Simply Sophisticated Things

I adore a good list that is simple, but inspiring.  Lists of things that have a luxurious energetic feel to them really motivates me to keep elevating my everyday life.  There is an art to list making and creating quick ideas for the life that one wants to curate for themselves.  I wanted to create a space on the blog dedicated to some of these lists to inspire ideas for elevating everyday life. For today I wanted to explore things that are simply sophisticated.  Things that can immerse elegance and refinement into everyday surroundings and that we can work to incorporate into our lives for a finer way of living every day.  Here is a petite list of simply sophisticated things that can provide more elegance into everyday living.

Curating sophisticated surroundings takes time, but it will help reinforce the idea that you are simply a sophisticated woman who lives her life well every day in a more refined way. Create some ideas of your own about what you find sophisticated and then start to bring these things into your life and leaving out the things that does not fit. While I whole-heartedly believe that creating an elegant life is more about what we subtract rather than what we add, I use my simply sophisticated list to help guide my surroundings for a more elevated everyday experience.
