Clothing Care FAQ
Have questions about keeping your wardrobe in top shape? Our most common care questions are answered here. These tips are designed to make your daily routines easier and your clothing last longer, saving both money and effort. Whether you're dealing with tricky fabrics or unsure how to store your seasonal garments, we've got clear, actionable guidance that makes sense for real life.
How often should I wash my jeans?
Denim should be washed only when necessary to preserve its color and structure. Spot clean between washes and air dry when possible. Overwashing fades color and wears down the fabric prematurely. If odor or dirt builds up, turn them inside out, use cold water, and avoid the dryer.
Can I machine wash silk?
Only if the care label allows it. Always use a mesh bag, cold water, and a delicate cycle with silk-friendly detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, and do not wring. It's best to air dry flat on a towel and iron on low inside-out with a cloth barrier.
What's the best way to store knitwear?
Fold knit garments and store them in breathable containers. Avoid hanging, which can stretch out the fibers over time. Use tissue paper between folds to prevent creases, and add lavender or cedar to protect from moths while keeping your wardrobe fresh.
Seasonal Color Inspiration
Choosing the right colors for your clothing not only reflects the season but also complements your mood and wardrobe harmony. Below are some seasonal color palettes to consider for curating an elegant and practical collection that evolves with the weather. Color isn't just style — it's psychology. Wearing tones that reflect the season can uplift your mood, enhance your presence, and bring a sense of balance to your outfits.
Spring
Soft pastels like blush pink, mint green, and lavender reflect freshness and renewal. These gentle tones mimic blooming nature and pair well with natural fabrics like linen or cotton. Ideal for layering as temperatures shift.
Summer
Vibrant tones like coral, turquoise, and lemon yellow express energy and warmth. They reflect sunlight beautifully and can brighten any outfit. Lightweight dresses, cotton shirts, and swimwear shine in these uplifting shades.
Autumn
Earthy hues such as rust, olive, and mustard bring out the richness of fall. These grounded colors complement heavier textures like wool and flannel. Perfect for layering and transitioning from warmth to cool evenings.
Winter
Cool shades like navy, deep burgundy, and charcoal offer elegance and depth. These tones reflect the sophistication of winter layering — from cashmere to heavy coats — and blend beautifully with silver accents or minimalist silhouettes.
