Clothing Tips Every Girl Needs

1. Tucking Jeans into Boots
No more fat ankles!! If you wear boot cut or straight leg jeans, here is a nice little trick to tucking those non-skinny jeans into your boots.

2. DIY Bra Strap Concealer
This clever clothing trick not only keeps your bra strap concealed, but also keeps your wide neck shirts from falling off of your shoulder. Smart! All it takes are a few thin strips of fabric and sew-on press studs.

3. Clever Zipper Solution
Here’s an easy trick to help keep that pesky zipper up! Slide a key chain ring onto the loop of your zipper, and then loop it around the button. The ring stays concealed under the denim and ensures that you don’t get caught with your fly down.

4. Double the Layers
A slimming trick! Just about every girl could use this. Wear a form fitting tank top between your sweater and button-up shirt to keep your mid section from looking frumpy.

5. Choosing Necklaces for Necklines
I’ve never really given this much thought, but pairing your jewelry with your neckline certainly makes a difference! Your necklace choice should compliment your outfit; the neckline of your shirt or dress being the most important thing to consider.

6. Removing Deodorant Stains
This happens ALL the time! Baby wipes are handy for so many things, which is why you should keep a pack near your closet to remove those evil white deodorant marks!

7. Folding T-Shirts in Horizontal Rows
Folding and organizing your shirts in rows makes it easy to see and easily find the t-shirt you want. It also takes up a lot less drawer space.

8. Stretching Shoes
Fill a couple of good quality zip lock baggies half full with water, seal them with most of the air out, and then place them in your shoes over night in the freezer. Repeat if needed.

9. Repurpose An Old Sweater
Sure, you can buy boot warmers. Or, you can get creative with an old sweater and make your own! It could be as simple as cutting off part of the sleeves. This way there’s no sewing required.

10. Eliminate Sweat Stains
Keep a water bottle handy in your laundry room full of lemon juice and spray any areas of your white clothes that are prone to sweat stains before you put them in the wash. This stuff works miracles.

11. Soften Your T-Shirts With Salt
No way! This technique takes a little bit of time and patience, but very little effort. Just submerge and soak a cotton t-shirt in a salt water solution for about 3 days, wash like normal, and then say goodbye to stiffness!

12. Make Cap Toe Shoes
The only thing I’d do different is use newspaper or something under the tape to cover up the rest of the shoe in case of over spray.

13. The Smart Way To Fold Lingerie
I’ve never even considered trying to fold one. Turns out there is a really clever way to fold them to fit in a drawer quite nicely.

14. Waterproof Your Shoes
Here is a simple trick using beeswax that will waterproof your shoes. Now you can wear them even on a rainy day!

15. Double Hangers
You can use them to create double clothes hangers. I like this idea for my daughters clothes so I can pair outfits together for the week. This way she already has them planned out. It also saves on closet space.

16. Hosiery & Hairspray
You probably already know that you can stop a run in a pair of pantyhose with clear nail polish, but why not just prevent the runs in the first place with hairspray? Give them a quick spray with an aerosol can, paying special attention to the areas that are prone to runs

17. Chewing Gum Catastrophe
How to easily remove it from clothes and other fabric — ICE! The idea is to get the gum as cold as possible. This hardens it and makes it easier to just scrape off. This trick also works for furniture and hair.

18. Moleskin To The Rescue
It’s basically like a soft fabric with one sticky side; what a great temporary fix for a protruding underwire!

19. Tights Under Ripped Jeans
How pretty! Not to mention a great way to stay warm in the winter. You could do this with any pair of tights depending on your style, but I do love the lace. For a more casual look, perhaps just a pair of plain tights would do.

20. Lint Ball Take Down
Just rub your pill infested sweater with a pumice stone, and then use a lint roller to pick them up. A disposable razor also works well on tighter knit fabrics.

21. Revamping Your Leather Boots
Those white marks on your boots, turns out those are salt stains! This is a problem if you live in the north where the roads and walkways are covered in salt. With just a couple of ingredients you probably already have at home, you can make them look as good as new!

22. Scarf Tying Tip
I love this one because it’s easy but looks like you actually have a sense of style, AND it stays put! Just try it once and you will always tie your scarves like this.

23. Removing a Red Wine Stain
Just pour a little bit of white wine on there so the red wine doesn’t set in.

24. Secret Trick For Cuffed Sleeves
Fold, roll, tug and scrunch. That’s if you want the J. Crew look — you know, effortless looking but awesome.

25. Hang Pants Like a Pro
This is a smart way to hang your pants if you have a problem with them slipping off of the hanger. Just straddle the hanger with your pants upside-down, and fold one leg at a time through the hanger so that the second leg is resting on top of the first.
