Capsule wardrobe: yes. Minimizing your clothing's impact on your mental space: yes. Ordering things from Amazon: no. Throwing things in the trash as soon as they're stained or need light mending: terrible advice!! Mend before you spend, people, and don't shop on Amazon if you can avoid it at all (which can be done 99% of the time)
