Forget spring cleaning: freshen up your wardrobe at the end of the year - Brit + Co

The year is drawing to a close and it is difficult to escape the "with the old, with the new" mentality. Now is a good time to reconsider what will and won't work for you and set serious goals for the New Year. And with all of this general thinking, it's important to organize yourself, starting with your wardrobe. We don't know about you, but we think better when things are okay and we have some air to breathe. We've put together some tips to clean up clutter, freshen up your clothes, and bring a sense of calm to your life.

Make a careful change

You've probably heard it before: most of us wear 10% of our clothes 90% of the time. This means that many things in your closet never leave the hanger or shelf. Time to clean up your stuff and be honest, which you will probably never use again. Decide what you want to keep (trends, classics and wardrobe essentials), what to give away or sell and also what needs to be repaired (like this LBD with the broken hook and eye fastener). Take off anything that can't be repaired, is badly worn, doesn't fit, or is no longer your style. They also do a lot of things you need for laundry or dry cleaning, which brings us to the next point.

Freshen up your old clothes with the right detergent

Clothes that have been lying in the back of the closet for a long time can smell musty. Freshen up and enliven your old favorites worth keeping by gently washing them; You don't need to use a strong smelling detergent. Indeed, if you have sensitive skin, you should avoid using perfumed detergents entirely. This can cause itching and irritation of the skin. The same goes for the dyes in the formula (your detergent doesn't have to be blue to clean your clothes). Wash your clothes with a hypoallergenic formula like Arm & Hammer Sensitive Skin Free & Clear Liquid Detergent , which is made without any dyes, fragrances or preservatives. It offers powerful cleansing, but is also considered a great option for sensitive skin. It received a 100 percent rating from SkinSafe , a program developed with the Mayo Clinic to help people with sensitive skin identify products that are less likely to make their skin worse. Being 100% SkinSAFE certified means Arm & Hammer Free & Clear excludes 100% of SkinSAFE's top skin allergens. Goodbye itching, skin; Hello, clean clothes.

Update your hangers

Mismatched hangers can make a closet look unkempt. Hanging clothes on hangers of the same type and color is a small adjustment, but it works great and makes your wardrobe more organized and visually appealing. Whether you like wooden, velvet or white plastic hangers, pick one and stick with it.

Coordinate the colors of your clothes

It's another visual trick that makes even a small closet attractive. Sorting your clothes into coordinated color groups gives your wardrobe a neat look. It also helps you find clothes more easily. Do you need a black blazer? Go straight to the black section. This will save you time when you feel like you don't have one!

Know when to fold them

You will be hanging things like dresses, blouses, and dress pants, but what should you fold? (on the shelves in your closet, if you have one). Fold T-shirts, light knitwear, and sweaters that can lose their shape on a hanger. For powerful cleaning, wash with Soft Arm & Hammer Free & Clear detergent and bend straight out of the dryer to avoid creases. Jeans and leggings can also be folded, whether on the shelf or in the drawer.

Follow these tips and your clothes will be fresh, accessible, and ready to go, which means mornings in 2022 are sure to be a lot nicer. No problem!
