You may have noticed that the New Year has inspired in us a whole lot of starting fresh and cleaning slate. The time is right for ridding our lives of the old and irrelevant, and making room for only the essentials.
So it’s as good a time as any to talk about a not so stylish and slightly sensitive subject – your dirty laundry. I’m referring to your clothes and a place to put them prior to washing.
If last year’s hamper or laundry basket is Rubber Maid or something similar, please listen up. There are alternatives – stylish containers for soiled garments that don’t need to be hidden away in the closet or under the bed.
Here are some of the hippest hampers we could round up. Choose wisely.
