Caring for your bags

Style is an option clean is not.
-Autum Worcester

You bought it in a flea market?
It’s a Louis Vuitton bag?
Doesn’t matter…….
Lack of love for your handbags and purses would render them unusable in no time.
No matter what they cost, they should be priceless to you.


Like caring for anything, it doesn't cost much money , just a little time.
  1. Store them properly.
  2. Invest in a bag rack.
  3. Store them in dust bags.
  4. Clean them with the right cloths and cleaning agents, even when they are not being used.
  5. Invest in at least 10 good pieces and use alternatively for long lasting use.
  6. Is it out of fashion? But still in good condition? Take it off your bag rack, store in a dust bag and put it preferably in a plastic storage bin, where it would be protected form dust. It would definitely come back into fashion and by then its vintage!

Caring for you shoes


Give a woman the right pair of shoes and she can conquer the world!
-Marilyn Monroe



Do your shoes seem to have an unusually short life span?



Are they in a pile in a carton somewhere?
You have invested so much money in footwear, spend little or no money to care for them properly.
The secret to long lasting footwear is proper care.
It doesn’t matter if they cost $1000 or $10 shoes.
To enjoy your shoes for a while;

1.            Get a shoe rack or shoe tree! Use it!


2.            Clean your shoes regularly.
3.            Fix minor problems as soon as you discover them.
4.            Use the right polish or cleaning cloths.
5.            For those expensive shoes, put them in shoe pouches before putting them away.
6.            If they are peeling, or the sole is off or the heels are bent, THROW IT AWAY!
7.            Do NOT expose your shoes to water or excessive heat (sun).
8.            Invest in shoe brushes, polishes, shoe horns and shoe stretchers.

Over the years you have spent so much money acquiring clothing and accessories.
Dont forget that the clothes make you beautiful.
Its therefore very important to care for them properly.


For your clothes to serve you excellently and for an extended period , its important to properly store them.


  1. Hang them! People tend to leave their clothes on piles all around their room! Invest in a good, big, multifunctional wardrobe.
  2. Fold your jeans and tshirts.
  3. Wash your clothes regularly, dirt actually ruins them.
  4. Fix  the little problems; a missing button, a tear etc.
  5. Check for washing instructions on all your clothes.
  6. Dry clean, DON'T wash your suits.
  7. Remove stains with the right detergents, the wrong bleaches or detergents could further damage the outfit.
  8. When using a washing machine use fabric softener.
  9. Have a designated laundry basket or bag to prevent dirty clothes from getting mixed up with the clean ones.
  10. If you havent worn a piece of clothing for 2 years, give it out. Create room for the new ones.
