Omtimizing clothing related routines What is your best "hacks" for dealing with cloths? Here are a couple of mine: - I have several IKEA blue bags for different types (sports, white, bed+towels) - hangers are used right after I take the cloths out of the machine (all of my cloths are hung) I haven't figured out what to do with cloths I put on for few hours and that I want to use again instead of moving them directly to the washer pile. |
I had many problems in the past when choose which garment use. The most difficult was combine all together, so I decided to buy clothes from only a single brand, and only leave the accessories free from the "1 brand method". So I eliminated the problems of combining clothes.
The truth of this experience is that this worked but then I realized some things:
1. It's a double sharp knife idea. Because when you find a really lovely cloth piece from another brand, you start switching clothes to combine better. It hurts your economy every time you want to change idea.
2. I became an official "douchebag" for buying a clothing brand that is associated with douche/snob people, and this little details was unknown to me until some day a friend of mine told me: dude, that brand is for douchebags. It happened because point 1: browsing the web I saw a cool shirt and that lend me to compulsively buy everything in less than 2 months i was full of that brand clothes.
The direction I'm taking is more or less like Steve Jobs or other prominent people who didn't care about the clothing and they care more about the important stuff they want to make. In fact, many years ago I've meet Joi Ito and it surprised me he used the same clothing all the time, he has the same black shirts, black pants and it feels that he doesn't need to change anything to feel well. I want to take that kind of direction using clothes without any kind of visual brand or text messages and using the same models so I don't need to care about clothing anymore.
For the organization ones, I do use simple ikea furniture, piled by colors and tiers in this order: t1 shirts, t2 pants, t3 jerseys, hoodies.
tier 1 is a shoe shelf for the clean clothes: http://www.moebel-ideal.de/images/produkte/i55/5502-Schuhkip...
one box for underpants, one for shirts etc.
tier 2 is a buttler for the used but "clean" clothes: https://images.otto.de/asset/mmo/formatz/herrendiener-buchef...
tier 3 is a bag for dirty clothes
Thanks for sharing!
Most of the time it's full of clothes so it can't be seen lol
