The Chic Minimalist

On modern life, and the quiet art of knowing your own mind

I’m Michele Connolly, essayist and award-winning author.

At The Chic Minimalist I write about modern life—relationships, boundaries, taste, and the small decisions that shape our lives. Always honest. Occasionally mortifying.

Here's a taste:

• How to Stay Friends with People Who Are Wrong
• Announcement! I'm Going to Stop Making Announcements
• I've Been Closing Doors
• I Archived My Entire Instagram and the World Hasn't Ended (Yet)
• My Filofax, My Self

Come join me.
