Wear to Where: Gal Pal
06.29.11
Say goodbye to fashion emergencies with the help of Gal Pal, the creators of the original Garment Deodorant Remover that’s in the kit of every stylist I know.
How many times have you thrown on a dark dress only to discover deodorant marks? Got a fallen hem and you’re about to run into a meeting or maybe you just realized your jacket is covered in lint? Fret no more because I’m about to let you in on three amazing products that will give your fashion foibles the permanent fix.
Let’s start with the originator; say goodbye to pesky white deodorant streaks on your favorite black pieces thanks to Gal Pal Garment Deodorant Remover. This ingenious sponge is specially designed to instantly remove deodorant residue, without the use of cleaners or chemicals. Simply wipe with the grain or texture of the garment and presto the stain is removed.
We’ve all heard of double stick tape right? Think of Jennifer Lopez in that plunging green Versace number. Luckily you don’t need to be walking the red carpet to justify products that help keep clothing in place. Gal Pal Everything Tape fixes and secures “everything” from wigs to scarves, apparel to lingerie, pant hems to shoe straps and everything in between. I call it my miracle tape!
Forget the lint sheets and rollers; instead try Gal Pal Original Lint Remover Mitts. Use these gems on: clothes, furniture, shoes, upholstery and anything else you can think of. Pre-cut to comfortably fit almost any hand size, these magic gloves remove the most troublesome lint. Genius by any standard, they don’t stick to themselves like a lot of products and their small size makes it extremely convenient to have them in your handbag at all times.
Now that you’re armed with the knowledge of how to combat fashion fiascos you should now feel confident to strut your stuff in a low cut black dress under a black light.
