Wardrobe malfunction? This magnetic button will help you keep your clothes closed

That scarf that won’t stay put, the cardigan that keeps opening up, the button-up shirt that’s just a tad too low-cut? Forget about the old stand-by safety pin.

MagneButtons — twin, round, heavy-duty magnets embossed with simple to fantastical designs — fasten together by mutual attraction to whatever layers need to be joined.

Once in place, the fasteners look like classy buttons — without the hole. Design choices are as varied as classic antique-looking metal or pearl-like domes to bold and whimsical patterns.

Among our favorites: multicolored paw prints, 3-D resin rose blossoms, kaleidoscope-like mandalas, and even the Keep Calm and Carry On message.

Most MagneButtons are a diminutive 24 millimeters (about 9/10 of an inch) in diameter, but a few styles are available in a 32mm ( 1 1/4 inch) size. You can make MagneButtons part of your look or keep them out of sight.

Info: MagneButtons cost $18 per pair in 24mm size; $24 in 32mm size.
