When to Fold ’Em

If you’re a vintage fan or a streetwear specialist, you know how satisfying it is to slide open your closet doors and see a neat row of clothes. Even though hanging clothes saves space and is aesthetically pleasing, some pieces prefer to be folded.

Heavy items, like sweaters and hoodies, should be folded to prevent them from stretching out. Folding embellished items, like bedazzled jeans and tops, can keep them from snagging other clothes.

When to Walk Away

Even with the best care, every piece of clothing has a lifespan. Donating and selling clothes that you don’t wear anymore can free up space for things you’ll actually love wearing.

When to Run (to the Laundry Machine)

Walk past any laundromat in your city, and you’ll see puzzled-looking people holding fuzzy sweaters or bedazzled jeans. You can almost hear their thoughts: How often should you wash denim? Who decided to write laundry tags in hieroglyphics? This tag says hand wash only, but it’s probably fine, right?

With a little preparation, you’ll become a laundry pro. If you’re washing zip up cropped womens hoodies, turn them inside out to prevent snagging and keep their color bright. Sort your clothes by fabric type to make drying easier, and pre-treat stains with detergent, or a baking soda and lemon juice blend.
