Know your body know the right bag

My ladies, trust y'all are doing great this morning... 
As a fashion and style freak, I've often had some resentments when I see some of you carry some kind of handbags that doesn't match your personality even when you're trying to be stylish. So I thought of how to help you know the kind of bag that suits your body type and in my research I found this article and thought to share with y'all.... 


When shopping for a new handbag anytime, consider your body type. Not every handbag is ideal for every woman. Follow these tips to find the perfect handbag for you.

Generally speaking when it comes to handbags, the opposite shape of your body type is the most flattering. When shopping, it's advisable you head to the dressing room, carry the bag as you normally would and check it out from all angles in the mirror.

Tall and thin
Choose handbags with a short, slouchy shape like the hobo. Avoid shoulder bags with a short strap as they will make you look even taller. Select handbags that are wider than they are tall. A clutch is a good choice.

Petite
Despite what you see in Hollywood and Nollywood, oversized bags aren't for small women. Large bags tend to overwhelm your frame. Avoid shoulder bags with a long strap as they will weigh you down, making you look even shorter.

Plus-size
Pick a large structured or boxy bag to balance out your curves. Don't carry a bag that is too small as it will make you look larger. If you love prints, steer clear of tiny patterns.

Everyone
If you are splurging on an expensive bag, choose one that you will be able to wear often. There's no need to spend #50,000 or more on a bag that will rarely make it out of your closet. If you are buying several inexpensive bags instead, pick one classic everyday bag in black or brown. Then, experiment with fun, funky styles and metallics for your other bags.

If you aren't sure about the different types of purses and bags, check this space next time for some general guidelines to help you along the way. 

Meanwhile, consider these tips and you'll be sure to appear more elegant next time!

Shoe Care Tips


All shoe types needs care and maintenance, whether it is a leather brogue, canvas or suede loafer, they all deserve proper care to last and serve their respective purposes. So buying a nice pair is only the beginning, there's so much more...

Our shoes go through several untold punishments from our feet... You'd agree... Lol.  The biggest mistake we make most times is neglecting the care for our shoes after they are brought home. After each use, you need to put some time and effort into the fabric and the sole - this prepares them for even better performance next time.

Here are some tips to keeping your shoes longer:

1. Care for suede shoes
If you have a suede shoe, you need to protect and brush them. Use protective suede pray and brush to resist water, salt and mud because these elements are capable of defacing your fine suede kicks. Also when buying a suede spray, be sure it is the colour that matches your suede shoe, unless you're ready to have the colour of your shoe changed.

2. For leather shoes
Trust me, when I say that, acquiring a quality leather shoes is an investment, hence the need to take proper care of them. Whether you have spent a fortune or not in acquiring those leather shoes, in order to wear them and enjoy your money, polish them! Polishing your leather shoe each time you want to put them on makes them look their best. But incase you don't always have the time to polish, remember to give them a good rub down before going out.

3. Patent leather
To prepare the patent leather shoes to be cleaned with the Saphir Vernis Rife Patent Leather Cleaner, first take a damp (not wet) chamois and wipe away any dust or debris that has accumulated on the shoe.

4. Is your shoe wet? 
Peradventure you find yourself caught up in a sudden downpour and your shoe becomes a victim, save it from further or permanent damage by drying it once you're home. Stuff some newspaper into your shoe to soak up the moisture and place them in a well ventilated area as you wait for them to dry. Or dry in the sun but do not place them  near a heater or anything related to avoid damage and leather becoming cracked and brittle.


5. Add a rubber sole
Before you wear your newly acquired corporate or dress shoes, it is important that you ask a cobbler (shoe maker) to place a rubber sole on it. The rubber will not only protect the leather sole from damage, but they'll also give you extra traction. Worn rubber sole are easily and more affordably replaced.

6. Hand wash your canvas/sneakers
The best way to clean your canvas sneakers is by hand wash with fabric detergent/shampoo  and water -  not washing machine... Lol

7. Clean the inside
This is especially important if odour is a problem. Swab them with alcohol or any antifungal agent. Be careful not to splash to avoid staining the leather.

8. Wear hose or socks
This will protect against perspiration which erodes insoles.


9. Get shoe racks
Keep your shoes in good shape after using them. It is better to have a shoe rack where you can arrange them properly, because heaping them all  up at a corner in the room or stuffing them into  a carton can cause lots of disfiguring and damages to them.


I hope this helps someone....

Red carpet shots from BBMA 2016



The Billboard Music Awards 2016 held yesterday, Sunday 22 May at the T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. 
Some celebrities were captured on the red carpet looking elegant in their different style choices.

Ludacris and wife, Eudoxie
                                               



























                                                   
I don't know who your best dressed was but for me, I'd say for the ladies,  Rihanna looked simple and classy in her 80s dress while Seal stole it for the guys... 

And for couples, I think Ludacris and his wife, Eudoxie were super cool.
