HOW TO REMOVE STAINS AND DISCOLOURATION ON PATENT LEATHER SHOES AND BAGS

Hello

So you just learnt how to care for that precious patent leather bag from our post here. Unfortunately, your bag or shoe has already been discoloured. Good news is with these simple tips below, you can clean that bag with items in your cabinets back home. And voila............. the bag is as good as new

Tip one: Clean with a soft cloth to wipe out loose dust and dirt.

Tip two: Using water and mild soap with a soft rag, clean out any dulls or gloom, air dry and shine with a clean dry rag
Alternatively, wipe with baby wipes

Tip three: Using a clean soft rag, rub Vaseline on the dicoulored/ stained area and rub gently until the stains vanishes
Alternatively, use olive oil or hair spray

Tip four: Dip a soft clan rag in colourless vinegar and rub gently on the affected area until the stain vanishes

Tip five: As a last resort, dip a cotton ball in nail polish remover and gently rub on the affected area until the stain vanishes.

You have to be extremely patient when removing these stains. Avoid the temptation to scrub hard and NEVER use hard bristles to remove stains as this will cause more harm than good

HOW TO STRETCH/ EXPAND TIGHT SHOES

Hello Sweet Sweet!!

So you acquired this gorgeous pair of shoes and on reachimg home, magically the shoe is too tight. whew!!!!!!!! The truth is, when we go to buy shoes, we only test the shoes sitting at a spot or at most just walk round the small shop. The difference can be the case when worn out for an occassion especially if the show has a amll fit. Somrtimes, going a size up is not an option as a bigger size might tend to fall off your feet. In cases like this, youe best bet is to buy your regulaar size and do a bit of expansion if the shoe is really worth dying for. Here are a few tips to expand a tight shoe:


Wear your shoes daily round the house until you notice some expansion



Stuff old newspapers. thick socks or shoe horn overnight

Pour some water in a nylon bag, stuff into the shoes and put the shoes in your freezer overnight. remove the shoes from the freezer, allow the ice to de-freeze then take out the water (No try am if the shoe na expensive shoes ooo. No be me send you ooo)

Put on extra thick socks (as much as you can wear and still squeeze into the shoes), wear the shoes and blast away using your plugged hand dryer. Wiggle your toes, bend and stretch your feet and continue heating up for a while. Torn off the hand dryer and wear shoes till it cools before taking it off.

Any of the process used above can be repeated till you get your required fit

DANGER SIGN: SHE IS GOOD FOR GIRLFRIEND BUT NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR MARRIAGE.

Hello Sweet!!

So, I was watching this Uche Jumbo Rodriguez's film, Mrs Somebody with a friend of mine and her first boyfriend's character really struck me. We entered into serious discussion so I did some research and hence, this post. Why will a guy who has all it takes to maintain a wife and family, is under pressure from home to take a wife, is matured enough to do so or has even proposed (you don wear engagement ring for more than two years ooo) and yet, has no wedding date is in sight???? Sweetheart, it seems to me that you have been wasting time on Mr Left. Today, we will discuss some of the warning signs you need to know that Le boo is far from heading to the altar. You may just be one of those on the list "Good enough for GF but not Wifey"

  • He evades friends and family: You have been dating a guy for years and you do not know his close friends nor any member of your family and avoids knowing yours even when you have tried
  • Improper introduction: Everyone around knows you are his babe, fine. But what does he introduce you as? Friend, girlfriend or what??
  • Indecisive: He has no voice of his own, every idea you bring is OK. He relies on his mother for every single ting. Babe, except you are on mumsy's good books, your dream of walking down the altar is on a longggggggggggg thing
  • He has commitment issues: Its OK to change a job or business line if you feel the next one is more lucrative but a guy that hops from job to job every single year has commitment issues. Mind you, it may not be just job he has commitment issues with.
  • No value for your opinion: Does he even seek your opinion at all? If he has future plans with you, of course he should ask for your opinion especially on crucial matters. When asked and you offer constructive opinion, does he make use of them or does he ask just for the sake of asking.
  • Little or no interest in your affairs: A guy who cannot tell who you really are, what you like or dislike, how you really feel after a full year of dating obviously has no plans for you. 
  • Pure critic: Nothing you do is ever good enough. He knows everything while you don't. He overreacts at every single mistake. If you are not good enough in trivial matters, na for wife you wan dey good enough?
  • Thinks you nag a lot: No man wants a wife who will nag him to death. If he starts complaining often that you nag too much, sweetheart, he is seriously looking for an exit.
  • Sudden change in attitude: When you have dated a guy for too long and suddenly, his attitude changes negatively, he is giving you a serious clue which should not be ignored at all
  • Gets agitated by the M-word: Ok, am not saying you should do the proposal or start asking for wedding date like two weeks into a relationship but if you have been with a guy for a while, you should at least know where you are headed. If he gets constantly irritated of defensive over the M-word, you should seriously find the smelling rat.
  • Playboy: The guy flirts for Africa and you are giving excuses for him. I just don't get it when I hear girls say "A man can love you but still cheat on you" As in what naa? Oh girl, you may be the Mrs Right sha or just a pawn in the game of chess
  • Single but married: He asks you to move in with him because he really loves and misses you and all the rest of the jargon and you agreed. You guys have lived together for how long? 6 months, a year or more?? Why buy a cow when you can get free milk.
I will stop here for now. Sleep don de worry me. But babe seriously, except you equally want to string along for the ride, you should seriously do a check like right now. Shopping in the most expensive malls these days doesn't really mean anything especially those who can afford it. Baby mama has become the order of the day so you better watch it.
