Here’s the deal: Toyota Corolla lent me a 2014 whip for the weekend and encouraged me to pick up my girlfriends and ride around town. I was like, duh. Any chance to drive something other than my 2003 Xterra with (dog) fur-covered back seats and the “Service Engine” light on, I’ll take it. Their tagline for the swanky new car is #UnexpectEverything, but I chose to spend our Saturday doing something pretty, um, expected: Pampering from head to toe and documenting the process. But don’t worry–I didn’t Instagram while driving (did you expect that)?

First stop: White Salon and Spa where I walked in with a mane (more like a mange) I hadn’t washed in…wait for it…an entire week (plus a few hours). Just another freedom of being single! See video above if you think you can handle the hotness.

We snapped our obligatory #CorollaDayOut #UnexpectEverything shot in front of my shiny, new ride…

Stay tuned for the #unexpected…
