Do you ever have difficulty choosing your clothes in the morning? If you have a full wardrobe (衣橱) but still feel you don’t have anything to wear, you might want to build yourself a capsule (胶囊) wardrobe!

So what is it? Put simply, a capsule wardrobe is a small part of clothes that complement (补充) each other, therefore they can change with each other. The key to a capsule wardrobe is basic clothing in solid colors, such as light shirts, better in neutrals (colors not bright or strong, such as grey or light brown), because they are easier to match. Think of the possibility of a simple pair of denim jeans. They can be matched with training shoes and a T-shirt for a casual look; or if you want to look more fashionable, match them with a blazer paired with heels. Fashion bloggers have also talked about timeless classics—think of a wonderful black handbag for any situation that won’t go out of style.

But why might it be beneficial to build a capsule wardrobe? Well, by limiting your choices, it can become much easier to choose what to wear, but there is another good point, too—it can cut down the amount of fast fashion. Fast fashion refers to clothes which are fashionable for just a short time, so they are quickly replaced by newer fashion. This results in cheap and poor-quality clothing which has large environmental costs as waste goes to landfill. Then there is more and more pollution. According to UK clothes waste charity TRAID, a piece of clothing is worn just 10 times on average before being thrown away. So, having a capsule wardrobe with long-lasting and high-quality clothes should help lower this, even if it means paying more in the first place.

Fashion and lifestyle magazine, Vogue, said “building an excellent capsule wardrobe takes time and patience”. But, if you want to cut down waste and have some extra time in the morning, it is time to start building!

A. A black handbag can be matched with any clothes.

B. The latest clothing is the key to a capsule wardrobe.
