Patrice J. Williams, an 'affordable lifestyle' expert explained exactly what you should be doing to pack your bags more efficiently on an appearance of Studio 1A.

"It's the concept of mixing and matching your wardrobe," she began, "[it] helps you pack smarter."

In short, you need to pick out three tops, bottoms and shoes that could all work together in any given combination.

"You're not overpacking," Patrice continued, "you're mixing and matching."

She also added that the 3-3-3 packing hack could 'easily' last you 'five or six days'.

Gemma explained: "Here's how I use the 3-3-3 method to create multiple different outfits using three tops, three bottoms, three shoes, three tops."

So, her three tops were a white t-shirt, a striped shirt and neutral jumper.

Bottoms-wise, Gemma opted for a black miniskirt, neutral trousers and white-washed denim jeans.

And, lastly, the shoes included black knee high boots, a neutral pair of Adidas Spezial trainers and black loafers.

"Let's see how many outfits I can put together," she finished up before showing cut-away clips of a whopping 14 outfits in total.

"I could go on," Gemma concluded the short clip before adding: "This is proof that a capsule wardrobe really does work."



She captioned the video: "Using the 3-3-3 method to create multiple outfits with 3 tops, 3 bottoms and 3 pairs of shoes. This is proof that a capsule wardrobe really does work and is worth investing in."

Viewers clearly couldn't wait to share their praise for the nifty little trick with one TikTok user writing: "This is such a game changer for traveling!"

A second chirped: "This is perfecto for traveling!"

"Love a good capsule wardrobe," penned a third, "working on mine now!"

"What a brilliant idea! Bookmarked for my next trip!" gushed a fourth while a fifth quipped: "What is this wizardry!"

"Okay you convinced me with this, I'm gonna try," added a final TikTok user.
