One of the downsides of being a fashionista: your clothes are bigger divas than you are. Take suede, for instance. The high-maintenance fabric looks chic, and definitely looks expensive… until they get dirty.
But take comfort, dirty does not mean ruined. You can make that suede jacket look practically like new as long as you know what do to, which we’re here to help you out with.
1. Read the Directions
Not all suedes are created equal. Some versions of the fabric are easier to clean than others, so check the label to see what you’re working with.

For most women buying a swimsuit is right up there with going to the dentist- something you have to do, but not necessarily something you WANT to do. So I put together some tips to take the pain out of buying swimsuits.
How to Buy a Swimsuit
The Rules
You’ll have no reason not to look your beach best if you carefully adhere to the following tips.
The Dos
1. When shopping for a suit, think about what first catches your eye. For example, do you notice the bottoms or the top? Now, think of how you’d feel if someone looked first at that part of your body.
2. Check the tag. The higher the spandex content, the better. The suit will hold its shape and flatter yours.
3. Sunscreen—the most important swimsuit accessory!
