Some Tips to Keep Your Clothes Looking Nice

By Lyn Meloni

Today I want to go over a very simple fashion tip that you can use starting today. The tip is simple. If you want to look good, keep your clothes looking nice!

It's a very simple concept, but a lot of us don't really do it! We come home from a long day and throw our clothes in the corner. Or we wash our clothes every other day and wear them out quicker than we should.

So why is it important to take good care of your clothing? Well, one big reason is that if your clothes look nice, you look nice! And it's been shown that if you like the way you look you'll perform better. This goes for all areas of life whether it be work, relationships, or anything else where you want to look your best.

So here are a few simple tips you can use to keep your clothes looking nice

1- Don't over wash. Too many people wash their clothes after only wearing them once. This will just wear your clothes out fast.

2- Wash in cold water. You'll have to use a cold water detergent for this one, but it will keep your cotton clothes looking nice longer and help them retain their shape.

3- Use nice hangers Wire hangers tend to just cause lines to form in the shoulders of your shirts and coats. Use a thicker hanger for clothes that have a more defined shoulder such as jackets and sport coats. They're more expensive, but they'll save your shoulders from looking funny.

4- Hang your clothes instead of fold them. Your clothes will also look better if you hang them instead of fold them and cram them into a drawer.

I hope those tips help you to keep your clothes looking nice longer. There are a lot of things you can do, but these should get you started.
