10 Fashion Hacks to Fix Ruined Clothes  

Accidentally ruined your favourite blouse? Worry no more. From washing off the pizza stains to stretching out your too-small flats, we’ve listed down some of the easiest fixes to save you and your clothes from any fashion disaster.

1. Runny Tights. Solve your runny tights problem using your hairspray. Before putting them on, mist some hairspray all over your tights to keep them from running and make them last longer.

2. Oil Stains. Left some pizza grease on your favourite skirt? Get your trusty baby powder to soak up the grease. Just sprinkle some powder all over the stain and leave it for 30 minutes before washing it.

3. Foul Odour in Jeans. Got some stinky jeans problem? Then, simply toss your jeans in a Ziploc or plastic bag, and store them in the freezer overnight to remove the bad odour. The freezing temperature in the fridge can kill the odour-causing bacteria, and you don’t have to worry about your denim fading due to some overzealous washing.

4. Stuck Zipper. Fix your stuck zipper using some coconut oil. Just dip a cotton swab on the coconut oil and rub it along your zipper to loosen it up.

5. Deodorant Stains. Don’t stress out yourself with the deodorant stains on your favourite clothes any longer. Use some dryer sheets to remove the stains. Just lightly rub the white marks on the stains until it’s completely gone. Don’t worry, the dryer sheets won’t leave any residue on your clothes.

6. Foundation Stains. Easily fix this makeup stain problem using a shaving cream. Gently wipe a dollop of shaving cream on the stained area before washing it.

7. Loose Sunglasses. If you find that one arm of your sunglasses is a bit loose, and you happen to don’t have a tiny screwdriver with you, dab a clear nail polish over the hinge of the loose arm to temporarily tighten it.

8. Scratched Leather Shoes. Easily fix that annoying scratch on your leather shoes using your favourite moisturizer. Just grab a towel and rub a bit of lotion on your shoes to bring it back to life.

9. Pulled Thread. Pulled threads is what causes our dresses to start running, but easily fix this problem through tugging the thread into place by pulling the fabric around it. Alternately tug the fabric on the side, below, and above the thread.

10. Tarnished Jewellery. Prevent your jewellery from tarnishing by painting it with a clear nail polish. Apply a coat of nail polish to your new faux silver and gold accessories before wearing them to protect them from tarnishing, fading, and chipping.

Remembering these fashion hacks will not just save you from any fashion disaster, these fixes will also make staying fashionable a lot easier for you.
