Diva On A Dime
Diva On A Dime Fashion & Beauty Tips
Every Diva On A Dime knows that you don't have to spend a fortune to look like a million dollars - you just have to have a few tips and tricks up your well-pressed sleeve!
Fashion tips
Never spend more than 25% of your budget on high fashion items.
Leave price tags on for two or three days to make sure you really want it.
When second-hand shopping, try to buy simple shapes. Simple styles are more easily altered.
If buying vintage, be sure to check that the hemline of the garment has enough material for any necessary alterations.
Check out charity shops in wealthy areas. They're more likely to have designer clothing.
Anything black looks like it cost more.
Add a vintage brooch to your daytime handbag or shoes to give them an evening look.
Don't worry if you've happened upon a fantastic find but it's in the wrong colour. If it's made of natural fibre, a box of inexpensive dye can create the perfect match.
It's not a bargain if you never end up wearing it!
Beauty tips
Repair a broken lipstick by heating it with a hairdryer. Then reattach and leave it overnight in the fridge.
Bring a dried-out mascara back to life by standing it in a glass of warm water.
Storing nail polish in the fridge will help it keep longer.
If you find eyebrow tweezing painful, hold an ice cube over the area first to numb the nerves before you start.
Soften winter feet by coating them in Vaseline, wrapping them in plastic wrap and sitting down in front of telly for a couple of hours.
