Footwear is an important component of our wardrobe. Just like any piece of clothing in an outfit, a pair can get you walking like an A-list celebrity or a pauper in the street. Remember that it’s not only the style clean and well maintained bamboo shoes are really comfortable. They can surely take you the extra mile.

Here are 2 extremely important reminders that will keep you dancing confidently in your blue suede shoes like Elvis:

The suede brush is your shoes’ best friend

If you’re reading this part, I’m pretty sure you know by now that suede is a delicate material. It is not as cleaning friendly as leather, but the suede material has its own distinct appeal. Just think of the texture it adds to your outfit, right?

Brushing your suede shoes before and especially after use can greatly prolong its life. Make it a habit to remove dirt from your shoes before they could turn into stains or invite molds to live on your precious pair. I’m really inclined to believe that this is the secret of Elvis Presley’s blue suede shoes.

Pre-treatments can save you a great deal

It may not seem practical to fix anything before it’s broken – but it does. Just like in taking care of your health, prevention will always be better than cure. Take the time to scan through shoe care products at the grocery store next time you shop for home supplies. Read up on what substances can help preserve the suede material of your shoes.

Your family and friends would probably recommend getting a leather protection or a preservative spray which since these are commonly used for this purpose. Remember that these substances can make or break your pair of suedes. It doesn’t hurt to be sure by researching thoroughly, asking around and consulting shoe care experts.

Remember: Haste makes waste

This is probably the golden rule of shoe care. Hurrying, in any form, can lead you to drop, bump or splatter anything, anywhere. And this includes you. Decrease the risk of ruining your outfit for the day giving an ample time to prepare. Always a lot a lead time to get you help you relax and settle down before any action at work or in school begins. But when the inevitable happens, don’t panic. Getting a stain on your suede is not the end of the world. Just wipe it out and pretend nothing happen. Wage the cleaning battle when you get home where you have the right tools that would help you deal with the delicate problem.

Check out July's Crimson Red Shoes, hmm curious why crimson? You better visit the page to know more.

Sitting on a salon for hours makes your brain gone wild, from one gossip to another, each movement of the people around, the things they are wearing almost everything, so to keep my mind busy from meddling from their affairs and being the “maldita” I suppose I am, the best and most safest way one can do is to keep busy reading magazines, that is if there is no wi-fi available.

Anyway, browsing the magazine I already forgot the name, was it Vogue or Candy, doesn’t matter, an idea pop up my mind, well not just an idea but lost of it, fashion, jewelry, shoes, cosmetics, relationship etc, etc, and here is one of those topics that pops my head.

Isn’t this bittersweet? This certain phrase came from the lyrics of the song One More Night of Maroon 5’s Overexposed Album and it keeps on ringing in my head. If only Adam Levine choose me and not those Victoria’s Secret type he wouldn’t experience this. (Oh come on, I know your raising your browse, but hell, who didn’t have hot’s for Adam Levine?)

Well going back to the topic, (have I already mentioned?), our theme for today is How to Keep your Man Want You More than You Want Him. It’s not a step by step process, just some itsy bitsy teeny weenie bits of ideas, things you already have combined with your boldness that needs just a little bit more push a prowess that all women have in their DNA.

1.A Red Luscious Lips. Surely not all women would look good on a red lipstick, but a luscious one would probably catch attention. Practice your pout, I don’t care what shade you’ll be wearing, but I’m hoping it’s not black. Choose something with shine and moisturizer to keep your lips look kissable for hours (4 to 8) as well as prevent lips from drying. Remember to wear one that is transfer resistant just in case you receive a bone melting smooch or two.

2.Try something different. Sticking to a routine is good when it comes to certain things, but when it comes to a relationship it’s a total turn off, boring, and might lead to separation. For example, Friday Night is movie night, instead of going to a movie house prepare a meal at home, rent a DVD, and cuddle on the sofa, it might lead to something much more better and hotter.

Maybe he already reserve a ticket, of course you don’t want to waste it, so I suggest to wear your little black dress that has been hanging on your closet for months, put on a nice shade of gloss, slip on your killer stiletto and be naughty and nice by going panty less. Then tell me what happened next (wink wink).

3.Strength, Ambition, Confidence. Only Knights and Prince’s would want a girl that always act like a damsel in distress, someone who always needs attention, protection and care, practice your strength, show him your dependable, that you can take care of yourself when he is away or when he needs someone to lean on, being too clingy leads to a fucked up relationship and even knights need someone they can count on even kings need a queen whom he can trust his kingdom during war.

Have an ambition, your world should not revolved solely on him, have a life of your own, an ambition you would chase, you would work hard for because the moment you become a mother and wife, you’re full attention will be fixed on your family.

Keep in mind that when you are strong, when you are working towards your dream, all will lead to confident, witty and attractive women that only losers would shy away.

At the end of the day, it’s just a give and take type of journey, you need him more than he needs you and he needs you more than you could ever know. Don’t be too fixated that you need to be much stronger than he is, more confident, more ambitious than your man. Remember that in every man there is a boy, always.

My, my. Aging has definitely hit some people hard. And unfortunately for celebrities who are always on the spotlight, people can see how they change – from their fashion styles to their fashion jewelry, to how they wear their hair, their figures and especially their faces.

Christina Aguilera, who has always been in constant wordless competition with Britney Spears ever since they both started in Hollywood has been plagued by critics for her fashion, body and style transformation. Here’s a look back at how things have changed since the day she got what every girl wants.

Sweet. Young. Fresh. Bold and talented. That’s how Christina Aguilera looks in this picture. Despite the fact that her hideous gold midriff-cut top and gold pants may not be passable for today’s fashion style, it was what everyone was wearing at the time she wore it. She was an icon. An icon for singers and fashion for young ladies. Besides, who wouldn’t want to look as sweet as she did back then? Back then, she didn’t even need make up to look good!

A little older a few years later, Christina Aguilera looked fashionable elegant in June 2006. Her bustier dress was highlighted by a diamond chain necklace and a bright red belt that clung to her hour-glass figure. She even matched her lips to her belt and the red clip that kept her hair in place. She now wore more make up, but her face was still pretty much as gorgeous as a few years before.

Looking a tad bit too “birthday cake-y” in this outfit for the 2007 Grammys, Christina Aguilera finally found out how to tan herself. Unfortunately, in this light pink strapless gown with brown chiffon bow, the orange skin really didn’t make her look better. However, we do have to give her props for adding those huge diamond hoop earrings to her outfit – it definitely helped to spice up her dress. Careful on the tanning, Christina, pink and orange do not go well together.

Here’s the Christina we know and love. Fresh faced, simple, elegant and sophisticated. In this simply gorgeous Versace gown, the singer shines at the Golden Globe awards in 2010. She wasn’t overly sexy, she didn’t have too much make-up. She was just right. Her beautiful dress was partnered with a pair of crystal dangling earrings and bracelets that made her outfit simple but definitely elegant. After appearing in a Lady Gaga type of outfit a few years earlier, this was definitely a huge relief for fashion gurus.

Oh we love you Christina, but there’s just something not right about this outfit. Maybe bright purple and bright pink are just too bright to go together. The singer definitely looks healthy and her face has gained some weight compared to her former looks. However, her huge multiple rings are just too much for her outfit and the crystal necklace that hugs her neck is just too much for her overly bright outfit. Something to remember, folks, bright purple is never stylish without reason.

A sultry congressional aide reportedly had 50 photos of La Lohan in his phone. This gave birth to this very public hullabaloo with the Liz and Dick star. She could just have thrown her chunky wedge boots at Christian which could have knocked him out easily – just sayin’.

According to a Mail Online news, Lindsay and the accused Christian LaBella met a New York nightclub on Saturday before the incident. Both partied hard until the wee hours on Sunday and went with some other friends to the classy W Hotel to continue the happening. It was here that Lindsay found out of the massive number of photos taken from the group’s shindig. This made her upset to the point of snatching the camera and deleting the photos herself.

Was La Lohan having a bad hair day that’s why she didn’t like those photos? Well, the police might not have taken a look at that angle as of this moment. But for the meantime, here are 5 effective ways on how you can say goodbye to bad hair days:

1. Know your hair type

From experience, I’ve learned that good understanding is necessary in order to care of something or someone. It’s pretty logical I think. One would be able to give what is required only when you know what it is. The same goes for our hair. How would you be able to make dry hair healthy if you don’t actually know it’s dry, right?

2. Eat a balanced diet

What does food have to do with our hair? Well, a lot. The food that we eat is our body’s main source of nourishment. With that, the nutrient that we get from our food intake goes up to our scalp and down to our hair. That may not be the best illustration of it but you know what I mean. Start eating right to get glowing skin and a healthy hair.

3. Cut the vices

Smoking might help you relieve stress but we all know it carries tremendous health hazards with it. The ingredients contained in a cigarette stick and too much alcohol is harmful to the body. They deplete our reservoir of vitamins, minerals and nutrients thereby making us look limp from the skin up to the hair.

4. Get enough rest

Are you too busy to rest? Then you might just have guessed why your hair is not as bouncy. Lack of sleep can cause the body to skip its natural process of repairing and healing itself from daily wear and tear. Allow your body to recharge from time to time to get the most out of it.

5. Go for hair products that cater to your type

It may seem like getting to know your hair is a no-brainer but spending a considerable amount of time in the task would help you create a more comprehensive profile. Since there are many ways to classify our locks, read about hair length, texture and thickness to know where you belong. After that, it will be a breeze to find appropriate products for your hair.

Lindsay Lohan is at it again. What would she do next? Perhaps you have some ideas in mind, why not post it down below and let's see who will guess right.

Who would’ve thought that after her engagement and wedding to England’s well loved prince, William, Kate Middleton would continue to be up front and center on the pages of the English tabloids? Only this time, it was not about her great fashion sense that can make an ordinary pair ankle boots look like a million bucks. She was not wearing a McQueen wedding gown. In fact, Kate was not wearing anything at all. I’m talking about the nude photos of her while spending the day sunbathing. These controversial shots were published in Closer magazine.

The Duchess of Cambridge and Prince William have remained mum and calm amidst the issue. According to the Royal family’s spokesperson, they are letting the ongoing legal case do the talking for them. These actions would surely not make the matters any worse.

Looking at the glitzy world of the rich and famous, many have fallen victims to the sly paparazzi lingering around them. These “celebrity spies” cover almost every inch of this plant just capture a would-be-scandalous photo when these celebrities let their hair down.

Here are 5 of the most scandalous paparazzi shots that walked the World Wide Web in recent times:

Celebrity Shocker # 1 Demi Moore

Before, seeing steamy photos of Demi Moore in Ashton Kutcher’s Twitter account could have passed as sweet. I wonder if Demi creeps out when she sees her photos online but not in her ex-husbands page.

Celebrity Shocker # 2 Scarlett Johansson

I’m pretty sure it scared the hell out of Scarlett when the phone got stolen. True enough, her sexy photos that she took for ex-hubby Ryan Reynolds spread like wildfire over the internet after the stealing incident.

Celebrity Shocker # 3 Lindsay Lohan

I’d like to classify this case as do-anything-to-get-attention-when-your-career-has-gone-bad. La Lohan just can’t seem to find her attention grabbing niche. Aside from all the free publicity she’s getting from the police and legal courts, the Freaky Friday star was caught on by surveillance camera walking away with a $ 2,500 necklace from a jewelry store in Los Angeles.

Celebrity Shocker # 4 Prince Harry

In one of my previous posts, we’ve dished out on how Harry joined the ranks of the celebrity wild child. Naked pictures of him from a wild Las Vegas party went viral all over the internet after it has been published by TMZ.

They are only 4 of the prominent individuals who have suffered (or somehow benefited) from the cruel hands of our technology today. Popular is not much of the “in” thing today, it’s more or less getting viral that counts.

As for Kate’s royal mishap, she’s not the only one - which makes it less of a fuss, if you ask me. We can just probably think of it as a right of passage into the world of the rich and famous. Let’s leave the matter to their army of lawyers. In the meantime, we can all savor the moment (photos) while they last.
