WHAT WE’RE WATCHING
CHRISTA : The Gray Man (Netflix) is a fun John Wick/Jason Bourne style movie with a really high audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes – maybe it’s big cast which is it’s appeal — Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans, Billie Bob Thornton, Ana de Armas, and Julia Butters. Or maybe because it’s action packed with epic explosions, fights, and car chases! So whether you’re interested in Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans or interested in action and mystery, this one is fun to watch.
MEGAN : Partner Track (Netflix – 10 episodes) is currently on a bunch of top 10 lists, and you know me – I have show FOMO. It’s soapy, fun and current. There’s a love a triangle and work drama, great fashion, NYC and it’s a law show. So far, I’m loving it and crossing my fingers for season 2.
RANDOM STUFF WE LIKE
CHRISTA : I’m always looking for something to add more volume in my hair. I still like the Kristen Ess Volumizing Mousse, but recently tried the new Color Wow Xtra Large Bombshell Volumizer after seeing so many ads. It works great, and because it’s free of alcohol it doesn’t dry my hair. It definitely adds volume, has some heat protection and holds my style when I add waves. If you’re still looking for something to add volume to your hair, try this one!
WHAT WE’RE LISTENING TO
MEGAN : Current podcasts that I’m consuming like a Chick-fil-a value meal. Follow along on Apple Podcasts or where ever you listen to your favs. Smartless, Dear Alice, Fashion Crimes and Girls Gotta Eat
