Fashion Fixes as easy as 3 - 2 - 1




3 Ways to look sharp:
  • A little pinch at the hem of a pencil skirt or a dress that hits at the knee will make you look curvy no matter your body shape and your outfit more high end. 
  • Cheaper brands hardly make custom-size jackets. This is so that it can accommodate a large cross section of women. Getting rid of some fabric in the upper arm will help create a sharper cut.
  • Because many pieces are made to fit a wide range of shapes, people often complain about having a gap at the back of the waistband of their pants or skirts. A tailor can easily take that in and add flattering darts.  
2 Ways to make your shoes fit so much better:
  • Ever bought a shoe only to find out its snug-fitting? Not to worry, search for a good cobbler. He can lengthen or widen most snug-fitting shoes by as much as half size around N1000. If they are new, you can stretch them yourself. Just spray inside or outside with shoe stretch spray and wear them while they are still damp. The shape of your foot will automatically help soften the leather and break in your shoes. You can also stock a big ball of old newspapers inside the shoe overnight.
  • High heels don't have to hurt. You can shorten some styles by a quarter of an inch. That little bit can change the angle of your shoes and make a big difference.
1 Way to put it all together:
  • Get your clothes professionally pressed. A pro can roll out the lapels, steam the sleeves and remove creases much more thoroughly than you can at home, often for half the cost of standard dry cleaning.

With this few tips, you'll look better and probably snag up that deal you've been dying to get...

Venting Tuesday : Convo With A Scammer

When will these scammers learn? Yes, scammers!!! Ever got a text message from a weird number telling you you have just won a large sum of money courtesy a popular brand? Or, perhaps, a strange phone-call from 'a long lost relative, friend, old school mate' and everything in between telling you how much he/she has missed you and would love to see you again after so many years ...blah-blah-blah Apparently, those examples I gave fall under the electronic type of duping (scam), other types of the electronic duping include email advanced fees, plishing . The face to face duping is another type of scam. Here, the fraudsters come to their victim in person, inviting them to participate in a too good to be true deal. They tell the victim he need not worry about money anymore because the deal they are offering will save him from being financially handicap for life. They even engage their victim in a discussion depending on the type of deal involved. The term 'scammer' is a

‎Inspirational Bites with Seun Sanni: BLESSED IS THE HAND THAT GIVES

"Responsibility is the only solution to the war that is ongoing around the world. We all have to be responsible for one another most especially with our giving. When you give, you're automatically saying no to poverty and if poverty is eradicated from the land no one will think of going to blow him or herself up for a cup of rice. I plead with you leaders of churches, I want you to please teach the true doctrine of love not how to benefit church only, but also outer world. How will you preach Jesus Christ, the prince of peace when the environment of the church you reside is without peace?

Game or Simply Lame

I was having one of my chitchat moments with a close friend and the topic 'Standards' was raised. It was then I realized that many dating couples have too high standards they expect of each other thus many single people or broken marriages. Everyone has standards,they keeps us motivated to do our best, but often times these standards cause undue stress. Some often impose their standards on their loved ones; this is a new source of stress and frustration for partners who feel they cannot meet these expectations. I'm not saying standards are not good or unhealthy in relationship, I only think it shouldn't determine how much or how far the relationship should go. It also shouldn't be a criterium to determine if the relationship will lead to marriage but then again who is to blame? The partner with unattainable standards or the one who isn't truthful to him or herself and believes these standards can be reached.
