Minimalism or expressive accents?

Lately I’ve been rethinking my whole approach to getting dressed. For years I stuck to strict minimalism — neutral colors, simple silhouettes, almost no visible details. It felt safe and easy. But recently I started paying more attention to how small leather accents can completely shift an outfit. I was browsing https://bleakandsleek.shop/collections/belt and it got me thinking about how even one well-made belt can become the focal point without making the look feel overloaded. So now I’m honestly torn. Is minimalism really about removing all accents, or is it about choosing just one expressive element and letting it speak? How do you personally balance simplicity and statement pieces?
