The Laundry Series 1: Have Less Clothes

This is part of a series of recs for those who are challenged by laundry. You can make the laundry process much, much easier by following a few unconventional techniques.

This one alone will get you very far:

Have less clothes.

This rec has done wonders for my life. I have an active wardrobe of about 30 pieces. I rarely need new things; my house feels spacious; and packing and laundry (and getting dressed!) are all a breeze. I also save a ton of money this way——and yet, since I adopted this system, someone told me I had the fanciest clothes she had ever seen.

A minimalist closet——whatever the aesthetic——makes laundry lighter and life easier.

Easy enough to say. But how exactly do you make this happen? What if you love clothes? What if you are drowning in too many clothes already? What if you need lots of clothes because you hate to do laundry?

The next few recs are for you.
