Blog_TakeCare_02 WASH LESS (WHEN YOU CAN)

If it’s spot-free and smelling fresh, skip the wash and hang it up. Washing less is just as good for your clothes as it is for our planet.

Blog_TakeCare_04 ALWAYS WASH COLD

When it’s time to take them for a spin, set the temp to cold. It’s the best way to keep that dreamy softness going–wash after wash.

Heat from the dryer can really take the life outta your faves. Try to get into the habit of hanging them to dry, old-school style.

Forget that laundry list of harsh chemicals–and spring for green, plant-based detergents. No doubt Mother Nature will thank you.

Take care,
