What are some tips for preventing costume jewelry from tarnishing?
Fashion is an evolving industry, and every year, we see the emergence of several new trends. However, not every fashion trend suits everyone’s taste or budget. That’s why every girl needs to have some life hacks to help her stay stylish and chic without breaking the bank or compromising comfort. In this article, we’ll share ten weird fashion life hacks every girl should know.
1. Use Hairspray to Keep Your Clothes in Place
You put on your favorite dress but notice that it keeps riding up, revealing more than you intended. You could use tape, but that might strip the dress’s fabric. Instead, try hairspray. Spray a little on your thighs or wherever your dress seems to ride up, and it will stay in place.
2. Use Nail Polish to Stop Button Threads from Unraveling
Buttons are essential in your wardrobe, but when a thread unravels, it can be frustrating. You could tie it off with a knot, but that looks unsightly. Get a clear or matching colored nail polish and brush it over the top of the unraveled thread to keep it in place.
3. Use Double-Sided Tape to Keep Clothing from Sliding
If you’re wearing a top or dress with a plunging neckline or a slit, double-sided tape can be your best friend. Apply it to your clothing’s edges to keep it in place and prevent any accidental exposure.
4. Use Clear Nail Polish to Prevent Costume Jewelry Tarnishing
Costume jewelry can be an affordable way to complete your outfit, but it can tarnish quickly. Apply a coat of clear nail polish on your costume jewelry to keep it looking new.
5. Use a Hair Straightener to Iron Collars
Do you have a collared shirt that refuses to lay flat? Use your hair straightener to iron it out. Clamp the straightener on the collar until it’s flat and smooth.
6. Use a Razor to Remove Fabric Pills
Pills are those annoying little balls of fluff that appear on clothes after just a few wears. Instead of buying a pill remover, grab a razor and gently run it over the fabric’s surface.
7. Use Baby Powder to Remove Stains
If you accidentally spill some wine or coffee on your clothes, baby powder can be your savior. Sprinkle some on the stain, and let it sit for a few minutes before brushing it off. The powder helps absorb the stain, making it easier to rinse off later.
8. Use a Rubber Band to Expand a Tight Waistband
If you have a favorite skirt or pair of pants that feels too snug around the waist, use a rubber band to make it more comfortable. Loop the rubber band through the buttonhole and around the button, and you’re good to go.
9. Use a Belt to Make an Oversized Shirt Fitted
Oversized shirts can be comfortable, but sometimes you want a more fitted look. Try belting your shirt at the waist to cinch it in and create a more defined silhouette.
10. Use Vaseline to Shine Your Shoes
Do you have a scuff mark on your shoes that won’t come off? Apply a little Vaseline to the scuff and rub with a cloth to remove it. Vaseline can also shine your shoes, giving them a polished look.
