by Patricia HandschiegelVisit my StylehiveSee all my outfits on StyleDiaryQ: What kind of hangers should I use in my closet?
A: The most important part of organizing the
clothing you hang in your closet is the type of hanger you use. Anything too
flimsy will buckle under the weight of certain items (like jeans), anything too
thick or heavy can make hanging certain shirts and dresses more difficult. A
good rule of thumb is to go with the best slim, durable hanger you can afford.
I rely on the standard tubular plastic style, found in bunches of 10 for under
$10.00 at stores like Target, because they hold clothing well and are easy to
use. You can find the same in a rainbow of colors at the Container Store to
customize in a single color, like pink or purple. Use clip style for pants and
strapless items to avoid creasing.
