The Easy Way to Get the Correct Tie Length

The correct length for a tie changes over time as fashion changes. However, for a classic look, the tie should end at the middle of your belt buckle. For many men, getting it to the right length the first try can be a challenge, especially for those who are new to wearing ties or exploring different tie knots.

I recently learned about a new tool called Eazytie. It is a gadget that will make it easier to get your tie knot tied at the right length, saving you time and frustration in the morning.

Deodorant or Antiperspirant Marks on Clothing How to Get Rid of Them

I think it has happened to all of us at one time or another. Even the clear gel antiperspirants often leave white marks on our clothing. If you have found an antiperspirant that doesn’t leave a mark, I would love to hear about it.

The good thing although this can be frustrating, it is also easy to remove. Rub an old pair of panty hose over the area and the marks should vanish quickly.

Never Let Them See You Sweat

Visible perspiration is not only embarrassing for you and those around you, it can leave clothing stained and discoloured.

Fashion Tape Quick Fix for Hems

Leaving the house and just noticed your hem coming down? As a certified professional image consultant my first suggestion would be to change into another outfit. However, in some circumstances this just isn’t possible. Instead of pulling out the safety pins or the duct tape…

Fashion Tape again, is the better solution. It will be less visible and do a better job then a homemade remedy.

How to Keep Your Bra Straps from Showing

Over the past few years, a popular look for women has been wearing layered tank tops and casual camisoles with the bra straps showing. Although there may be a time and place for this look, it isn’t appropriate for every occasion. Unfortunately, many of us have a problem with bra straps slipping. If your budget or body shape doesn’t allow you the option for purchasing multiple bra styles, there are several great solutions:

Bra clips (which are available under a number of different names) are a plastic clip which will clip the bra straps together, holding them in the center of your back. http://www.thestrapper.com

When your bra style has the option for changing the straps, clear plastic bra straps work well. They stay in place and generally aren’t noticeable even when you are moving around.

Fashion Tape can also work to keep your bra straps in place.

Wardrobe Mishaps – Fashion Tape to the Rescue

If you have ever looked down and noticed that the buttons on your blouse or shirt were pulling causing your clothing to gape:

Fashion Tape is the answer. It is a two sided tape that can be used to hold two pieces of fabric together. It also sticks to the skin holding straps, plunging neckline or even hosiery… to your skin. Here is one resource: http://www.essentialbodywear.com
