"When I first started my style career in Los Angeles, I spent a lot of time in the home closets of celebrities, clearing out gifting suite swag and still-tagged designer shoes. These celebrity closets seemed to share a few distinct characteristics, and, deep within the dark cherry oak rooms, I learned a few tricks of the starlet trade.\nAmong them: Wooden hangers are a must and color coordinating clothes makes it easier to choose-and-run. And above all, always, always have your clothes smelling fresh.\nPinterestFacebookThese close weren&amp;#39;t just from-the-laundromat or washer/dryer fresh, but they all shared a certain scent that I&amp;#39;ve only experienced in the closets of celebs. Often, celebrities don&amp;#39;t do their own laundry. It&amp;#39;s sent away, or they have a house manager who takes care of the logistics. As a non-celebrity, I was inspired to attempt replicating the smell and create a Hollywood haven in my glamorous (albeit starving artist) boudoir. Enter the Big Detergent Debate.\nI had heard of The Laundress, a collection of speciality detergent, before. Its woodsy and fresh scents had me sold. My clothes and sheets smell incredible, yet my wallet is out a lot for a bottle of detergent, whose price equals nearly a quarter of my cell phone bill. I also gave Vaska&amp;#39;s Herbatergent a go. With its faint smell of lavender, I enjoyed how it made my cotton sheets feel and smell. Plus, Vaska did a hardcore cleaning job with the soft touch of an eco-friendly line.\nUltimately, my dad has always taught me to be more practical about overspending. We grew up with my grandmother hanging clothes on the line with wooden clothespins between buildings in Queens, N.Y., which is why my father&amp;#39;s winning combo of Arm &amp;amp; Hammer with a scoop of OxiClean and an outside line-dry beats out the rest&amp;#8212;it claims the title for keeping clothes looking and smelling clean. Sure, the combo may not be the washing ways of a celebrity, but I guarantee it shines in simplicity.\nPhoto: The Laundress"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
