Saving on Clothing for Adults and ChildrenI wanted to share some things I have done in the past and still do today for saving money on clothing for both children and adults. Clothing, along with everything else, is so expensive.

Splurge and Save on ShoesWant a great way to save money while shopping? Buy expensive shoes. Sound crazy? It makes more sense than you think.

Ball Chain Keychain to Keep Zipper UpDo you have a pair of pants where the zipper seems to always fall down? Here is a quick solution that works really well. Use one of those small ball chain keychains to tether the zipper to your pants button. Simply string the chain through the hole in the zipper tab and attach the ends.

Saving Money on Shoes

Frugal FeetShoes are a weakness for many women. It's easy to spend a fortune on a closet full of shoes, but it's very impractical. Instead, try to make wise decisions when purchasing shoes and avoid buying "cute" shoes for that reason only.

Save on SuitsWhether it's for an upcoming wedding, a job interview, or a fine dinner, everyone needs to have one good suit in the closet. While women can get away without the business style suit until it's time for a job interview, for men it carries more importance.

Questions

Bleaching a Polyester Vest Before Dyeing - vest

Bleaching a Polyester Vest Before DyeingI have a dark blue/black vest that I want to bleach so I can turn it brown. It is 78% polyester, 19% rayon, and 3% spandex. Any opinions out there if this would work at all or just ruin the vest?

Fabric Dye on Nightgown Keeps BleedingI have a new nightgown that will not stop bleeding the dye. I have washed it 4 times with salt and still it doesn't. I am not sure how to get rid of this problem. When I wake up in the morning my fingers are blue. Can someone give me a solution?

Removing Dye from a White Dress with a Pattern

Removing Dye from a White Dress with a PatternI have a toddler dress that is white and has colored hearts on it. It is cotton and polyester. I want to know how to remove the color and just make it all white. I'm hoping to be able to use it for my daughter's Halloween costume.

Solution for a Discoloration on Vintage Velvet Dress

Solution for a Discoloration on Vintage Velvet DressMy late mother-in-law made beautiful velvet Christmas dresses for my girls 30 years ago. I would like my granddaughter to wear one, but they are discolored. Can't tell if it's dirt from hanging in the closet or an actual permanent color change.

Repairiing Nail Polish Marks on Ugg Boots

Repairiing Nail Polish Marks on Ugg BootsMy daughter has managed to spill nail polish remover on one of her brand new Ugg boots. Any suggestions for removing this or improving the look of the boot? The colour is now faded. Would hand washing do anything to improve this?

Removing the Color from Satin MaterialMy mother's 60 year old wedding gown, that I also wore 25 years later is made of peach satin covered with Nottingham lace. Can I safely get the colour out of the satin? My own daughter wants to use it for her wedding next year, but wants just white.
