　　17.多戴配飾(如圍巾、墨鏡、帽子、醒目的珠寶)可以馬上讓最平常的著裝改頭換面。

　　16. Confused about laundry settings? Remember this: The hotter the water, the cleaner the clothing will be. While warm water is fine for most clothes, linens and dirty white clothing are best washed in hot water to remove germs and heavy soil. Cold water is usually used for delicates.

　　16.不知道要怎么設定洗衣機?記住這點：水越熱，衣服洗得越干凈。大部分衣服用溫水洗就夠了，但是亞麻和白色的臟衣服最好用熱水洗，那樣可以除掉細菌和粘質(zhì)泥土。洗脆弱的衣服通常用冷水。

　　15. A structured hat should rest about 1/8 to a 1/2-inch above the ears.

　　12. It might sound “budget,”but a hot glue gun works amazingly well to hem skirts, pants and even jeans in a pinch.

　　12.熱熔膠槍可以很好的把裙擺、長褲腳甚至是牛仔褲腳折起來，雖然可能聽起來很“廉價”。

　　11.去洗衣房洗衣服撿到了一堆不知道是誰的單只襪子?當你身上哪里痛的時候，拿一只襪子裝滿干豆或者米，然后放到微波爐加熱30秒。Duang~馬上有了免費的熱敷器。

　　10. Wear your new real leather jacket in the rain to break it in. Water will soften up the leather and allow it to stretch and crease at specific points on your body.

　　10.穿上新買的真皮夾克去淋雨能讓它穿著更舒適。水會軟化皮革，增加它的彈性，讓它在特定的部位起皺。

　　9. Who has the time to hand wash bras? Machine wash them in cold water in a mesh zipper bag and drape them over a hanger to air dry.

　　9.誰有時間手洗文胸啊?裝進拉鏈網(wǎng)孔袋用洗衣機冷水洗，然后掛在衣架上風干。

　　6. Invest in silk or satin pillowcases to keep your hair from breaking during the night. (They also keep your skin looking smoother than rough cotton cases!)

　　6.用絲綢或者緞子的枕頭套可以防止晚上睡覺時頭發(fā)斷掉。(還能讓你的皮膚看起來比用粗羊毛枕頭套的時候更滑了!)

　　5. If you’re unsure about an impulse or sale purchase, leave it at the store. If you’re still thinking about it when you wake up the next day, buy it.

　　5.如果你害怕因為一時沖動或者促銷買到了不想要的衣服，先不要買。如果第二天早上起來你還想著那件衣服，那就去買吧。

　　4. Have a sequin garment you don’t wear anymore? Remove the sequins and sprinkle them into a vase of flowers. Gorgeous!

　　4.有一件再也不穿的亮片衣服?把亮片弄下來，撒到花瓶里。漂亮!

　　3. A good shoemaker can fully rebuild your favorite pair, even if the arch is cracked.
