TIP OF THE DAY: Put your clothes away

The weekend is about to start and I´m sure all of you are making plans as we speak. Weekends, in my eyes, are made for relaxing and taking a break from it all. This obviously means for many, getting all dressed up and hitting the town to meet friends, lovers or whoever.

However, the process of getting ready might be a bit of a nightmare for some -I include myself in this statement. When we don´t know what to wear we get a little frustrated, so what we do is we try on many outfits, because the odds tell us that the more outfits we create, the more chances there are that we will be happy with at least one of them. The thing is, is that once we've found the perfect outfit, we realize that a bomb has exploded on our bed. That´s right, I know you've been there too, our entire wardrobe is sitting on our bed.

The tip here is simple, make enough time to put your clothes away before heading out the door so that when you come home you don´t find yourself throwing the pile of clean clothes onto the floor in order to get into bed. What will this prevent? Well, if you put your clothes away before going out they will stay clean, wrinkle free and tidy.

I think something else worth mentioning in regards to this, is that it´s a good idea to put a routine in place when it comes to putting your clothes away at any time of the week. We normally find a spot in our bedrooms, like a chair, to start piling worn clothes. We say to ourselves that when it gets too big, we will organize them back in our closets. However, If only you timed yourself putting your clothes away on a daily basis, you would realize it didn't even take 5 minutes and it takes a lot of stress out of the weekend...Make it a challenge!
