Over time, your jeans will lose its elasticity and stretch out. But before you throw them out, try saving them by washing them at a slightly higher temperature. The fabric will shrink slightly, giving you a better fit again.

While washing at a higher temperature helps shrink pants legs, a baggy waistband is trickier. In this case, grab a belt and strap it around your waist to create a paperbag effect. It’s super chic, and you don’t have to waste time getting them to the tailor’s.

We love the feeling of buying new shoes, but the thought of having to deal with painful blisters is enough to put anyone off shoe-shopping for a bit.

Rather than having to bear the pain of blisters, give your shoes sometime to get used to your feet shape. One easy way is to wear a thick pair of socks and walk around your house in your new shoes.

This allows the leather to stretch out a bit to fit your feet better, and to mould to your foot shape.

It would be heartbreaking to throw away your fave pair of jeans just because the zip has worn out and constantly runs down the zipper track.

In those moments, a keyring is your best bet. Simply get a keyring that you don’t need, and hook it onto your zip. Then, zip it up, and “hang” the keyring on your jeans’ button, then button up your jeans.

Voila! No more problematic zips!

Every working woman who wears shirts to work will know the pain of having to deal with shirt gaps.

To avoid flashing your co-workers, get some fashion tape and place them in between the front and back button plackets. Concentrate on the gaps around the bust for a more polished looking front.

Pushed up sleeves are super chic, but we know that they can be quite troublesome to maintain throughout the day, especially when the fabric has lost its elasticity and slides down your arm every 10 minutes.

To combat this nuisance, use rubber bands to hold your sleeves up. Wear a band about 2cm above your sleeve cuff, and then push it all up to your desired height. Then, use the fabric’s folds to mask the rubber band.
