NO.1. Ask :
i want to dye a leather bag...
I have a leather bag and although i love the style, size etc but I'd like to dye it black.
At the moment it's ivory and tan...
Any suggestions?!

p.s. I promise I'll hold no one responsible but myself if it goes wrong!
Answer:
Anybody?!?!?! :confused:
I've read so many posts with 'shall i dye these shoes etc' so i know some of you have 'experience'!!!!!
Even if it's just the brand of dye!?!
Answer:
I think a lot of people have spray painted their shoes rather than dye them but it can peel and i think it would peel even more so on a bag.
Hopefully someone should come along with a dying solution :)
Answer:
I've never attempted to dye a bag, not sure how you'd go about it to be honest ...
Answer:
i have dyed plenty of boots and shoes etc, but never bags. i think the dye only tends to crack if you apply it too thickly, or apply too many coats. i just use the dye the sell at simpsons etc, no idea what make it is though, but they will advise you in the shop.

  • Midnight blue velvet jacket


    NO.2. ask :
    Midnight blue velvet jacket
    I saw a rather nice version of the aforementioned jacket in a charity shop and was tempted. I didn't get it though because I couldn't think what on earth to wear it with - anyone have any suggestions? I don't generally do blue much (apart from denim) so have no experience with it!
    Any suggestions?
    g_k
    Answer:
    All I can think of it denim, but it sounds gorgeous. Silver accessories would look fab!
    Answer:
    Yes, metallics full stop would look nice with it, I reckon. Hm, jeans, silver shoes and that jacket....nice!
    Don't want to wear it with just denim though - anyone have any other ideas?
    g_k
    Answer:
    I have (surprise! :rolleyes: and yes! I have a Huuuge wardrobe!), anyway as I was saying, I have a royal blue velvet skirt suit which I mainly wear during A/W with the following colours:
    White,Pale pink, pale blue/strippy shirts for work
    Cream polo necks
    Beige polo necks
    Shirts/t-shirts and jeans and cowboy boots (jacket only)
    It basically goes with (imho): beiges, whites, creams, pale blues, pale pinks and obviously denim!
    Not a lot of variety but I do like blue velvet as it is such rich and chic colour/material.
    (one time wore it and heard someone singing “she wore blue velveeeeet“as in the movie!!!:eek: )
    Try it on to see if it goes with your complexion if at all possible! ;)
    Answer:
    Thanks, Miss S! I tried it on and it suited me OK, so that's all right!
    I might nip back and grab it tomorrow then. I wondered vaguely about pairing it with other jewel colours - emerald green, deep purple and so on, or even burnt orange?? Or am I totally barking!?

    NO.3. ask :
    Marc Jacobs purse
    I'm really sorry this is a pants post as I can't for the life of me find a piccie :o
    But I'm looking for a purse LIKE the Marc Jacobs purse that is everywhere at the mo. (the one which is about 10 inches long with two little pockets on the front and costs nearly £300!!)
    Obviously I'd love a real one but £300 is a tad too much for a purse! ;)
    (but if I can't find one I may have to get DH to get me the real one for Chrimbo!! ;) )
    Any ideas??
    Thanks!

    Answer:
    what would you wear under it?? I take it you won't be flashing your boobies like the model is?!?!
    Answer:
    was just thinking the same about what she'd be wearing under hehe :p
    i suspect in winter may be a lil chilly with nothing underneath;)
    Answer:
    I don't like the way it's open at the bottom, might be a bit chilly down there!
    Answer:
    Loving the model's expression, like "what am I doing?!" :lol:

    I won an item from ebay - came to £1.70 as mine was the highest bid - requested total from seller
    reply i got was:
    Sorry but for only £1.70 I can't be bothered to go to the post office to send the watch it's not worth my time as i've only this item to sell.
    surely you have to send the item??
    Answer:
    Yes they do! Cheeky buggar!
    I'd email her and say that you will have to leave negative if she doesn't send the item and that if she didn't want it to go for that price she should have started it at a higher price!
    Answer:
    The cheek!
    Let us know what happens...
    I hate idiots like this - they are wasting your time not vice versa!
    :mad:
    Answer:
    You'll need to file a Non-Performing Seller complaint, though it won't get them kicked off of Ebay immediately unless they've had loads filed against them.
    http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/policie...rformance.html
    And while they are supposed to sell it, there's really nothing you can do except file a complaint leave negative feedback if they don't.
    ETA: You'll need to click Additional Information to find the link to report.
