Footloose – I recently scuffed another pair of shoes so instead of giving it away to Charity, I thought I’d do my research as to how to salvage these shoes. Now I could just easily patch it up with black nail varnish. Now that’s fine but I’m looking for a lickle more. Meet my new bff Google to remedy this challenge – watch this space I’m about to take it to the bridge!

Honestly the amount of germs one handbag must harbour it should be under quarantine. Word of caution do your research b4 starting this process! IF you get it wrong don’t call my name – nah for real.
Nail it – This is for those homies that do their own nails but useful to those nail salon connoisseurs out there too.
