Once you learn how to shop directly from China, E.g Temù or shien your wardrobe changes completely. Call me cheap I don't care I ain't rich, I don't do fraud.😭
It's knowing what to search for.
Here's my style after making plenty of mistakes.
1. T-shirts:
Skip 100% polyester unless you're buying gym wear.
Instead, search:
• 100% Cotton
• Combed Cotton
• Heavyweight Cotton
• 240-300 GSM Cotton
• Premium Cotton
• Mercerized Cotton
The heavier the GSM, the thicker and more premium the shirt usually feels.
2. Jeans:
Denim Jeans
Temu is surprisingly good for denim if you know what to search.
Search:
• Denim Jeans
• Cotton Denim
• Raw Denim
• Selvedge Denim (if available)
• 98% Cotton + 2% Elastane
• 99% Cotton
Avoid jeans with high polyester content. The more cotton, the better they'll age and feel.
3. Body-hug clothing:
Search:
• Ribbed Knit
• Modal
• Viscose Blend
• Cotton-Spandex Blend
They hold their shape much better than cheap polyester.
4. Hoodies
Search:
• 400 GSM
• French Terry
• Cotton Fleece
• Heavyweight Hoodie
5. Chains
Search:
• 316L Stainless Steel
• Titanium Steel
• PVD Gold Plated
• Vacuum Plated
These are far more resistant to fading than ordinary fashion jewelry.
6. Earrings
Search:
• 925 Sterling Silver
• 316L Stainless Steel
• Hypoallergenic
• Moissanite (if you're buying stones)
7. Scarves
Search:
• Mulberry Silk
• Silk Blend
• Cashmere Blend
• Wool Blend
• Viscose
Avoid the shiny, thin polyester scarves if you're after a premium look.
8. Loafers
Search:
• Genuine Leather
• Cow Leather
• Full Grain Leather (rare but worth looking for)
• Rubber Outsole
9. Sneakers
Search:
• Rubber Outsole
• EVA Midsole
• Breathable Mesh
• Leather Upper
• Stitched Sole
Pictures lie a lot
The description usually tells the truth.
Here's how I shop:
1. Read the material composition before anything else.
2. Sort by Most Orders or Best Selling, not cheapest.
3. Only buy products with lots of reviews or pictures or even better when a Nigerian has purchased it before they always tell the truth.
4. Read the 1-star reviews first. They'll tell you what the seller won't.
5. Look at customer photos, not the product photos.
6. Check the weight of the product. Better quality clothing is often heavier.
7. Read the size chart. Don't assume your Nigerian size matches.
8. If the title has words like "luxury," "premium," or "designer" but the material is 100% polyester, not everything but still move on.
Your best friend isn't the product picture.
It's the material, the reviews, and the customer photos.
That's how you separate the gems from the junk.
I hope this help.
Things are to expensive for a country this poor.
Damn! Thank you for this. I just followed the instructions and turned mine OFF. They clearly stated they’re using my data for the improvement of third-party products and services.🤔
Layi reminds me of the HR Director in ExxonMobil that year. He finished with 2.2 but omo, the man brain dey spark fire. He is super intelligent.

ExxonMobil takes 2.2 just so you know.

Worked for 7years in ExxonMobil Nigeria and my life changed forever!

Today I could not go to the hospital but I called earlier this evening and I was told she was rushed into resuscitation room because she was not breathing well and she has been placed on oxygen, I really didn't see that coming, initially we thought dialysis will be every 3 days but now it's everyday 😞I was hoping with the dialysis yesterday she would even get better but everything seems to take a turn for the worst 🥺
Thank you all so much for the reposts, even though the algorithm is not pushing it well I am still more than grateful 🤲
my mum said she saw like 35k in the account that was uploaded, I don't know if it's from X
Wherever it is from
Thank you so much 🙏
Please kindly put her and us in your prayers and kindly help forward to people who might want to help, I have her pictures and videos but they don't look pleasing at all I would have posted but if you want to see for proof or even a video call, I am up for it please 🤲
Please don't stop helping to repost🙏
Yesterday, I talked about how Shell uses the CAR framework during interviews.
(https://t.co/O5rQQXrCcO )
And mentioned how STAR works.
But what if I told you that the real OGs don’t even use STAR?
They use STAR-R.
This thread is about that second, all-important, R. 🧵
