The Secondhand Fashion Fix

Join style gurus Joanne Gambale and Ali Dibley as they help ABC’s Veronica Milsom solve her biggest fashion woes. From finding a style mojo with signature finds to removing pesky marks and stains from well-loved pieces, let’s get the down low from those in the know.

A perfect watch for the fashionably minded to the ensembly-challenged. Only good stuff ensues when these three get together and you’ll get a front-row seat on how to repair, re-love and reinvent a responsible wardrobe.
