Bumble and Bumble's Invisible Oil

I've always had an issue with not only fine/limp hair, but also flyaways and frizz (Florida humidity - I'm looking at you). So, it's been a challenge to find products that'll tame the frizz, but not weigh my hair down in the process.
Hairdresser's Invisible Oil - Bumble and Bumble | Lemon Drop Detangler Brush - Drybar
I have yet to try a Bumble and Bumble product that I didn't love, so when I saw that the Hairdresser's Invisible Oil was an Allure Best of Beauty winner I knew I had to try it out. This product tames flyaways while also adding shine immediately and over time. And the best part is, it doesn't weigh my hair down or make it appear greasy considering it has "oil" right in the name. I just add a small drop to my the palms of my hands and rub it around before applying to damp hair, and then blow dry it. If I still see some stray flyaways or frizz, I'll just add a little more to my dry hair. I will say I've only tested this in the cooler months, so I'm looking forward to see how it'll stand up against the mid-summer humidity that Florida is notorious for. 

Staycation never felt so good

Even though I'm on a much-needed vacay from work until next week, the struggle that is the Christmas "hangover" is for real. I can't believe all the excitement has come and gone, but am looking forward to New Year's Eve festivities later this week. If you follow me on instagram (@greenfashionista) or snapchat (@greenfashonista) you may have already seen most of these festive pics.
December was such a busy month with so much excitement, but I can't believe it's all over! I kicked off my holiday stay-cation on Christmas Eve-Eve with one last Bar Method workout before Christmas, wrapping of the last few presents, and one more batch of creme de menthe cookies
There was also a late night FedEx delivery from my aunt with a framed picture of my grandparents when they were waiving goodbye at their wedding to leave for their honeymoon. Before opening anything else later that weekend I already knew this was hands down my favorite gift. I miss them beyond words!
It felt amazing to sleep in on Christmas Eve and get ready to visit with my fav neighbors before going to my in-laws for dinner, skyping with my sister and brother in-law in CT, and an extra competitive game night during dessert.
Christmas Day, I came down the stairs to see the cutest little minion peaking out of my stocking on the fireplace. Then it was time for brunch and mimosas while opening gifts and skyping with my parents and brother in CT.

On Saturday, I met up with Pamela at our favorite Mexican place for some margaritas before having a beer flight and playing some corn hole at the new brewery across the parking lot. How cute are those paddle boards that they serve the flights in?
Then it was time to go enjoy a fun game night at Emily and K's which included quality time with the adorable Miss Lola. I never pass up an opportunity to love on a bulldog pupper! Emily also sent us home with some Christmas treats including the new CAH expansion pack, a festive votive holder, and a super pretty scarf which was so sweet of her.

Urban Decay Naked on the Run Palette - I've been wanting this palette ever since it was released, and now it's been marked down. Taking an additional 20% off will make it a fantastic buy!
Urban Decay Good Karma Opitcal Blurring Brush - This brush is so pretty! And it'll be perfect for blending and buffing makeup for a flawless finish.
Becca Shimmering Skin Perfecter Palette -  I have the Shimmering Skin Perfecter in Moonstone which gives a gorgeous finish! So I already know this palette's shades would be in heavy rotation.
DryBar Full Pint Brush - I have the Lemon Drop Daily Detangler Brush and it has been amazing on both my wet and dry hair. No more breakage or tangles! Now I just need the round brush to complete my brush set.
Clarisonic Replacement Brush Head - I'm embarrassed to admit how overdue I am for a replacement brush head on my Clarisonic Mia. 
Bumble and Bumble Hairdresser's Invisible Oil - I've slowly been darkening my hair after frying it with blonde highlights for a few years. Unfortunately, it's still pretty dry and I've been on the hunt for a great oil to help repair it.
Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium Perfume - I received a sample of this perfume in my last Sephora order, and am loving it! It's the perfect combination of vanilla and floral scents. Definitely my new favorite scent for the cooler months.
Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette -  I've been eyeing this gorgeous palette for over a year now, and have been hesitant to pull the trigger due to the price, but with 20% off I may have to finally go for it!

Sephora VIB Sale Wish List

It's my favorite time of year! Well... almost... but you can't beat the annual VIB sale where us VIB gals save 20% off our entire purchase at Sephora. It's the perfect time to re-stock every day items, pick up Christmas gifts, and finally try out items that were too much of a splurge without the discount.
VIB Sale Wish List
To get ready for the sale tomorrow, I did some inventory on my current "loves" list at Sephora to see which items I may finally pull the trigger on.

1. NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer - I've been a loyal Erase Paste user for years to cover up my hereditary dark circles under my eyes, but ever since Biana recommended trying out this concealer I've been intrigued.

2. UD Primer Potion - aka my holy grail of all products. This little tube keeps my eye makeup fresh all day and even into the night for after work happy hours and outings.

3. Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette - Such a gorgeous palette that I just can't bring myself to purchase due to the price, but with the sale it may be time to go for it.

4. Classic Crease Shadow Brush - I've been looking for the perfect brush for applying shadow in the crease of my eyelids.

5. BECCA Ever-Matte Poreless Priming Perfector - I've been on the hunt for the perfect primer to keep my face looking matte even in the heat of Florida summers. So when the always flawless looking Deborah recommended this primer, I immediately added it to my wishlist and it's definitely time to finally try it out.

6. Sculpt Curling Wand - I'm such a dunce at doing my own hair (hence the need to go to a blow dry bar before big events) so I'm hoping that a curling wand will help me get those beautiful waves that a lot of you girls rock so effortlessly. *Fingers crossed*

7. Clarisonic Replacement Brush Head - I'm definitely overdue to replace the brush head on my Clarisonic Mia. Better yet, I should pick up a 2 pack while I'm at it....

8. Bumble and Bumble Thickening Hair Spray - I was skeptical at first of this product since I have such fine hair, but it really does give my hair the extra "oomph" it needs and feels thicker after blow drying.

9. UD Naked2 Basics Palette - I'm just a total sucker for all the Naked palettes, each one has been absolutely amazing in it's own way. I may need to add this one to my collection.

10. Tory Burch Eau de Parfum Spray - Such a pretty feminine scent and bottle, love the whole package.
