Emma Chamberlain: 从12岁起就梦想拥有像Hannah Montana一样装满衣物的衣橱,16岁开始赚钱后便沉迷于购物,尤其热衷于廉价的二手衣物和快时尚,导致衣橱爆满,选择困难,并产生焦虑感。她认为过去将拥有大量衣物等同于时尚,但实际上这导致她每天都穿着同样的衣服,因为整理衣橱和选择搭配太费时费力。她意识到自己存在严重的购物成瘾问题,并对过去过度消费的行为感到后悔和恶心。 她对衣橱进行了大规模清理,扔掉了90%的衣物,只保留了日常穿着且舒适的衣物,以及一些经典百搭的单品。清理衣橱后,她感到轻松和解脱,并重新审视了自己的时尚观和消费观念。她认为拥有更少的衣物反而更容易找到个人风格,并能更有效率地进行穿搭实验。她不再追求数量,而是注重质量和实用性,只购买自己真正喜爱且会反复穿着的衣物。 她反思了社会和媒体对穿着的压力,以及过度消费的根源在于被误导的观念。她认为过度消费不仅浪费资源,也对个人心理健康造成负面影响。她呼吁大家更理性地消费,减少浪费,并找到适合自己的消费方式。她强调自己并非极简主义者,但拥有更少的衣物让她感觉更好,并希望自己的经历能激励他人更负责任地消费。
