What do you think I would do?

Regarding the very rare pastime of ironing I have a fair bit only because my summer tops came out of storage and are washed. But if it’s sunny I can’t hide the creases with a cardigan.

Wear another top!

I would never iron something just before going out. I avoid ironing if I can but would certainly do it in advance if I needed something to wear for a special occasion. This would give me ample time to fix the button or change what I wore.

I am a planner.

Wear a jumper over it.
No ironing.
No button issues
?

Jumper? It’s summer doncha know. 😂

We nesh southerners know how to rock the riviera look even if we have to cover up our wrinkly cleavage. 🤣🤣

Yep! I did the winding thread round thingy. The only problem was when we went for lunch after our very pleasant walk I kept glancing down my front to make sure the dratted button was still there. 😂
As for ironing…I would like to stress it’s very rare occurrence and completely non existent in the winter when everything can be hidden under a woolly!

Another "not get past the ironing" bit.

Ok.... considering i can never be late for anything and anyone, i would choose a) wrap the loose thread around button and show up on time as arranged.... 😃

ironing? What is this ironing thing?

I'd do a) wrap the thread around

but maybe my un-ironed top would be as wrinkly as my skin so no one would notice anyway.

I'd sew it back on and be late

I would grab the loose thread wrapped it round hope for the best done it many times.

You're not allowed to think outside the box 😁

They're all in the wash!!

Put another top !

Put another top on ... 😃

This reminded me of another thread:

^*You’re never going out looking like that?^*

😁

Probably tie a really nice scarf doubled up down my front.

Trouble is those little gold safety pins are very very rare these days…..I know because I needed one to hold my glasses together!

Enidd

I’d definitely pick another top to wear.

(a) but take a safety pin

Ah! Thank you for reminding me I must buy another top to go with the trousers I wanted to wear because I only have two in the right colour and the other one was in the wash!

I should have thought of a brooch. Vintage is very ‘in’ even if the family heirloom looks like a squashed turtle!

Too hot for a camisole.☀️☀️

You lost me at ‘ironing’.

Me too, Siope...! I might put a brooch - (have double checked spelling and it seems the 'e ' at the end has been dropped since 1955) - over the offending aperture...but if it needs ironing, I wouldn't have it in the first place. Washing - mostly 100% cotton or wool goes out to breeze dry then carefully folded or put on hangers to air or till needed.....

Wear another top.

If those were the only choices then a.
