Peruvian Loose Wave Hair Review from Trés Jolie Boutique (video)

By 1 Comment

2013-03-281

As you all have seen in my last few “What I Wore” posts I have new hair! If you follow me on any of the social media channels you would have seen pictures of my installation as well. Anywhoo, today I am reviewing the hair that I purchased from Tres Jolie Boutique. This is my first hair review so bear with me lol.

I found out about Tres Jolie through my friend Kim. We were both talking about getting weaves for the spring and I was having an issue finding “good hair.” There are a lot of scam artist out here today and I want to make sure that I get what I pay for. So Kim forwarded my info to Jennifer and after quite a few emails I finally made my purchase. There is little to no shedding which awesome because who wants a weave that constantly sheds.

Jennifer of Trés Jolie Boutique is very professional. She has excellent customer service. If I had a question I could email her and she would respond immediately. She is based in Texas and with the difference in time zones you would expect a delayed response, but not with her. Ok I’m not going to say too much but check out my video below and a few pictures of the hair.

Gone with the wind!

What I Wore: Florals and Pastel

By Leave a Comment

So I was fooled by the weather the other day. It was sunny and bright and I heard a lot of people outside so I said “It must be nice out.” Well the sun was out for about 26 seconds and then it started to rain. I was already out of the house and was not going back in to change. My shoes were not rain friendly, but I had to meet Melissa of O So Chic for our lunch date at Footprints for this rasta pasta that we have been dying for!

Because I thought it was nice I decided to wear my floral print jeans that I bought from Century 21 last August and a mint green top that I purchased from Forever 21. Take a closer look at What I Wore

These photos were snapped right before the rain storm came. We had to tie our scarves around our head and run in our heels to the car. It was funny. Oh and the highlight of the day, besides the food, was the guys playing basketball in the park BEGGING if they could be in our photos. One guy said to Melissa “Please can I take a photo with you, you can delete it later” I was in tears!
