Stylish Saturday Clothing Care

Alright so here it is 11:00 at night.  I am sitting here soooo TIRED, blank mind, trying to come up with something great.  I grab my fashion books and start thumbing through for some fashion blogger ideas.  I come across clothing care.  Hallelujah.  On to the goods.  Clothing Care.  First of all sort your clothing!!  Second take your time don’t just throw things in.  This one is especially important for us mommas.  I find myself throwing things in and trying to run away.  Now I have a system and it works great.  All clothes that require special care get separated into different hampers.  It’s great.  On to the next step.  When it comes to washing pay attention to the labels.  Here is a chart that explains all the crazy little images you find on your tags.  Follow the labels to extend the life of your clothing.

   A few more details are the cleaning and finishing agents you use.  Obviously there is laundry detergent, bleach, fabric softener, and starch.  I am pretty sure I don’t need to explain any of these to you. Obviously laundry detergent cleans, bleach bleaches, fabric softener softens and removes static electricity, starch adds crispiness and can help prevent clothing from wrinkling.
  Finally at the change of every season do a once over on your wardrobe.  Check for missing buttons, stains, broken zippers,  ripped seams,  and ill fitted clothing.  Fix any broken or missing items and donate or dispose of clothing that doesn’t fit or can’t be repaired.  These little clothing care tips should help you keep your clothing fresh and your wardrobe looking fashion blogger good.

      Awe yay!! I’m glad I could help. I know what you mean though they all look so similar and when you are in a hurry (which most of us are) it’s tough.

Have you been to Ensenada? What’s your favorite spots? We had a great time on our Ensenada excursion on our Carnival cruise. Including rain, pina coladas, La Bufadora and wine tasting at Santa Tomas winery. If you are in SoCal I recommend making your own way across the border to Ensenada.
