My Westminster Emergency Fix Kit

After all of the searching high and low in store after store and scrolling on countless websites you have found the perfect Westminster ensemble. Congrats!  This is an exciting event and we want our dogs and ourselves to look fantastic. But what do you if an accident happens to your clothes? Here are some of my go to "fix it" items. Please share pearls of what you cannot leave without when preparing for big events


  • Hairspray -  for the obvious hair fixes but also can be used to reduce static on skirts or dresses. Also, a quick temporary fix for nylon runs
  • Bobby Pins & Extra Hair Ties - I believe in having bobby pins everywhere! They can fix hair styles and they provide quick fixes on attire in a pinch like a busted button
  • Safety Pins - lets face it these are some the best fix it items. They can fix hems, broken zipper pulls, visible bra straps, busted buttons, seam splits, the ideas are endless!
  • Clear Nail Polish - will fix snags on nails when a file won't do. It also can fix runs on nylons or if very carefully applied can fix knit runs - but only try this on the inside of the garment 
  • Baby Wipes - for those oppsie spills. Dab. I mean dab don't rub to help lift spills
  • Extra Nylons - nylons can remove deorderant residue
  • Double-Sided Tape - can fix hems and too low of tops on the fly
  • Wrinkle Releaser - if you don't have this little amazing product go buy it!!! It's perfect for getting those last wrinkles out without ironing. I use it on everything I hang when I get to the hotel room
  • Blister Healers - these are my favorite for blisters or even preventing them! Make sure you apply when skin is clean and dry and they will stay on for days!

There are countless of other fit it items, these are my go-tos. Please share your own and good luck to everyone who is going to Westminster!
