Wardrobe Malfunction Kit

Act like a surgeon. Be efficient, effective, and ready to act upon the unexpected. By adopting this mantra (and living it out when necessary), I think you'll can save some time and effort when dealing with a problem, and reduce some anxiety & stress. And figure out ways to adopt the mantra in everyday life. So, every once in awhile, I'm going to write about how to apply this mantra to everyday life.

Hence, today, I present you with The Wardrobe Malfunction Kit. Stash these supplies in your car's glove comparement, purse or briefcase, the gym bag, or the office top drawer. Avoid ruining your day with coffee stains, pantyhose runs, and lost buttons but using these wardrobe survival essentials.

Club Soda and a small wash cloth. Pretreat small spills immediately so they don't become permanent stains. Pour the club soda on the stain. Gently blot out the stain. Buy the smallest bottle possible. Once its open, it goes flat and does not good.

Safety Pins. Keep things together when your button pops, the bra strap comes undone, or the arm of your eyeglasses disconnects with the frame. Stash a small assortment(e.g, small gold, black, larger silver) in a tin.

Button Pins. Skip the task of sewing of a button. Avoid threading a needle. Slip a button pin into your buttonhole. It's like an earring for your buttonhole.

Nippits. Save yourself the embarrassment of "high beam" moments. Let your winning smile stop traffic instead. Agree. Awkward to talk about, but easy to address and nice to know there is a solution.

Party Feet. Rescue your feet when your workday shoes give you blisters or burning soles. Nice!

Instant Stain Remover. Eliminate tougher, dried on stains (e.g, coffee, ketchup, chocolate, and ink). Try a Tide To Go pen or Shout wipes.

Garment Tape. Say goodbye to fallen hem lines. Avoid tripping on your pants.

Sewing Kit. Be ready for bigger clothing diasters like a torn hem.

Clear Nail Polish. Save a doomed manicure, stop a run in your pantyhouse, or save your shoelace from further unraveling, with a quick dollop of fast drying nail polish.

Pain Reliever. You'll be everyone's best friend if you can alleviate pain and suffering from a cold, headache or aching muscle.
