Cleanin' Those Whites
Tuesday, May 25, 2010 at 11:06AM I was fortunate enough to grow up with a mom who is a true champion of all things laundry room (Note: She even ironed and pressed my soccer T-shirts so that I always looked my best!). Despite the odds that I would inherit this useful domestic skill, I was at my core a laundry room delinquent.
The RSP did what most newly minted professionals in New York City do upon entering the working world --- I sent ALL my clothes to the wash and fold and dry cleaners. After six or seven trips to the dry cleaners, I was disgusted that my go-to white work shirts had yellowed from the chemicals and god only knows what else during their trips to the dry cleaners. Enter the RSP's Mom to the rescue. She taught me her secret sauce on how to launder my white shirts at home so that they last longer and look like new for each repeated wear to the office.
I am excited to welcome our second guest blogger, the RSP's mom, to share her tricks of the trade on keeping those white work shirts squeaky clean.

Cleanin' Those Whites. By RSP Guest Blogger and Mom, Leslie
One staple of a business wardrobe is a white blouse/work shirt. It should look like new every time you wear it and it can! As a busy office She-Office-Ninja, the easiest way for this to happen is to send it to the dry cleaners. But this is not the best way to have a crisp, white shirt. Reason....if you send a white shirt to the cleaners, it yellows and looks dingy after the first few trips to the cleaners. If you take that dingy looking shirt and wash it yourself, either by hand or in a washing machine, your white shirt will "freshen up" or better yet don't EVER send it to the dry cleaners. Either wash it by hand in the sink or in the washing machine on a regular cycle and always hang it on a hanger to dry. Never use the dryer. For detergent in the machine, I use Tide with Bleach Alternative (the white cap). Always check for spots and use Resolve Spray 'N Wash if needed....don't forget to check inside the collar. Then use a spray starch such as Magic Sizing (light body) to iron it and your white blouse will stand up and cheer!!!
