Washer and Compact Clothing Collection

In a small one-bedroom apartment, nestled amidst the bustling city, lives a multi-talented individual who has mastered the art of living with less. As a photographer, blogger, small business coach, and work-from-home professional, this individual's life is a whirlwind of client meetings, creative meet-ups, photo shoots, errands, and dates with her husband. Yet, amidst the chaos, she has found a way to streamline her wardrobe and laundry routine.

When she adopted a capsule wardrobe seven months ago, she was concerned about doing laundry more frequently and if her clothes would wear out faster. However, to her relief, her clothes have not worn out any faster, and she has managed to maintain her wardrobe in good condition.

The key to her success lies in her careful choices. She avoids buying clothes that are dry clean only and opts for washable and dryable fabrics. She also plans to wear sturdier clothes when she will be outside or sweating to minimize wear and tear. Interestingly, she frequently wore the same clothes over and over again, even when she had a larger wardrobe.

Her laundry routine is simple yet effective. She washes everything on delicate and uses very gentle, natural soaps. To account for shrinkage in the wash, she buys certain clothes a bit larger. She does a quick, small load of laundry once a week, and her attitude towards laundry has improved, feeling like a no-big-deal habit.

In her wardrobe, you'll find approximately 12 pieces of workout/lounge clothes, with 6 tops and 6 bottoms. She wears these at home to avoid wearing out her capsule wardrobe. She also avoids buying running shorts with briefs built into them to reduce the need for washing.

The individual's household consists only of herself and her husband, and they have a total of 5 bathroom towels. The size of their washing set is approximately 40 x 20 x 15 centimeters.

As she continues to live her simplified life, she invites her readers to share their tips on doing laundry with less in the comments section. After all, everyone can benefit from a little bit of laundry efficiency!
