Alpha Appeal vests

I am what I wear



man muscle in different forms



 Many say that you should not judge a book by its cover but I must admit that the clothing you through onto your back say a lot about a person and their characters. How may times have you seen a thick women on and advertisements? Advertising and marketing talk of how women sell . I strongly disagree with disagree with that statement, the clothing and the photo shop techniques used are what sell. the reason why so many females in our the world have insecurities is because the media is never happy with the way a person looks. They take a size zero model and still photo edit their pictures, this tells us the you can never be skinny enough, fair enough, tall enough or pretty enough to fit the standards that the media has placed for the females in the society. This does not only go for females but males as well. Does being a short man make you any less of a man? Does being skinny make u less of a man? Does not being well build make you less of a man? Definitely not! 



Women of different shapes



Look at it this way, imagine how life would be

if all man were tall dark and handsome with brown

eyes and all females where tall slim and fair skin.

 Clearly life would be boring. So we should stop

 allowing the media to exploit our minds and tell

 us what is the right way to walk or stand.

We are all beautiful because we are different.

The key to an awesome body is keeping healthy:

First impressions, make a statement

By now it is known that when one goes for an interview or presentation they should dress appropriate and look professional. When  dressing up for a business related meeting or it is important to pay attention to detail and the use of colour. However this does not mean that you need to wear the most expensive garments or be labelled from head toe. And this is where I lay a helping hand for my fashion freaks.

In this particular blog I will strongly recommend Mr. Price and exact, a famous affordable retail store in South Africa. Mr. Price and exact have made it almost impossible for anyone not to step into their store by using numerous collections to fit different people and gender, shapes and fashion styles. from vintage, hippie, colour blocking, sport and most important corporate garments Mr. Price and exact are truly fashion for all for less.

Unshrink your woolen items this winter

Winter is clearly creeping in and as we say brrrr we tend to panic as every season is costly. Worry no further because I have tips on how you remain stylish and brand new at almost no cost.

Most of us have had the expireince of accidentally washing wool jerseys in a way that they end up getting damaged. When wool gets wet and warm, the fibers lock together resulting in shrinkage. Meaning you have one less jersey in your carboard. This is soon to change as i have found a solution to getting your jersey back to its original size. Sounds impossible?  Read on...

You will need:
Tubs
Hair conditioner
Sodium borate
Viniger
Towel   

Step 1

Soak your jersey in conditioner and gently pull the sweater to reshape it.

Step 2

Soak the jersey in warm water with a mild soap for about 10 minutes to unlock the fibers in the wool. Lay the jersey out on a towel in a cool place but don't rinse it. You can roll it up in the towel to absorb the excess water.

Step 3

Leave your jersy to dry. Once dry it it ready to be warn.

My personal advice to you is not to tumble dry your wooolie items or use excessive heat.

Thats your style for less.
