I have ADHD something I’m pretty open about on my social media but this is something that makes caring for my Lolita clothes pretty difficult from time to time and I wanted to share practical advice for making your life easier when you are taking care of your Lolita fashion clothes
1.) Have two laundry baskets, one for clothes that can go through the washer no problem and one for handwash only clothing that way you don’t accidentally ruin petticoats or brand
2.) Don’t be afraid of the washer for more sturdy pieces, but when in doubt line dry.
3.) On that note, have a place where you can easily hang things to dry, I’m blessed to have a porch with a clothesline but if you don’t have that invest in a drying rack that you can set next to a sunny window
4.) Get a clothing steamer, mini iron and ironing board and be sure to store it near your wardrobe so you will actually use it
5.) Pick one day of the week to accomplish hand washing tasks and stick to it that way your brand doesn’t sit in a ball for weeks on end
6.) Don’t be afraid to go professional with more tricky pieces
