These prevent your shoes from sinking into the grass or getting caught in grates, decks, and cobblestones. You can choose between the classic size or options for wide or narrow heels. Pro tip: brides, these are great to have on hand for an outdoor wedding. Your guests will thank you!

Optix 55 New Anti Fog Spray for Glasses

Sunglasses are essential on hot, sunny days, but humidity can make your lenses get foggy. Even if it's not hot out, wearing glasses with a face mask means instantly foggy lenses. Prevent that from happening with this spray. Just spray it on, rub it in, let it dry for 1 minute, and you're ready for a fog-free day.

Adjustable Elastic Boot Strap- 4 Pieces

It's so frustrating when you tuck your pant legs into your pants and they don't stay put. Prevent your pants from bunching up by using these adjustable boot straps.

Perfect Fit Instant Button- 8 Sets

If your button breaks or if you just need to reduce the waist of your jeans, you can instantly add a button with one of these pins. They're adjustable, they stay in place, and they're easy to remove if you want to use the button on another item of clothing.

Women's Foldable Portable Travel Ballet Flat Roll Up Slipper Shoes

Sometimes it can just be too much to spend the whole night in heels. Stash these roll-up flats in your purse just in case you need to make a last-minute shoe change. There are lots of colors to choose from, but you can never go wrong with black flats.

Keep one of these individually-wrapped wipes in your bag so you can remove stains wherever you are. They're also helpful if you spill on the carpet or the interior of a car.

BEAUTURAL Fabric Shaver and Lint Remover

A fabric shaver is so clutch to remove pilled fabric and fuzz without damaging your clothes. This is especially essential for sweaters, hoodies, and sweatpants that pill easily, but you can also use the fabric shaver on bedding, furniture, and carpets. It's oddly satisfying to see all the pilled fabric that comes off of your garments. It's basically the laundry equivalent of pulling off a pore strip. If you don't have a fabric shaver, click "add to cart" now. This one has 36,500+ 5-star reviews on Amazon.

Fearless Tape - Womens Double Sided Tape for Clothing and Body- 50 Count

Telling you to get fashion tape is not exactly innovative, but did you realize that you can use it for so many different fixes? You can use fashion tape to hold an off-the-shoulder top in place, keep a strapless top still, change the neckline of a v-neck top and prevent a wrap dress from coming undone, hide your bra from peaking out of your top, prevent low-cut socks from slipping off your feet, and so much more.

Feel Fresh Bamboo & Cotton Bra Liners

It's not the most pleasant summer-fashion topic, but under-boob bra rash and chafing are no joke. These cotton and bamboo bra liners are soft and silky to the touch while being tough on sweat and wicking moisture away from the skin to prevent discomfort.

The Ultimate Nipple Covers

On the flip side, who wants to go out in a bra if you don't have to? These reusable adhesive nipple covers are a must-have. Yes, there are many nipple covers out there, but you can't see these through your shirt. You could wear them under a thin white tank top and no one would see them. And, they're actually easy to remove. Just check out the 7,300+ 5-star reviews to find out why so many Amazon shoppers love these.
