Hair dryers – what’s your favorite?

#hairdryer #hairstyle #stylingtools On Friday my hair dryer died. It went out with a small flame and a puff of smoke. But when I went back to my older hairdryer that was in storage I realized how much a difference this hair dryer made. I ended up ordering another one of these because they are so cheap but now I’m curious, what’s everyone’s favorite hair dryer???

However I will say I’m also loving the texture and the colors when up close with this sweater as well. My only complaint is that the sleeves are just a hair short so I went ahead and pushed them up and they looked fine. Still worries me that it might shrink but hopefully not!

Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil Shampoo {repurchased}

#guiltypleasure #shampoo #birchbox #shuuemura I use this about 1-2x a week and it will last a year that way. At $55 I can’t bring myself to use it daily but it guarantees a good hair day for me and seems to have some lingering effects.

I don’t know that I want to know its EWGEWG Environmental Working Group - an organization focused on research to make informed choices and live a healthy life in a healthy environment. score but I will post that soon. It looks like I’m going to have to type out the ingredients for this one since it’s not online (or rather the one place I found the ingredients listed it doesn’t match.)

Brahmin purse

So I don’t know the name of this style and I do know that my mother purchased it at an outlet mall which explains why it’s a discontinued style already. I really love the shape and size of this purse though. And the fact that I can wear it as a shoulder bag as well as a crossbody bag. And I can put an ipad mini or a kindle in that front pocket.

This is my first Brahmin bag but I’ve had my eye on them for awhile now. Part of the reason I think I didn’t have one until now is that I actually liked so many of the bags. My mother actually sent me a lot of photos while she was shopping and honestly in the end I still couldn’t decide. I narrowed it down to two bags and I had her choose. This is not like me – I’m actually usually very decisive.
