I know what you’re thinking… Shareen, it’s Monday! Unfortunately due to the beautiful NJ weather and the numerous amount of inches we have accumulated over the last month or so, this post is a little late but regardless it’s a Throwback to one of my favorite Style Icons – Brigitte Bardot. She is known as the Queen of Boho Chic. This style has made a big come back especially during Festival season. What I love most about the Boho look is that you can dress it up or down and still look super chic.

How cute is this dress from boohoo.com?! This dress screams Brigitte Bardot and 60’s/70’s fashion to me. It’s feminine, flowy and floral. I would have loved to pair this dress with a cute pair of sandals but since it’s freezing here – I paired it with over the knee boots, a black bag and a braided thin belt to clinch the waist.

I wanted to show you how versatile a piece like this could be so here are two other ways you can style this type of dress.

Some other celebrities who rock the Boho Chic look flawlessly would be Nicole Richie, Kate Moss & Mary-Kate Olsen. This style is timeless and I don’t see it going away anytime soon. Click HERE to shop more 70’s fashion with boohoo.com.

I love adding curls to my hair, so when I was chosen to test & review the KISS InstaWave I was super excited.

KISS-InstaWave
My first impression was what a super cool & easy to use product BUT there is noooo way this will work… boy, was I wrong!

So… what is the KISS InstaWave?

The revolutionary KISS InstaWave is a fully automatic tangle-free curler that instantly creates beautiful, long-lasting curls with ease (No Need to be a Pro). The KISS InstaWave uses Ceramic Ionic Technology to help protect your hair while giving you tight curls and shiny hair. It features two heat setting (low and high) with the hottest setting reaching a maximum temperature of 420° F. It also has a 90 minute auto shut-off safety feature in case it’s left on by accident.

To use it is super easy as well… only 4 steps!

Instawave setp-1

Hold InstaWave up-right and place 1 to 2 inches of hair onto curler.

Instawave setp-2

Press button to instantly catch hair and rotate curl barrel. Hold button until hair is fully around barrel, then release.

Instawave setp-3

Allow barrel to heat hair for 3 to 10 seconds

Instawave setp-4

Pull InstaWave gently downward to release a beautiful curl.

Seems easy enough right? I have to say, it took me a few times to get the hang of having my hair catch on but eventually I got it. I think this is one of those products where practice makes perfect.

Here are my results with the KISS InstaWave:

I absolutely loved the curls it created. Long, bouncy with volume & best of all… natural looking. It also cut the amount of time it takes to curl my hair in half. I can’t wait to recreate more looks with the InstaWave as well as different types of curls.

It really is such a cool product and only $59.99! To purchase the Kiss InstaWave, please visit their site: KISSinstawave.com.
