In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: It's very possible that you have an old bandana lying around the house, but if not, visit your local craft or fabric store and purchase a bandana. You can get them in almost every color, and they should be all the same size. Lay out the material on a table or on the floor and make a square with the material that is 22 inches by 22 inches. Most bandanas come shaped as a square and usually have measurements close to 22 inches by 22 inches. However, if your bandana is larger than this, simply fold down each side until it measures 22 inches. You can use a sewing machine or needle and thread to sew each side of the bandana if it is too large. This will keep the sides in place and make it easier to construct a blindfold. You can also glue down the sides with tacky glue, hot glue, or simply fold them over and readjust them anytime they start to become unfolded.
Summary: Purchase or use an old bandana. Make a square with the bandana.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Dark blue jeans look great with almost any type of top, and you can dress them up or dress them down. If you don't already own a great pair of jeans, find a pair! Look for darker washes, such as indigo. Also, try to find a pair of jeans that have a bit of stretch for a more flattering look. Avoid anything that's tight or that has a strong waist. Instead, look for clothing with elastic waists in lightweight fabrics so you'll be more comfortable. If you like jeans that are embellished, make sure to consider where the details are located. Jeans that have too much flash in certain areas can be unflattering. For example, if you are trying to minimize larger thighs, then a pair of jeans with gems or sequins along the thighs might have the opposite effect. Opt for high-waisted jeans to help smooth out your midsection. Avoid low-riders. The waistband of your jeans should also fit comfortably on you and it should not create extra bumps around your middle. A white dress shirt is a great go-to piece that creates clean, slimming lines. You can wear it for work with a 2-piece suit or blazer and skirt, or you can wear it with a pair of jeans to go on a date. Make sure that the shirt fits you well and is made from quality materials, such as 100% cotton. If you are not sure about your size, you might want to get measured in the store to find the best fit for you. A 2-piece suit is a must-have for anyone's wardrobe. It is a professional staple and you can also wear it on dates and to special events. You can dress a 2-piece suit up or down with different shirts and accessories. Make sure that the suit fits you well for the most slimming effect. Opt for darker colors as well, such as navy, black, or dark grey. A 2-piece suit can be expensive, so you might consider how much you will use it before buying. If you can wear it for your job, then it would likely be worth splurging on a high-end 2-piece suit. However, if you don't have a job where you could wear it, then watch for a sale or skip this item altogether. Tunic-style shirts are those that come down to your hips and they are the ultimate slimming top. They have a slimming effect because they are so long. Get a few tunic tops (or longer shirts) in different colors to mix and match with the rest of your wardrobe. Look for tunics or longer cardigans in lightweight fabrics like jersey and rayon. Try pairing a tunic top with a pair of jeans for a casual look, or wear a tunic top with a 2-piece suit for a professional/dressy look. Shapewear is what you wear under your clothing to make your clothes look better on you! There is a lot of great shapewear available for just about every shaping need. You can get shapers that will slim your waist, hips, and thighs, or just 1 of these areas. You can also get pantyhose that will provide all over shaping benefits for your legs, waist, hips, and thighs. Try on the shapewear before you buy it to ensure that it does what you want it to do. Make sure to put your clothes on over the shapewear to see how effective it is.
Summary: Get a pair of dark jeans that fit you well for a go-to piece. Invest in a nice, white dress shirt to create classic, clean lines. Purchase a 2-piece suit to mix and match. Buy some tunic tops in different colors to cover wide hips and thighs. Find some quality shapewear to help you achieve a smoother look.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Clean your shoes after wearing them to prevent them from showing signs of dirt and wear. Combine a small amount of water with a mild liquid detergent or shoe cleaning solution and lightly scrub away dingy and discolored areas. Wet a washcloth and wipe away any dirt and debris clinging to the shoes' outsoles. By taking good care of your sneakers and keeping them clean, you can ensure that they stay fresh and vibrant for as long as possible. Look for specially-designed brushes online or in shoe stores that can be used to clean and polish delicate materials like suede. Treat dirt and other stains immediately to keep them from setting in. The more you wear a particular pair of shoes, the faster that pair will wear out. Try not to lace up the same pair of shoes every day. Select a different pair every couple of days to minimize stress, foot contact and exposure to the elements. When you're not wearing a pair, give it a gentle wipe down and store it somewhere cool and dry. Store your sneakers in their original boxes, or stash them somewhere that's climate-controlled and away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Too much sunlight can cause colors to fade, while especially hot or cold temperatures can degrade the materials that the shoes are made from. Choose your footwear carefully for a given day. It might not be a good idea to wear a pair of leather or suede sneakers if the forecast is calling for rain, and black hi-tops will be less comfortable on hotter days than low cut, breathable shoes of a lighter shade. Give each pair of shoes a function, and only use that pair for its intended purpose. For instance, you might have a pair that you only work out in, another pair for that you use exclusively for hiking or slip on when you're going to get dirty, etc. That way, you won't be using every pair as all-purpose footwear, and you'll be able to keep them in pristine condition. Consider buying two pairs of your favorite shoesone to wear around and another to put on display. Pick out an older pair to serve as "throwaway" shoes that you don't mind getting dirty or beating up. Set aside a little closet space to organize your shoes, or buy a shelf or rack so that you can exhibit them out in the open. Many shoe aficionados are proud of the collections they've put together and like to keep a few of their best pairs where they can be seen. If you're going to own them, you might as well put them on display proudly. Look for inexpensive storage racks and shelves that you can convert and use to highlight some of your favorite acquisitions.
Summary:
Keep your shoes clean. Cycle out the pairs you wear often. Designate shoes for different purposes. Store or display your collection.
