Best Ways To Solve Office Wardrobe Malfunctions Posted on June 15, 2021July 20, 2021 By Leigh Langston We’ve all been there—you walk into the office and notice your blouse is missing a button. Or you pass too close to a door frame, and it tears the hem of your skirt. And it always seems to happen right before a meeting with your biggest client! The best ways to solve office wardrobe malfunctions is to know the right tricks ahead of time. Read on to uncover office hacks that will keep you looking your best all day long. Button Pops Off Pexels.com It can be difficult to notice that you have a loose button until it is gone completely. While you can get away with missing some buttons, others are necessary to the function of your clothing. If you are at the office and lose a button that takes your look from office casual to revealing or frumpy, try a simple trick. Hook a paper clip through any threads left by your button, then pull it through the buttonhole. Zipper Gets Stuck Photo by Margaret Neuhaus on Pexels.com Cheap zippers can get dirty or clogged with threads easily. If you get to work and can no longer use a zipper on your pants or top, inspect the slider and the teeth to make sure nothing is caught in them. Knowing how to clean and maintain a zipper will help it work better and last longer. You can use a granite pencil to lubricate the teeth and improve the movement of the slider on metal zippers. Hem Rips Pexels.com Whether you forgot to have something tailored or the hem simply fell out of its stitching, you can make easy repairs in the office. While a needle and thread are preferred, you can use tape to last the day. Roll the tape so the sticky side is facing out, then place it between the pieces of fabric, being mindful of the crease on the hem. Coffee Stains Photo by Daria Shevtsova on Pexels.com No one wants to suffer the worst wardrobe malfunction of all. A dreaded coffee stain can come with pain and an unsightly brown splotch, typically right on the front of your shirt. The best solution is to go straight to a vending machine and get a seltzer or club soda. Place a paper towel behind the stain while you pour the liquid on it to soak up any excess liquids. Then, use another paper towel to dab the stain. The spot will look faded and may still look like a coffee stain, but it will be easier to clean when you get home. Share the best ways to solve office wardrobe malfunctions with your coworkers and friends. If you keep an extra set of clothes or a sewing kit at work, you can rest easy knowing that you have even more hacks to get you through the day. Don’t let a wardrobe malfunction stop you from taking on the world.
