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.
look at the intellectual dishonesty this person is displaying despite all his pedigree.
the worse part is it’s not just banter, they really believe what they’re saying.
I put together a short guide that breaks Supply Chain into 9 career paths and shows:
• What each role does
• Entry level job titles
• Salary ranges
• Tools used on the job
• Interview questions
• Career growth opportunities
• A 30-60-90 day plan
There’s also a quick quiz at the end to help you identify the best path for you.

Don’t let the jealous sore losers make you forget how significant it is that Messi won the World Cup at 35 years and has made the semi finals at 39 years, while being the outright best player for his team. 10GA in 2022. 10GA so far in 2026.
Ibrahim Hassan, assistente da seleção do Egito, revela estratégia no jogo contra a Argentina: "Não falávamos o nome do Messi".
“Hossam (técnico do Egito) falava dele (Messi) com os nossos jogadores como 'o camisa 10'. Ele não falava 'o Messi', porque poderia causar certo temor nos atletas. Ele queria fazer com que os nossos jogadores sentissem que aquele adversário era apenas mais um atleta.”

Let’s put the 8 goals and 2 assists in 6 games aside for a moment, the fact Messi has just completed 2 back to back 120 minute games played at a very high intensity at 39 is insane.
His athleticism and longevity always gets overlooked when people talk on his brilliance.
Our hate for Argentina is making us ignore things like this. If it happened the other way around, everyone would be talking about it
It’s football, moments like this happen. But the outrage only seems to appear when it’s Argentina
