Washing Clothes/Laundry

HeatherLynn · Gucci

I am completely awful and I think this might mean I have too many clothes, underwear, bras, etc., but I wash clothes rarely. Usually once a month (longer most times- like every 6 weeks for so). I hate doing laundry!!

Bastet · Kate Spade

Hubby and I do laundry about 2x/week. We need to do it more, though. We can go weeks without washing clothes, but then when it comes time to do laundry, we literally lose a Saturday because we're washing clothes all day. We're trying to throw in a load every other day or so, just to keep it manageable. The mind is willing but the body is lazy, I guess.

Maddie · Coach

Probably about once every 6 weeks. I'm awful. I have soooo much underwear specifically for this purpose and I never wear socks because I pretty much only wear Uggs or sandals.

I do 2 or 3 loads a week - FH is AWFUL and will also change clothes 3x a day! I don't understand how it's possible, considering he wears scrubs to work, that he manages to dirty 2 changes of regular clothes along with the scrubs everyday

zeitgeist4 · Gucci

I do it once a week for clothes.

erin · Chanel

my husband goes through clothes like nothing. i joke that he throws them "in the trash" (meaning laundry) after wearing something for a minute.

ideally, i should do laundry 2-3x per week, but it's more like once a week. sometimes i will go a few weeks and then all of the sudden i have like seven loads. insanity.

Cortney1982 · Chanel

Just my stuff, once or twice a week. I like to wear my favorite stuff frequently. I wear my pajamas two times before washing them, same goes to sweaters and jeans. It helps save water/electricity and the chore of washing.

I could have written this myself. I haaate doing laundry.

Hedvig · Coach

Once a week. I actually almost like doing laundry now that we have access to a nice, tidy laundry room in the basement of our building. They have about twenty washers and dryers there!

ILoveChoo · Hermes

I do about one per week, but DH does more. maybe like 3 loads? it's insane. we do our own laundry though... I don't trust him not to shrink mine and his take up too much space and are too heavy in the washer anyway.

Christine · Coach

I have tons of socks/underwear, so I could go without doing laundry for a month or so, but my bf does all of the laundry so I never worry about it! He does laundry about twice a week.

Cricket · Gucci

I do soooo much laundry. With 2 children, my husband and myself, there's always something to wash. I tend to let it pile up and do it 3/4 times a week.

wicked · Coach

We do it every two weeks. If we owned a washer/dryer we would do it more often. (I really despise laundromats)

bumblebee · Coach

me too, same. although sometimes i go for three weeks, if i know i'm going to take my stuff to my parents' house.

we do about three loads a week. usually two loads on saturday (dark and white) and i'll do one another day of the week (usually dark). it's the one chore that my bf will actually do, and i hate doing. the good thing is that i don't fold ANY of my clothes (my least favorite thing), so i will just hang from the drycleaners, or throw into my hamper (it's where i keep my CLEAN work out clothes). so it's pretty easy to put my clothes away.

also, a lot of times i'll take out whites from the dryer, so i can throw in the darks, and then put the whites back in the dryer, just so that i don't have to fold towels or my bfs stuff. a lot of times i'll take my stuff directly from the dryer and put it on, and leave the rest of the stuff in there... i hate putting it away!!!

luckylily · Gucci

I do maybe 1 load per week. I hate washing my clothes tho because I hate the way washing wears clothes out and effects the colors. Other than socks, underwear, and gym clothes, I wear thing many, many times before I wash them.

NCshopper · Hermes

I do laundry usually once a week or I let it go just slightly longer. I usually do whites, darks, and mediums. Hubby does his own laundry, so I don't have to worry about that.

laken1 · Hermes

Wow- i do at least a load every day.

atlgirl · Gucci

Once a week normally - light and dark colored clothes, so two loads. Sometimes about every ten days, if we're gone on vacation or just busy.

Sheets / towels are usually every other week. And whites, because it takes so long for us to have a full load, are usually once a month.

I LOVE doing laundry - it's my favorite chore (okay, it's my least detested chore *s*). I like the idea of all my clothes clean, and in the closet, ready for me to wear them. I know, I'm weird.
