I naturally have very fine and straight hair so I never have thought to invest in a flat iron. I've always wanted to but usually just use my 2" curling iron to smooth out my hair and curl the ends. When I was contacted and offered a blow dryer, I had to decline since I don't ever blow dry my hair. Instead I received this Misikko Hana Pro flat iron to try out and review for you guys. First off, I have never ever tried or used a flat iron so it's taken me awhile to get the hang of it. I have always wanted that slick straight, silky look but you can't achieve that with a regular curling iron.

Pros: Lightweight, easy to use. Comes with pouch, pad and a bunch of goodies.
Cons: Pricey at $118 but for the quality and all the freebies, maybe worth the investment if you straighten your hair often. I don't have any past experiences to compare it to so it's a bit hard to judge.
Verdict: I like the way it makes my hair feel. Definitely will be using it often.
Now on to part 1 of my Talbots shoe haul! The first 3 arrived this week- the others are on its way! I went a bit crazy but figured I can always return if they don't work out. I won't bore you with a review since there have been so many (see Elaine, Jean and Gigi's reviews) but I will share with you which ones I like and am keeping.
The D'orsay leather bow flats are so adorable and soft but size 5 is too big for me- return.
Croc-embossed peep toe pumps- size 5: still slips when I walk but I really like them and since I don't have anything like this- keeping.
Leather city sandal in golden haze- size 5: LOVE LOVE LOVE- definitely keeping! I don't know how I lucked out and got a size 5 in this color and they fit perfectly.
I also ordered the patent slingback platforms in cameo rose, patent peep toes in cameo rose, croc-embossed peep toes in chocolate, peep toe bow platforms in dark sweet almond and the metallic gemstone thongs. I am desperately looking for the suede slingbacks in sunshine/yellow size 5 so if anyone ordered it and doesn't want it- please allow me to take off your hands!:)
