Fall Behind on the Laundry? That’s Fine Because Today is “Clashing Clothes Day”
Fall Behind on the Laundry? That’s Fine Because Today is “Clashing Clothes Day”
The fourth Thursday of every January is “Clashing Clothes Day.” Created as an opportunity to thumb your nose at fashion and wear whatever you want, the holiday has lost a bit of its rebelliousness over time. Fashion being fashion, this holiday has been embraced by garment industry experts and turned into a trend instead.
So, instead of looking like you got dressed in the dark or ran out of matching clothes, your outfit for Clashing Clothes Day may set you apart as a fashionista.
What if it was unintentional and due to a lack of clean clothing? That’s okay because today gives you a free pass to look funkier than usual. As one expert writes:
“Today is merely a day to have fun with your outfit and show up in the brightest, silliest of hues, without the fashion police raining on your parade.”

Experts have even gone so far as to say that taking a coffee break is essential for maintaining business ties. It also enhances performance and increases cognitive efficiency.”
Does a coffee break reduce the risk of spills and stains, though? Nope. So, let’s see how to address this crisis of coffee loss, or more appropriately, how to remove coffee (or tea) stains on clothing.
