A Fashion Emergency Kit

Written by The Strategy

No matter how careful a person you are, we guarantee that at some point in time, you’ve had a fashion emergency. Whether it be losing the back of your favourite Alexis Bittar earring, or spilling red wine on your new Current/Elliots, you’ve experienced an emergency at least once. We know that in our office, disasters occur on the daily, so we’ve managed to make ourselves emergency kits that fit neatly in a desk drawer, a glove compartment or suitcase.

A lint roller is a fashion kit must. Whether to sit beside a girl in a fuzzy sweater on the way to work, or have to squeeze one last cuddle with your cat before heading out the door, a travel sized lint roller will keep you looking fresh.
Never underestimate the power of Vaseline. We use the product to remove eye make-up, moisturize chapped lips, and most importantly, help unstick stuck zippers.
Binder clips! We have definitely had days when a button has popped off our jeans, or other similar wardrobe malfunction. We use the binder clips to hold together those loose ends.

Safety pins can be used to hold onto hold up that bra strap that insists on sliding off, replace a missing button, and anything else that may require a quick ‘sew’ job.

Top coat is an obvious one. We keep it stocked to stop runs in our stockings, which inevitably happen on the days of your most important meetings.

Double sided tape is necessary for when your blouse is a lit more billowy than you originally thought. In a pinch, we also use it to hem our pants.

A Tide to Go stick can be found in every stylists kit. You can’t plan for life’s little messes!

White erasers, we mainly keep on hand just in case we lose an earring back. Simply cut off a little cube, and you can stick your earring front right into it. Problem solved.
