Fashion Tips

when it comes to fashion every one and seems to know it all their mother or maybe bestfriend's help. well everyone has their own tips and tricks but not all of them are useful, here are some useful and helpful tricks gathered from the best: designers, lifestyle experts and, of course, our staff. Trust us: With these gems, you’ll be well on your way to living your most stylish life.

1.Despite what it says on the tag, cashmere is best washed by hand. To dry it, use a salad spinner, which releases excess water in seconds.

2. Use white wine to remove red wine stains.

3.Wash new jeans twice before taking them to the tailor. Why? Because jeans will always shrink in length when washed.

4.To stop angora or mohair from shedding, fold the garment and place it into a zip-top bag and freeze it for at least three hours.

5. Remove odors from vintage or thrift clothing by spritzing them with a mixture of one part vodka, two parts water.

6. “Remove white deodorant marks from a garment by gently rubbing the protective foam used on hangers against the fabric.” — Jonathan Simkhai, designer

7. If you get an oil stain on your favorite handbag, coat the mark with baby powder and let it stand overnight. By morning, the stain should be gone. If a bit still remains, repeat the process until the stain is completely gone.

8. The best at-home method to keep diamonds sparkling: liquid dishwasher detergent and an old toothbrush.

9.The secret to well-fitting everyday clothes is Lycra. The formulas to look for: 95% cotton/5% Lycra spandex for T-shirts, and at least 2% Lycra for jeans to hold their shape.

10.“Always organize your clothes going light to dark from left to right in your closet. Your eye will follow the color and thus help you stay organized.” — Melanie Charlton Fascitelli, Founder, Clos-ette and Clos-ette Too.
