How to Make Your Yellowed Converse/Vans Canvas Turn White and New Again



As a huge fan of the canvas shoes, some of us are all the time in deeply love with the white Converse/Vans shoes, even deeper than the custom painted shoes. However, what troubles them most is the yellowing of their beloved babies and speed of becoming dirty with the time goes by. This is may not only for them, but also for all of us who have the white sneakers in the shoe box. Don’t worry, there’s always a method resolving it. Today, I’m gonna share the method with you.

First of all, fill a sink half-full with warm water. Add a few drops of dish detergent into the water and mix until the water is foamy. Use a gentle bleach-free detergent. Remove immediately and transfer to dryer to dry on low heat.

Then dip a kitchen sponge into the soapy water and wring it out. Wipe off stains and dirt from the Vans by brushing them with the soapy sponge. Repeat this process until all of the dirt and stains are removed. If the rubber still has yellow spots, rub a dime-sized amount of whitewall-tire cleaner and a cloth.

For the Vans, rinse the outside of the Vans under tap water to get rid of the soap residue. Place the Vans on an old towel, and dab them with the towel to help dry them out. Leave the Vans on the towel in a dry room for a few days until they are completely dry.

At last, Spray shoes with a water and stain repellant. Water and stain repellant makes future cleaning easier and should prevent yellow spots.

In this way, with using the methods mentioned above, your beloved Converse/Vans white canvas shoes will become white and new again.

Check Out Women’s High-fashion Shoes Trends for Fall 2012



Thanks to the average women’s diversified lust for their shoes, the style and trends of the shoes could never be dull. During last a few decades, the change has been witnessed by all of us though we are the ordinary people, not the fashion icons. As a matter of fact, the verage shoe style exactly evolve from the high-fashion trends. Common as we are, we should not be too out-of-date, right? Let’s eye on the latest shoes trends.

The change of this year is that many of the hottest styles in women's shoes and boots for fall 2012 feature neither of the platform soles nor the sky-high heels. Because these two types don’t match our fashion taste any more. Instead, there's loads of fancy footwear to be excited about this season.

The Return of Classic Pumps for 2012

One trend in women's shoes for fall 2012, really isn't a trend at all. In fact, it's actually the welcome return of a classic: pointy-toed pumps. It's important to note here that I'm not referring to pumps with extremely elongated, point toes; I'm talking about pumps with toes that aren't extended, but have a pointed or almond shape, as opposed to styles with rounder toe boxes.

Women's Stylish Dress Loafers

Dressy, unadorned, and streamlined loafers are hot, as are women's flats that are inspired by men's smoking slippers. If you really want to have fun with this trend, look for styles in lush materials like suede and velvet; rich colors like burgundy, black, or deep purple; or, go really bold with styles featuring animal prints, metallic uppers, glittery finishes or shimmery stud embellishments.

Chunky High Heels

I've always been a big fan of hefty high heels, as I find them easier to walk in than stilettos, but I'm especially happy with this season's selection because there are chunky heels in a wide variety of heights, including lower heels (for a great vintage look), and higher heels, for a retro glam vibe.  

Other Fall Shoes Trends for Women

Of course, the custom converse shoes would never be out-of –date, as long as your thoughts are always in front of the fashion. If not, it doesn't matter that you have the complex of nostalgia. So, go ahead for getting what you want on the hand painted shoes

Acrylic Paint, the Savior of the Hand Pained Canvas Shoes




Nowadays, everyone loves making their common canvas shoes customized, but what disturb them most is the fear for the fading and the water. Yep, we fear the fading on the beautiful and vivid patterns, which is really awkward. Therefore, in the hand painted canvas shoes industry, here comes the Savior, the acrylic paint. These types of paint eliminate the need for turpentine and gesso, and can be applied directly onto canvas. Sure, it is unafraid of water.

Do you know why the acrylic paint can be the Svaior to the original designed Converse/Vans shoes? Let’s explore its unknown world. Between 1946 and 1949, it’s Leonard Bocour and Sam Golden who created one paint with the acrylic paint first. Then it led to the trend, in addition, paint companies made many combinations of them to match the market. In 1963, Rowney (now part of Daler-Rowney Ltd since 1983) was the first manufacturer to introduce an artist’s acrylic color in Europe, under the brand name Cryla.

How can the acrylic paint be waterproof? Acrylic paints with gloss or matte finishes are available, although a satin (semi-matte) sheen is most common. When dry, acrylic paint is generally non-removable from a solid surface. Water or mild solvents do not re-solubilize it, although isopropyl alcohol can lift some fresh paint films off. Toluene and acetone can remove paint films, but they do not lift paint stains very well and are not selective. And acrylic paint can be applied to raw canvas if so desired without any negative effect or chemical reaction as would be the case with oils.

In terms of the fading, the acrylic paint is proven to be in use for approximately fifty years. Meanwhile, acrylic paint is very elastic, which prevents cracking from occurring. Besides, it can also be applied onto different kinds bodies, such as, pastel (oil & chalk), charcoal, pen, etc. on top of the dried acrylic painted surface. Mixing other bodies into the acrylic is possible - sand, rice, even pasta may be incorporated in the artwork. 

With so many merits that really matters to the hand painted shoes, how couldn’t the acrylic paint be the Saviour?

Salma Hayek And Hillary Duff: Two New Fashion Icons




In the entertainment industry, there are not always lack of the fashion icons, but the change speed is too fast to eye on them for us. As a matter of fact, many starry performers in the spotlight are the favorites in the fashion industry, having their own keen sense of fashion, especially the shoes style. Salma Hayek and Hillary Duff are such a kind of stars.


 Salma Hayek, the Mexican actress, had always been known for her great acting abilities and great fashion style. She knows exactly what fits her, makes her stand out, and the shoes to go with everything. Hollywood loved Salma Hayek not only for her beauty but also for her brains. In fact, she was included in Entertainment Weekly’s 25 Smartest People on TV. For that, we are guessing she has been using her brains on styling herself and no one can really complain or argue with her sense of style whether on or off the red carpet. Beautifully adorned heels seemed to be a shoe trend nowadays as we have seen a lot of celebrities sporting this kind of shoe style.Salma Hayek made it looked even classier than ever when she wore the Brian Atwood Yvesse peep-toe pumps to the 38th Deauville American Film Festival in France. She paired the black satin Swarovski-embellished heel with a simple black tube long-back dress with turquoise earrings for that splash of color.

 
Hillary Duff, personally beloved actress, has been brought to public by the well-known Lizzie McGuire. In addition, she  expanded into the music world by releasing several albums, one of which even reached triple platinum. Fashion wise, Lizzie McGuire went from Texas boots, hats, and flared pants to girly Disney outfits to lady glamour. The stint on the famous series Gossip Girl must have rubbed off on her as she turned into an instant bombshell. More than that, she received a stunning engagement ring and is now happily married with one gorgeous son. Everyone should always have a foolproof outfit for those busy days. Remember that being busy is never an excuse not to be fashion worthy. Hillary Duff’s foolproof outfit would be leggings, simple blouse, and high-heel ankle booties.
