第1700期:Should you build a capsule wardrobe?

Do you ever struggle with choosing your outfit in the morning? If you have a full wardrobe yet still feel you don't have anything to wear, you might want to build yourself a capsule wardrobe!您是否曾经为早上选择衣服而苦恼？如果你的衣柜已经装满了，但仍然觉得没有什么可穿的，你可能想为自己打造一个胶囊衣橱！So, what is this? Put simply, a capsule wardrobe is a small selection of items of clothing that complement each other, and are therefore interchangeable. Key to the capsule wardrobe is solid basics, like plain tops, and, ideally, neutral colours, because they make combinations easier. Think about the versatility of a simple pair of denim jeans. They can be combined with trainers and a t-shirt for a casual look or a blazer paired with heels, or loafers, if you want to look more sophisticated. Fashion bloggers also talk about timeless classics – picture a luxury black handbag that will suit any occasion and won't go out of style.那么，这是什么？简而言之，胶囊衣橱是一小部分相互补充的衣物，因此可以互换。胶囊衣橱的关键是扎实的基本款，例如纯色上衣，以及理想的中性色，因为它们让组合更容易。想想一条简单的牛仔裤的多功能性。它们可以搭配运动鞋和 T 恤打造休闲造型，或者如果您想看起来更精致，可以搭配西装外套搭配高跟鞋或乐福鞋。时尚博主还谈论永恒的经典——想象一款适合任何场合且不会过时的奢华黑色手提包。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 advantage too – it can reduce the amount of fast fashion. Fast fashion refers to clothes which are trendy for just a short time, so are quickly replaced by newer trends. This results in cheap and poor-quality clothing which has huge environmental costs as waste goes to landfill, resulting in an increase in pollution. According to UK clothes waste charity TRAID, the average garment is worn just 10 times before being disposed of. So, having a capsule wardrobe with long-lasting and high-quality clothes should help reduce this, even if it means paying more in the first place.但为什么打造胶囊衣橱会有好处呢？好吧，通过限制你的选择，选择穿什么会变得容易得多，但还有另一个好处——它可以减少快时尚的数量。快时尚是指流行时间很短，很快就会被更新的潮流所取代的衣服。这导致廉价和劣质的服装随着废物进入垃圾填埋场而产生巨大的环境成本，从而导致污染增加。根据英国服装垃圾慈善组织 TRAID 的数据，平均每件衣服只穿 10 次就被丢弃。因此，拥有一个装有经久耐用且质量上乘的衣服的胶囊衣橱应该有助于减少这种情况，即使这首先意味着要付出更多。Fashion and lifestyle magazine, Vogue, says 'building an excellent capsule wardrobe takes time and patience'. But, if you want to reduce waste and have some extra time in the morning, it might be time to start building!时尚和生活方式杂志 Vogue 说“打造出色的胶囊衣橱需要时间和耐心”。但是，如果你想减少浪费并在早上有一些额外的时间，可能是时候开始建造了！词汇表outfit 全套服装capsule wardrobe “胶囊衣橱”，极简主义衣橱complement 为…增色，相互补充interchangeable 可互换使用的，可交替的basics 基本款plain 朴素的，素色的top 上衣neutral colour 中性色combination 搭配versatility 有多种用途trainers 运动鞋casual 休闲的blazer 正式的西装外套pair 搭配heels 高跟鞋loafers 乐福鞋，平底便鞋sophisticated 成熟高雅的timeless classic 永不过时的经典suit 适合，适宜于go out of style 过时fast fashion 快速时尚trendy 时髦的trend 潮流garment （一件）衣服
