Fixing common and sometimes ignored dressing over sights can be easy.
Preserve a crisp hemline when hemming a pant or jeans by having a good tailor reattach the original hem so the original seam is in plain view and keeps the original shape at the bottom.
There’s nothing worse than a visible Ped, which tends to look matronly. To prevent blistered feet try partial Peds, (Hue Toe Covers $12 for 3 pairs at Macy’s) which will cover only the front half of the foot and provide a little padding.
Jackets, blazers, skirts, and some tops come with vents that are tacked together. Don’t forget to snip the threads, especially before taking a large step or reaching for a high shelf, which could rip the garment.
If your shirt shrunk a bit and the buttons are screaming to hold on, sew a small piece of Velcro between the buttons or use double stick tape. “You don’t want your coworkers staring at your chest, waiting for a button to pop off onto the conference table,” says Clinton Kelly, cohost of TLC’s What Not to Wear.
Even though no one may see them, I always encourage women to wear a red bra and panties to feel sensual. However, when wearing white, wear a bra and panties that are close to your skin color, not white.
Use a seam ripper to remove annoying tags or cut with small scissors right below the tag, especially on sheer blouses, scarves, or any article where the label shows.Remove labels from cuffs or handbags even though you may want to flaunt a designer name. It’s just tacky.
How about panty lines? A visible panty line will draw attention to your backside making it look larger. Wearing a thong may be one answer but another solution is to wear a brief with a flat seam that is only 1/8 inch wide. This will prevent them from cutting into your skin creating a bulge. Spandex briefs are also another alternative to give your bottom a better curve.
