Discarding your favourite dress because it has a stain that doesn’t wash away or not wearing your leather jacket because of the creases. We have some sassy fashion hacks up our sleeve that will come in handy in resolving these fashion problems we often face in everyday life. Here’s how to fix these at home without breaking a sweat.
Use a hair straightener for ironing collars
When you cannot find an iron, and spot a crease on your dress or shirt, your hair straightener can come to your rescue. Depending on the fabric, adjust the setting to low or high and then use it to iron out the crinkle. Hair straighteners work best for ironing collars as they get the creases out, and keep them stiff and in shape.
Remove yellow sweat stains this way
Often, a white top can have a yellow patch due to a sweat stain. But you can get rid of this with the help of lemon juice. Squeeze some lemon juice in a spray bottle and spray it on the yellow stain. Allow it to stay for 10 minutes and then put it for wash.
Get rid of oil stains from a handbag with this
Touching your purse with sweaty or dirty hands often leaves behind a stain that looks like an ugly blob on it, and might make it slightly greasy too. To get rid of this oily stain, use baby powder. Just dab some on the stain and then leave it overnight. By next morning, the talc would have absorbed the oil, making it appear as good as new. But remember, this works for oil stains and not dark marks of grease or paint.
How to break into new shoes
Bought a new pair of shoes that are a tad bit tight? An easy way to break into them without getting painful shoe bites is to first wear the thickest pair of socks you have. Next, wear your shoes and then use a hairdryer to heat them from a distance for 20 to 30 seconds. Now bend your feet up and down to loosen the tight spots. Then remove them and let them cool.
This is how you fix a blocked zipper
To unzip a blocker zipper, simply rub the teeth of the zip with either some Vaseline, a graphite pencil, or a soap bar. It will be smooth like before thanks to these quick remedies. In some cases, even candle wax works. All you need to do is rub the teeth with a candle to prevent the zipper from getting blocked.
Get rid of creases from your leather jacket
Even if you wear faux leather jacket, it can have creases when stored inside for too long. To avoid this, turn them inside-out and then fold and keep in your wardrobe. If you still find lines on your jacket, apply a drop of moisturiser on the crease using a Q-tip until you get rid of it.
