Why So Much Woe...It's December?

I saw this skirt in Grazia and I was like wow! It is from Urban Outfitters at £38 which is not bad. Well...I was very happy to discover that it is now in the sale for £25 which is amazing so I was about to add it to my basket when it noticed that it was hand wash only. My mum would never hand wash it for me and I don't have time to. I am far too lazy as well.

I then moved onto option 2 which was this skirt priced at £38 as well and £20 in the sale. But it is hand wash only as well. It was starting to bug me but I looked at the other skirt I saw.

Priced at £42 but now £25, I don't like it very much and it is dry clean as well. That made a rather abrupt end to my Internet shopping marathon so I went and gloated my woes to my dad while eating his Norwegian chocolate. he came back yesterday from a business trip and I was missing our little random conversations!

Why can't shops just make nice skirts that you can shove in the washing machine? Is it too hard? We don't all have personal maids and butlers waiting on our hand and foot who will clean every piece of clothing by hand in the sink. When will they realise this. They better keep the same designs though!
