Save those clothes!

Runs in Hose
When you buy your hose make sure it is the correct size. Hose that is too small is more easily ruined.
Before you wear your hose hand wash them and allow to drip dry. Then mix 2 1/2 cups of salt and one gallon of water and soak your hose for 4 hours. Rinse thoroughly and drip dry.
Carry clear polish to stop any runs immediately. It is possible the run is in a place that does not show and you may still be able to wear this pair, at least with slacks. Where your less that perfect hose with slacks, and save new and unblemished hose for skirts and dresses.
Ink Stains
Ink on your favorite shirt? Here is the solution.
An ink pen just leaked all over your favorite shirt, or worse, your husband left one in his pocket and it exploded in the dryer all over the whole load.
What do you do? Is there any way to get out the ink?
Pick up some inexpensive aerosol hair spray and use it liberally all over the stain to break up the ink. The sooner you catch the stain the easier it is to get it out. So try to keep some on hand for future accidents.
Chewing gum, a sticky situation!
Some people qualify gum chewing as a bad habit, I don't know if I would go that far. But I do know that leaving your already chewed gum in places others inadvertantly come into contact with is thoughtless and inconsiderate.
Since I doubt we will rehabilitate the world on their gum disposal at anytime soon, or if ever, we will still from time to time get caught in other people's sticky situations.
If it happens to be your clothes that get caught, and it doesn't easily come off, try putting the item in the freezer and chipping off the gum when it is frozen.

When choosing pearls there are a number of things to consider besides just the quality of the pearls. While there is no right or wrong way to chose pearls, here are a few tips you should consider.
There are three stages in leather care that include cleaning, conditioning, and protection. It is important to remember to work on your leather in a well-ventilated area. Some leather care products are very strong and can cause irritations. DO NOT use leather cleaner on Nubuck or Suede, simply clean with a damp sponge.
Mixing and matching is a personal choice, you create your very own style!
Well, let's get to understand and have fun with colors
White
A popular color in Fashion. Light and neutral, it goes well with any color.
Considered a summer color, a good choice for tops. Always have some in your wardrobe. It readily matches bottoms of any color; a pair of blue denim jeans, Khakis pants, a gray skirt, a bright colorful beach bermudas? You name it!
Associated with cleanliness and purity, innocence and gentleness., it gives you a feeling of freedom and uncluttered openness. Women just always look that lovely in their snowy white wedding gown, don't they?
Doesn't it seem like we were just hauling summer clothes out of storage and burrowing for our bathing suits? What happened? Summer faded faster than a fashion fad. Now with winter setting in, it's time to switch Capri's for cardigans and prepare our wardrobes for winter. But before you simply dump your best summer clothes in storage boxes and break out your winter wardrobe, plan ahead. An extra 30 minutes now could protect your clothes year round.
