If there’s no time to buy a new pair or break them in, consider this quick fix DIY fashion solution. Fill a plastic bag with water and place it into the tow of the shoe. Put the shoe in the freezer for 24 hours. This will gently expand the shoe for a more comfortable fit.
A Quick Hem
On a night out what do you have in your purse? Lipstick, a phone, double sided tape, some perfume … wait! Did you say double sided tape? That’s right, if you’re smart and care about your fashionable image you’ll take some with you wherever you go.
