Saving Water & An Oufit
by Alyssandra Baker
 | One of the best ways to tell if your clothes are "dirty" is to smell them. There's no need to go around wearing the same t-shirt five times in a row, but wash your jeans every other time your wear them, this reduces fading, and saves tons of water. Also, try wearing PJ's more than once. If you can keep your clothes clean, there's no shame in saving if for later! |
