Boxes, bags, piles on the floor – what are you gonna do with all these bras? Never fear, I\u2019m here to tell you how to store your bra wardrobe! How you store your bras will depend on a few different factors.<\/span><\/p>\n

Type<\/span><\/h4>\n

Different kinds of bras require different storage methods. Seamed bras and sports bras are generally fine to keep in a drawer. Be sure to do the hooks up to keep them from snagging any lace or embellishments. A t-shirt bra with molded cups (like Elomi\u2019s Bijou, right) should hang from the straps or be stored in a drawer \u201csunny-side up.\u201d If you invert the cups, you\u2019ll find that they wrinkle over time, defeating the purpose of buying a smooth bra in the first place!<\/span><\/p>\n

Rotation<\/span><\/h4>\n

If you only have a few bras and wear them all every week, you\u2019ll want to store them in a way that\u2019s easy to get at. But if you\u2019re a bit of a collector, you may find that there are some bras you wear a ton and some that are saved for special occasions or certain outfits. Or perhaps your size fluctuates, so your bra wardrobe spans a few different sizes. Bras that aren\u2019t in your regular rotation can be put away until it\u2019s their time to shine. I have a few bras that don\u2019t fit me now but may again in the future, and I stow those on a shelf in a plastic tote from Canadian Tire. It\u2019s not fancy, but it separates them from the bras I actually wear. And it works for me!<\/span><\/p>\n

Habits<\/span><\/h4>\n

Be honest with yourself: what can you realistically commit to? If you\u2019re a clothes-on-the-floor type, you\u2019re probably not going to suddenly start organizing your bras by type in a closet or drawer. But maybe you could develop a habit of throwing your bra over the back of a chair at the end of the day. The best habit is the one that works for you, so don\u2019t get too caught up on doing it \u201cright.\u201d Yeah, it\u2019s nice to keep your lingerie in good condition, but we\u2019re not saving lives here, and \u201cright\u201d is a spectrum.<\/span><\/p>\n

Space<\/span><\/h4>\n

I don\u2019t mean to brag, but I have an enormous closet. It\u2019s got loads of room to hang things, and my dresser lives in there too. (Okay, that was kind of a brag.) My point is that I have the space to hang my small bra wardrobe, so I do. I\u2019m not super precious about it; they all hang by their straps on the same hanger. When I had less closet space, I used an over the door hanger. Maybe you\u2019re blessed with an abundance of dresser drawers. You could dedicate one to lingerie, or be all KonMari about it and subdivide the drawer into categories.<\/span><\/p>\n

Whichever method you choose, the goal is the same: to keep your bras in good shape as long as possible and make it easy to wear what you love. Because life\u2019s too short for crappy lingerie!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
