m uninterested in doing. Would you rather a road trip or fly by plane? I honestly love both modes of transpo and both are actually my favorites but I think I like planes a little more. I like seeing cities and nature and the sunset/sunrise from up the sky. Plus I don’t get dizzy and they also serve food in planes. When do you prefer to listen to music? I’m not very attached to music so I don’t feel like having it on 24/7, but I do tend to turn to my Spotify if I feel like it’s too quiet and I’m too scared to be alone with myself and my thoughts. Usually this happens if I’m home alone and it’s a slow day and I’m not particularly doing anything. What is music you can't stand? Country, gospel, anything with too much screamo, Taylor Swift. What color ink do you love to write in? Black is alright with me. Have you ever pressed flowers in a book? Nope. What is your favorite type of flower? OMG this question in a survey again? Peonies. What is your favorite animal? Dogs. What is your favorite kind of insect? None I hate them all. What are you drinking/eating right now? I have a cup of coffee with me. I’m feeling kinda hungry but it’s midnight and I doubt we have anything.

OK scratch that lmao - my dad’s been in the kitchen for much longer than he usually is at this time of the night so I went up to him to check in because of this question, and now I’m getting a ham and cheese sandwich yay. What kind of car do you have? I have a Mitsubishi Mirage hatchback. On my coding days I’ll drive my dad’s Suzuki Vitara. What kind of shoes do you wear the most? Sneakers/rubber shoes. What do your sunglasses look like? I don’t really wear shades. Where do you shop for most of your clothes, honestly? Independent clothing stalls at the mall, mostly in Feliz. They usually follow whatever’s trending on IG and fashion in general at a much lower price than what I’d see in like Zara, so it’s a pretty sweet deal. What does your purse look like? I don’t have a purse, just a wallet. It’s pink and is pretty straightforward with its pockets lmao. What do you love to wear (tops)? Puffy sleeves, spaghetti straps, off-shoulder tops, anything sleeveless really, and t-shirts with graphics on them to get a 90s feel. What do you love to wear (bottoms)? Currently obsessed with mom jeans these days. How many times do you think you fart in a day? I don’t fart. At least when I feel one I suppress it on purpose. I just find it gross hahaha I’m only okay with burping.

Do you fart in front of your significant other? No, but the other way around. Do you poop in front of them? She will sometimes. Do you remember what you did yesterday? Yesterday was technically two hours ago so it’s still pretty fresh. I spent most of the day angry and anxious. What do you plan to do tomorrow? Idk. I’ve stopped having a schedule/routine in the last month. What are you looking forward to in the near future? For the quarantine to be over, to go to the mall again, to GRADUATE. What is your favorite kind of tea? Iced tea. What is your favorite candy bar? Butterfinger. Or Reese’s, even if that’s round and only if it counts? What is your favorite kind of cake? Cheeeeeesecake. My birthday’s on Tuesday and thank god there’s a house in our village that sells homemade cakes and one of the things they sell is cheesecake, because then it’ll be easy to order for that day. What kind of milk do you drink? I don’t drink milk and I’ve never been conditioned to consume it in general, so I’m not familiar with the different kinds, even the ones lactose intolerant people can drink. How do you like your coffee? Anything but blaaaack. The creamier/sweeter the better. What is a site you check everyday? Twitter, unless I deactivated. What kind of shoes will you not be seen in? Wedges.

What I Learned From 5 Years of Minimalism

The Beginning of  a Learning Curve

It all started with clothes. Oh boy, the clothes that 14-year-old Brenna chose to wear. Walking into Rue 21, determined to make all my fashion dreams come true, I‌ [un]wisely chose 3 pairs of brightly colored skinny jeans⁠—electric blue, shockingly emerald green, and maroon⁠—and cheaply made circle scarves and tops to match. This was it. This is how I would gain the “oohs” and “ahhs” and admiration of my fellow trendy Freshmen at Parowan High.

Eventually, the glamour wore off. Frustrated, I realized that rare shades of spunky green could only match with so many things. Dressing fashionably was more of a chore than I had ever wanted it to be, and somehow I still didn’t measure up to the girls around me. How would I‌ ever be comfortable with how I looked and achieve the effortless style I longed for?

Enter minimalism⁠—the worldwide movement touting the universal benefits of decluttering, downsizing, and “less is more.” Capsule wardrobes and black and white outfits seemed like the perfect solution to my personal style dilemma, and at age 15 I proudly declared myself to be a “minimalist.”

(If you are not familiar with the term “minimalism”, this article, and this article both give a good overview.)

I‌ began to devour every piece of minimalist literature and media I could find. I strategically began buying clothing that was guaranteed to pair well each day. I was ruthless as I decluttered my belongings and challenged myself to thrive with only the things that were necessary. Everything had to go. Frivolity and excess became enemies to my ideal of perfection.

At one point, I was successfully dressing myself for school each day with only 3 shirts, 2 pairs of jeans, 2 pairs of shoes, and one jacket to my name. Decided pickiness and a limited budget didn’t allow for much more, but at that time it was all about the numbers. I was proud of myself for proving it was possible to “live with less.”

But minimalism isn't strictly about clothing. It's a way of life. Mistakenly, I began to pattern myself after the lifestyle I saw on other people’s blogs and YouTube channels, convincing myself that this was my best life. Minimalism changed a lot of things for me: how I‌ viewed my time, my dream [tiny] house I‌ would build in college (ha! not happening), constant dissatisfaction with the untidiness of any room that wasn’t mine, and even how I‌ lived the gospel. Clearing the excess left me feeling empty instead of whole.

It took a little while but I finally realized that I‌ don’t want the smallest home possible; I don’t want to grow all my food and live off the grid; I‌ don’t want to constantly obsess over having the “right” stuff. And white walls and furniture? Forget it! I’m gonna be a mama, after all.

What I Got Wrong

In the end, minimalism wasn’t the solution to all my problems. For a young girl who felt that having full control over every detail of her life would bring the peace she desired, maybe minimalism wasn’t the best thing. However, looking back I wouldn’t give up the lessons I‌ learned about the relationship between possessions and my individual worth. While there was certainly a time that I cut out too much in order to live the lifestyle I‌ thought would save me, I have now kept the best parts of that journey and found balance and joy in more fulfilling ways.

So what are the best parts of minimalism? A few years ago, I totally missed the mark on that score. “Minimalism is a tool to rid yourself of life’s excess in favor of focusing on what’s important—so you can find happiness, fulfillment, and freedom.” (theminimalists.com, emphasis added) I, however, was using this tool as a justification for striving for unattainable flawlessness.

While I recount my past misunderstandings concerning minimalism, my goal is to dissuade you from it’s vices, not it’s actual tenets. Younger Brenna was reading words between the lines that weren’t meant to be there in the first place.

In fact, nearly every minimalist influencer out there pleads that newbies to the movement avoid conforming to any one way of using minimalism, especially if it isn’t right for them.

According to Colleen Valles of No Side Bar, “the beauty of minimalism” is that “there are no standards.”

“Minimalism is not about following someone else’s rules or way of living as a minimalist,” offers Melissa of Simple Lionheart Life. “It’s about figuring out what is important to you and getting rid of everything that’s distracting you from the important stuff.”

As I made this mental shift from a sort of utopian/restrictive minimalism to a mindful/carefree minimalism, here’s a few lessons I picked up on:

Lesson 1: When you find out what is really important to you, you’ll actually want it, and have a clear path to get it.

In this busy, busy world there is so much to choose from. With all of these choices vying for our attention, decision fatigue eventually leads to self doubt and feelings of failure.

But do we really even want the things that we choose on a daily basis? Do we want to scroll through our Instagram for 6 hours a day? Do we want to impress people whose opinions don’t matter to us anyway? Do we want to avoid things that might challenge us just because it is safe and easy? No one, when making a list of their priorities in life, even thinks about these things. They don’t make the Top 100!

So ask yourself, “What do I really want? And what is stopping me from obtaining it?” When I talk about actually wanting something, that includes taking the necessary action to reach for it and then make it a reality. This is different than saying something is a priority, or knowing something should be important to us.

You don't really want it unless you act like you want it.

A powerful gift that we have been given from our God is our ability to choose. By realizing what you really want and don’t want for your life, daily decision-making won't necessarily become easier, but it will certainly be simpler.

In my own life, instead of wearing certain styles of clothes to fit in or measure up to someone else, I‌ wear them because I‌ want to. I dress modestly because I want to. I‌ wear my vintage mom jeans because I look dang good in them, and because I‌ want to.

Instead of counting how many objects I own in order to fit into some made up ideal, I‌ keep it to the necessities because I want to. I‌ want my stuff to be organized, so I organize it, not worrying about how unorganized other people’s stuff is (because people are more important than stuff).

Once I figured out what I‌ really wanted, my life truly became mine, not some miserable copy-cat existence. My biggest hope for you is to recognize just how much power you wield when you make the choice to choose what your life is going to be.

Lesson 2: You can’t have everything you want, but you can be content.

I know this seems counter-intuitive to "choose what you want in life." But hear me out.

I am a firm believer that when we decide to choose the important stuff, it invites those things into our lives like a magnet. But I also know that we can’t choose every situation, or heartache, or trial that becomes a part of our mortal journey.

I like to think that our freedom of choice falls into two categories: (1) the things we can control or influence, no questions asked, and (2) the things we can’t–in which case we still have full and complete control over our attitude, our outlook, our reaction, and how we cope with what is placed before us.

My decision to be a minimalist was born out of discontent. I‌ just wanted more, more, more, because I didn’t feel like I was enough. But today, I’m here to tell you, that whatever you do have–whether it’s less or more–you can be content, and even grateful, right where you are. You are enough, and all that surrounds you is enough.

Even after all my talk of action and knowing what you want, I know that sometimes there is no amount of action that can change what our reality is right now. Some of our desires only come to fruition after we’ve been reaching for a very long time.

Remember those two categories of choices? I‌ think that they can be separated by time as well. The first category, the things we can control, are all in the future, at some later date. And while we wait, we make the category two choices: our attitude, how we view our situation. Contentedness is “satisfaction with things as they are.”

Plainly stated, we will never be happy or fulfilled with what we have in the future if we don’t accept our current situation–the “right now.”

What I am trying to say is this: maybe you want x but you need y. You want a clean home, but you need less stuff. You want freedom, but you need to take charge of your choices. You want peace, but you need to make space for it by letting go of something first. You want to be productive, but you need to measure your success differently.

After you know what you want, being content in your day-to-day existence–with yourself, your situation, your stuff, and the people around you–is the best way to love the journey while you reach for your desires.

Lesson 3: Money matters, but not in the way the world tells you.

Long before minimalism, I‌ learned my most important lesson about money management from paying tithing. Giving 10-percent of my earnings to the Lord–as a act of faith and obedience–has always multiplied the other 90-percent.

Minimalism taught me how to more effectively use that 90-percent. It’s easy to think that we are free to spend money just because we have it. I have been shopping for about 5 out of 20 years that I've been alive, and every purchase that ended up not working out in the way that I expected–whether I‌ was expecting increased happiness, popularity, or some easy fix to a deeper problem–was a lesson about treating my money well.

When you treat your money with kindness, it will treat you kindly too. So be nice to your money. Think carefully before you use it. Save some of it to show that you appreciate it. Invest it in something for the future. Spend it on that which is good and wholesome–especially the things and the people you treasure. But in all of your budgeting, don’t be too stingy with it. Money will ebb and flow through your life. Treat yourself! Use it as a tool to improve your life and lives around you. The mistakes you make with money will always be lessons for the future. Money is forgiving when you try to mend your ways; all it takes is some time.

Livin’ the Slow Life

I‌ hope you realize how recently these lessons took full effect for me. It didn’t happen right at first, or even all at once.

Over time, I’ve come to distance myself from the world of minimalism. I‌ no longer pour over articles from minimalist bloggers. I‌ know enough, and it sits well with me. Still, minimalism has been a big part of my growth, and I can’t pretend like it never happened.

Now that I know myself and my stuff a little bit better, I’ve decided to call what I do “slow living.” With a quick internet search you will find that there is certainly a slow movement going on, with decades of history behind it, but that's not what I'm talking about. I'm just doing what works for me (and borrowing the term). How I approach productivity, money, and how I spend my time is largely influenced by minimalism, but recently it’s become something all it's own. (Of course, I’ve always been influenced by the gospel of Jesus Christ.) Right now, I’m just focused on “embracing my pace.” And I can’t wait to tell you more about it.

Live valiant leigh,

Brenna

-

I’m texting a member of the opposite sex right now. I’m listening to Jaaaason Derulooooo atm. I usually don’t take these bolding surveys. But anything to keep me from doing my homework. I had a really good weekend. I saw many wonderful faces. I’ve gotten starbucks within the past week. I hate when a parent uses the whole ‘just because all your friends are doing it doesn’t mean you have to…’ I already went to prom. I had/have a date for prom. We’re going as friends. My prom group is pretty big. I have to listen to Matt & Kim atleast once a day. I’ve had a all-you-can-listen-to-is-country phase before. I’ve listened to Red Hot Chili Peppers within the past week. Last thing I spent my money on was food. Last thing I spent my money on was clothes. My occupation is baby-sitting. Ultimate frisbee is a sport. I’m on a highschool sports team. I don’t have just one best friend. I think a boy and a girl can be JUST friends without having benefits or falling for each other. Sometimes I look at people and wonder what they were on when they got dressed in the morning. I’d consider myself a city girl. Jersey Shore is my guilty pleasure. I had no idea there were even volcanoes in Iceland. I’m closer to my mom. I’m taller than my mom. I really like being on facebook. I should get some homework done for tomorrow. I’ve signed up for a boring field trip just to get me out of school. My best friend still has their V card. I’ve used awkwardly cheesy pick up lines. I’m usually stuck drunk sitting at parties. I can be selfish at times. I’m saving up for a car. I’m really good at science. I hate being told what to do by people other than my mom/dad, I rather punch you in the face instead. I’ve seen episodes of Skins. I have not smoked anything in a while. I’d say I’m somewhat liberal. I’m still not ready to do my homework. I need to go use the bathroom right about now.

SZA Stylist Dianne Garcia's Nordstrom x Nike Collection Makes Streetwear Sexy

Dianne Garcia is always on the go. Or as her Instagram bio so succinctly puts it, she's "actually working." The Los Angeles-based stylist is the mastermind behind the smooth, understated, and street-rooted style of Compton's golden child, Kendrick Lamar. She's also responsible for SZA's dreamy aesthetic that's equal parts girly and rugged tomboy, and the look of R&B's newest sensation, Ella Mai. So yes, Garcia's plate is full, but that hasn't stopped the fashion wunderkind from delving into an exclusive ready-to-wear collection for Nordstrom x Nike designed with working women in mind.

Launching exclusively on Nordstrom.com and in-store at the Nordstrom x Nike boutique (curated by Nordstrom's vice president of creative projects, Olivia Kim) on November 10, Garcia's Nordstrom x Nike collection echoes the sports brand's sleek, polished, athletic vibe while incorporating her streetwear appeal. The nine-piece range (from $45 to $175) is filled with reworked Nike staples, from compression shorts to oversized jackets, bodysuits, and more, all inspired by Nike's iconic Air Force 1 silhouette. "I’ve always been a sneakers girl," Garcia says. "My first shoes were baby Nikes, and I felt the company has evolved in their sportswear. That’s what I wear all the time, even though clothes change and trends come and go.”

Ahead of the collection's debut, I hopped on the phone with Garcia to discuss what it's like designing her first-ever collection, the fashion trends she wishes would die, and what pieces speak to her clients, Ella Mai and SZA.

Kendrick Lamar, SZA, Ella Mai’s style always looks so effortless, refreshing, never forced. How did you develop their specific styles?

I was fortunate enough to work with artists that have an unconventional way of doing things and those three are quite comfortable with who they are, standing out from what other rappers or singers are wearing. Our personal style and personality, I believe, is what attracted us to one another. They’re also performers and, at the end of the day, they need to feel comfortable. Coming from a streetwear background, I tend to gravitate towards the underdogs, the up-and-coming indie brands. It's a collaborative process so we're always picking out styles that don't look contrived or that everybody is already wearing.

How did your relationship with Nike begin?

As far as my personal relationship with the brand, it started when I was a kid. Nike has always been a preferred brand for me since I was younger. Even though it leaned toward athletic wear, I loved being able to wear something that was functional, comfortable, and still looked cool because that’s basically my personal style.

I started working at a sneaker store, Blends in Los Angeles, during my first year in college and over time, I connected with a lot of people that work at the brand. My mom and step-father worked at headquarters—even though they don’t do anything fashion-based or anything—so the connection was always there and it's all been leading up to this.

How did Nike and Nordstrom approach you about designing a collection?

They told me they had an opportunity with Nordstrom to do a women’s or unisex collection where I re-design existing styles. I’m a stylist so my job is to remix things; a lot of the stuff that I do is taking stuff that already exists and putting my own twist or the artist's twist on it to match whatever we think is more appealing. The approach that Nike had for the collection was aligned with what I had envisioned. I always find myself looking at designs Nike previously produced and thinking, "Well, if this had a little bit of this added to it or if I could switch up the silhouette to make this a little bigger or smaller, it would be something that women really want to wear." We’re already wearing athletic wear in our daily lives so to add some comfort, function and a stylish aesthetic to it makes it even better.

What was it like stepping into the design chair for the first time?

As a stylist, you kind of always have that design eye turned on. It was great, really effortless because I collaborated with Nike before to create clothing for my clients and I’ve designed stuff from scratch before. However, I wouldn't describe myself as a designer just yet because with that word comes a real responsibility. There are people who are real designers who went to school and learned their craft. I would love to continue to design stuff but I’m a stylist first.

You play into a few of the current trends in fashion by recreating Nike biker shorts, bodysuits, oversized jacket, etc. Describe the aesthetic you were going for with this.

Everybody is loving bike shorts right now and I own a few pairs from Nike myself, so I saw a pair that was high-waisted and felt that it would be more flattering to women of all shapes and sizes to wear. I was inspired by all the women I talk to, the everyday woman who has jobs, goes to school, has a busy life, and thought what would they want to wear? Athleisure is such a huge trend but what does that look like for the everyday woman who’s always on the go? How would she be comfortable in biker shorts or a bodysuit? So it was a lot of me taking my personal concerns and the feedback of other women to make the silhouettes cooler, better, and easier to wear.

One off the biggest things for me was making sure they merchandise well together. You can pretty much buy everything in that collection and mix-and-match the pieces, it’s basically a complete wardrobe. The bodysuit can go under the bike shorts or the puffer skirt, the jacket can go over everything and the overalls is a piece that can fit every body type. I’m a working woman, all my friends are working women. We don’t want to think too much about our outfits when we wake up because time is of the essence but how can we make this look good? Create an all-black collection that’s really comfortable, really functional, and aesthetically appealing.

What pieces have you been reaching for lately?

Oh, the overalls for sure. It falls on the tomboy, androgynous side and it’s a one piece so it’s comfortable. The overalls also have a nylon shell—so the wind isn't going through it—with padding to give just a little more warmth. Then on the sexier side, I love the bodysuit. I wear bodysuits all the time, especially black or white bodysuits, those are staples in my closet because they’re functional and pair well with anything.

For me, it’s always about juxtaposition. There’s a huge oversized jacket that was made from a men’s 3x jacket and I would wear that with the biker shorts so there’s still this sexy element. You’re not drowning in clothes and you can still feel feminine. I tried to find that balance between comfy, functional, and sexy.

Which styles would SZA and Ella Mai?

Ella Mai is an oversize girl so she’s probably love the bomber jacket. SZA is active so she would love the bike shorts and body suits.

What are some of the trends you're loving and hating right now?

I love that clothes are getting bigger and comfier, the revival of that late 90s, early 2000s aesthetic is coming back. You’re seeing a lot of heavier fabrics, relaxed silhouettes and it’s just comfortable. We don’t need the rhinestone shirts but I appreciate the super distressed denim or even the classic 501 Levi's and oversize hoodies.

I'm waiting for the day skinny jeans die, I’m so over it. The super-stretch denim, I’m over that, too. I just want to see things going back to being simpler. I keep coming back to this word but comfy.
