A: I have been noticing some interesting topics that many YouTubers are talking about. There is a new hashtag about minimalism and it’s trending. Basically, when one KOL did a video on minimalist living tips and it went viral, then there will be tons of people follow on that topic and come up with their own ideas. It’s like the ice bucket challenge, the morning routine videos, 50 facts about me, and get ready with me, etc. Anyway, I just learned some interesting ideas that I would like to hear your thinking.
B：极简主义确实是这几年很火的话题啊，微博和哔哩哗哩上也有很多博主分享类似的内容，不如你先说说看，说不定各地博主对这个主题的看法也是英雄所见略同。
A: They might. Firstly, many YouTubers who would like to share their fashion looks, fashion tips and OOTD admit that they do lots of impulsive shopping for different reasons. Impulsive shopping basically means you just buy things whenever you feel sad, anxious or anything. However, the amount of happiness you get from buying an item or the time that happiness lasts is very little.2 In the end, you may wonder why I got this in the first place.
B：这确实没错。我们每个人其实或多或少都会有冲动消费的体验，事后又非常后悔，经常是花大价钱买很多完全用不到的东西，等到那股冲动劲儿没了，肠子都悔青了。这点真是无国界限制的。那这些视频对克服这种情绪有什么建议吗?
A: They suggest that if you made up your mind to lead a minimalist life, firstly, you need to start thinking whether you’re going to use this item, whether you need this item, is it necessary to get it or is it just that you want to have it whenever you go shopping. For example, you can make a shopping wish list before going out and buy things that are only in the list. Search those things online to do a thorough homework instead of buying the first item you see.
B：好好做功课确实很有用，有时候我们发现自己买回家的很多衣服都穿不了，不是没有能穿的场合，就是根本不适合日常穿着。做好功课就相当于货比三家，这样才能挑选出最适合和最实用的。而且买衣服之前一定要试，不能凭空想象，不然很容易出现“买家秀”和“卖家秀”的尴尬。
A: And you definitely want to avoid that embarrassment. The last tip is to go to thrift stores. If you do need something but you don’t feel like spending too much money on it, you can definitely find an alternative in a second-hand store. For the sake of so many aspects, we should be more conscious about what we purchase.
