Have you ever wondered how celebrities clothing seems to never gap or move even when their neck lines are plunging or hem lines rising? Well, I have unearthed some great fashion secrets used by red carpet walking stars, and I am happy to share them with you.
First,
Hollywood Fashion Tape is a must have ($6.95)! It's the original, double- stick tape stars use to keep clothing in place.
It keeps bra straps from slipping, secures plunging neck lines, closes blouse gaps and fixes fallen hems.
Next on your list should be the
Hollywood Hook Up ($9.95). This nifty invention is long over do. The small plastic clip converts any average bra into a racer back bra. I have been doing this conversion for years with an over sized safety pin, which is much cheaper but really hard on your bra straps.
Now this next item I found in the hair accessory isle in Target. It is called A Girls Secret ($7.95). It is a sporty foam wrap that claims it has one hundred uses. The one really good use I found for it is inside your boots. It never fails that when boot season comes around I put on my favorite boots and remember that somewhere on my calf they will inevitably rub. This foam is great to wrap around that spot and tame the discomfort.
While on the red carpet stars do shine, but not because their skin looks oily. Celebrities have been using oil blotting sheets for years to keep the shine down without disturbing there make- up. Now you can too.
Hollywood Oil Blotting Sheets ($9.95) come in a pack of 30 and are disposable. I recommend you keep them in you purse instead of pressed powder that tends to break.
Last but not least are
Hollywood Behind the Seams ($9.95).
Have you ever had a day or what seems like weeks when your antiperspirant is just not working? Now you do not have to worry about unsightly perspiration stains under your arms because Hollywood Behind the Seams are thin, comfortable, disposable underarm garment shields. They save you embarrassment and dry cleaning bills. I even recommend them to the men in your life who have the same challenge.
Look for all these affordable fashion secrets at local boutiques or online. Remember fashion is fun and it's really fun when you are confident and these little secrets can help you be confident.
