DIY: Add this galaxy pattern to your plain white canvas shoes

Plain white canvas shoes are a must-have for every wardrobe. They go with dresses, denims, pants and even shorts. Not only do they make you feel relaxed and comfortable, they add just the right amount of chic to every outfit. However if you get bored of your white pair of shoes, here’s how you can add some colour and turn them around.

To accomplish this task successfully, you’ll need a tie dye kit, surface cover, fabric paint in blue & white colour, sponge brush, paint brush, gloves and of course your old shoes.

Take a look at the steps:

Put your gloves on and drench your shoes in water.

Pour some pink dye in a plate and using a sponge brush dab the colour on to the shoes leaving some spaces in between.

Now run your sponge brush under water until it is fully clean and rub the sponge on to the shoes you painted to create a water-colour effect.

Now pour a little bit of blue dye in the same plate and mix it with pink to create a purple dye and dab this colour on to the shoes just like it was done in step 2.

Do the same with the blue fabric paint, on its own and let it sit for 15 minutes to make sure the colours blend properly.

Take some white paint on the paintbrush and randomly draw dots anywhere on the shoes to create a starry look.

You can also enhance the detailing to your galaxy pattern by adding a star.

Let it dry completely and you’re done!

Reasons why having a sister is the worst nightmare ever

Sisters are an important part of every man’s lives. No matter how much you love them or hate them, they’ll always be by your side.

As Raksha Bandhan approaches, we get you a list of reasons that perfectly sum up why sisters are annoying.

1) Sisters always lookout for their brothers. Your sister can make fun of you, say anything she wants to but but BUT, if someone else does that, they are in for a world of trouble

9) No one knows the art of sarcasm better than them *taunts*

10) Sisters help you pick out presents for your boyfriends/girlfriends

Source

11) They are also the best at keeping secrets but do use them as blackmail from time-to-time

Source

12) Sisters will cook for you late at night without complaining. In fact they’ll give you company while you eat

Source

13) Talking about late at night, they get the door when you reach back home after hours and wasted

Source

14) They give the best relationship advice

Source

15) They always save you from the marriage talk that parents love

Source

16) They help you convince your parents for almost everything. Remember that road trip you took because of her?

Guilty pleasure songs that are going to stay in your head for good

Everyone has a secret playlist that defines them. And they will never completely share their music preferences with you because they don’t want you to know about their guilty pleasure songs, come what may! It’s like a dark secret kept locked away from the world which only comes out when you’re taking a shower or are too drunk to care. Check out the list of guilty pleasure songs that people would never admit they like.

To be honest, it was Meghan Trainor who caught the attention for us. The song hit us a bit late, but once we caught up with it, we couldn’t stop smiling and singing along!

#2 As Long As You Love Me – Justin Bieber

Bieber has got a massive fan following and from all his music, this was the one we got hooked to. The part where the beat drops and the chorus picks up, you can’t do anything but just move with it.

Taylor Swift is like the queen of guilty pleasure songs. Remember, Love Story by her? You know what we’re talking about!

The only reason to hear this song is The Weekend. That’s it.

Ouch! Watching porn in a classroom? Not a safe scene!

Being caught while watching porn in closed premises isn’t as bad but getting caught like this isn’t something you’d wish for. And no one knows it better than this guy in the video below.

Yes, this gentleman apparently forgot to plug in his earphones in a lecture theatre sitting in a huge crowd making everyone witness the sound of ..ermm…. the adult movie he was watching. Look what happens to him next after he wakes up from his oblivious state realising he’s going to be the talk of the campus, let’s just say – forever!
