Bumble and Bumble

Wow fashionistas, am I impressed with the blowdry I just got or what?! My hair has never looked so smooth and frizz-free, and it is so silky soft! Check out a pic below!

Want to know the secret? My stylist used Bumble and Bumble products- and here are two of the ones she used that really made a huge difference... The Bb Straight blow dry cream and the Bb tonic spray.

Use the to Tonic on your hair right when you get out of the shower- it works as a fabulous detangler that prepares hair for styling (almost like a primer for your hair!) and you can also use it anytime to dampen and reactivate products already in hair.

The straight blow dry cream features Bb's very own (and very rare) gemstone blend that loosens hair's natural curves. It's part of their new breakthrough smoothing technology that improves hair condition over time for lasting softness and increased manageability. It is best for the curly, thick, coarse, frizzy, unmanageable, unruly (or any combination thereof) haired ladies like myself!

This product is best to use while blow drying your hair- it will be so straight and smooth! To style it straight, work evenly through damp hair and blow-dry, section by section until dry using a flat brush for sleek looks, a round brush for more movement and bend.

You must try these products! Do you have any bumble and bumble products? Which ones do you love!?

Bb tonic- full size $20
Bb straight blow dry- full size $29

Gucci GG Leather Belt

Hello my fabulous fashionistas! I just NEED to tell you all about one of my favorite Christmas presents that I received- this beyond fabulous Gucci leather GG belt! I have been lusting over this classic for quite some time now, and I am so excited to finally call it my own.

This lovely belt has a shining silver GG adjustable buckle. The belt itself is approximately 1 1/2"W and is made in Italy. It is designed to sit at the natural waistline; I would recommend that you take your actual measurement of where you would like the belt to sit, and order accordingly- I had to reorder mine because I ordered the wrong size the first time around. I purchased mine in Black leather but it is also available in Brown.

I purchased mine at Saks Fifth Avenue
Retail Price $340

Bobbi Brown long wear gel eyeliner

I cannot rave enough about this amazing eyeliner! I wanted to try something different, specifically a gel eyeliner, and this top-rated product by Bobbi Brown had rave reviews so I figured I'd give it a shot...boy am I glad that I did!

The Bobbi Brown long wear gel eyeliner goes on smooth and dries to a waterproof finish, and I swear it stays all day (finally I found an eyeliner that stays put!!). I have found that it is super easy to apply and goes on very precisely. This is for sure going to become a staple in my daily makeup regime!

I purchased this product in "black ink" but there are 9 colors to choose from (I think I may need a few more lol) so you can definitely find the perfect shade for you!

Available for purchase at Sephora or department stores (Nordstrom, etc)
Retail price: $22

Coach Legacy Long Down Puffer

I don't think I've worn a puffer coat since I was 8, although warm, I just find them to be so unflattering! While on the quest (for legit months) to find a new winter coat that I could commute to work in, I promise you I tried everything. It wasn't until my defeated self walked by Coach at the mall and saw this puffer coat in the winter that I said, I've tried on 100 other coats today, why not!

When I put the Coach Legacy Long Down Puffer coat on I was literally in shock- I loved it!! I never thought I could ever look decent in a puffer coat, but this coat is actually very figure flattering due to the amazing belt that cinches you in at the waist.

I couldn't recommend this coat more- it is flattering, timeless, and of course super warm! I'm actually not dreading the chillier days to come since I have this lovely and practical coat to wear.

The Coach Legacy Long Down puffer features signature Coach hardware, a two way zipper for climate control, and a removable fur hood. It is available is red, black or white- I chose the black.

Available at Coach stores and online, however I have been advised that it is selling out fast!
Retail price: $600
