Fashion Emergency Fix-Its

Ever go to a party and realize that you have a stain on your shirt? Or better yet, your strap breaks! Well ladies, have no fear! With only a few essential items stashed away in your adorable 'going out' purse, you will be ready for any crisis that comes your way.

From a broken heal to a broken nail, crazy glue does the trick. Just a little dab and you can practically fix anything. Just make sure to be careful so your shoe doesn't get stuck to your hand! It is small and compact for something that is so heavy duty.

Dinner before partying can almost guarantee a stain - especially if you are wearing white! Tide To Go is the most amazing thing to happen to clothes since the BeDazzler. It gets out almost anything from red wine to pizza sauce so your shirt looks 'so fresh and so clean' the whole night!

Broken straps are the worst! To be prepared, make sure to have a sewing kit sta
shed away in your purse. Inside is everything you need from the needle to the thread. Keep your eyes peeled from the ones that have safety pins with them as well. Those come in handy when you need an even quicker fix to your strap emergencies.

This is a hidden secret of mine - always carry around flossers! Anything can end up in your teeth, and when you shine your pearly whites to the cute guy in the club, green spinach lodged between your canines isn't such a turn on. They come in disposable single-use packs of 15 that will keep your smile looking great all night long (not to mention, your dentist will be proud!).

While on the topic of teeth, gum and/or mints are a must for any emergency bag. Bad breath = bad! It is one of the worst things to ever happen to a person's mouth. And always make sure you have enough to share. You can offer a special someone a piece without embarrassing them in regards to their stinky breath!

We have all been there at a bathroom in a public place or house party. The long lines and the mirror hogs are the worst! Be prepared to check yourself out whenever you need to by bringing along a compact mirror. It can be helpful for touching up your makeup or as reassurance that you are the hottest girl at the party!

My final emergency item, and the one that is very important because I know that at one time or another every female has wished they had one - Hair Ties! It is the easiest thing to carry around with you but the easiest to forget. Make sure you always have a few stashed away in your purse, and for those of you with short hair, some clips or bobby pins would be beneficial as well.

Hopefully the next time you are out at a party or a club and something takes a turn for the worse, this emergency kit will keep you looking and feeling beautiful all night long!
