How To Protect Your Clothes

Beauty : Clothes And Fashion

If you want your clothes to last a long time, then make sure that you take good care of them. Here's how:

Always minimise the risk of clothes tearing in the wash by ensuring that shirts and other items that contain buttons are unbuttoned when they go into the wash.

Ensure also that you dry clean items that need it as soon as possible - the professionals can nearly always help prolong the life of a garment.

Don't wash at too high a temperature - a common mistake, and also don't wash for too long. These can hurt fabrics, shrink them and help them to lose colour.

A common mistake people make is to leave belts in their garments when hanging up. Try not to do this as it can stretch the fabric due to the weight of the belt.

If you have old shoes, then remember that you can get them repaired and reheeled fairly cheaply - and get a new pair of shoes into the bargain effectively!
