2010′s Most Scent-sational Holiday Gifts

Get all the latest on the beauty buzz tip click here

Beautiful packaging. A recognizable luxury label. A gift that's highly personal. Something she'll use again and again. Fragrance is all of these, which makes it a great holiday gift idea. But choose carefully; While giving perfume or cologne as a present can be a very thoughtful, scent preference is very specific to each individual. A scent that is absolutely divine to one can be horribly offensive to another.

So to avoid a holiday hissy fit, scope out your recipient's perfume stash or inquire casually about what types of scents she likes before you go to the fragrance counter or beauty megastore. Take the time to do some investigating, then follow your nose to a great gift!

If she wears Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue, she'll like: Dior Addict 2

Over over 200 fragrances are launched annually, but gems like Light Blue are enduring. And for good reason: Light Blue is a stunning fragrance that is a delight to both the woman who wears it and those around her. Want to gift her something familiar but with a fresh twist? Dior Addict 2 is similar to Light Blue in that it's a floral feminine scent with citrus, musk and wood notes; Light Blue's wood note being cedarwood and Addict 2's being sandalwood. Both are contagiously upbeat, joyful scents that are perfect for the vibrant woman who loves life. If Light Blue is a serene happiness, Addict 2 is slightly more free-spirited, bubbly, effervescent.

The Grimm Report CD reviews: Ali - So St. Louis

Ali

So St. Louis

Grimm Score: 3 out of 5

Ali has been a pillar to his group the St. Lunatics and to the city of St. Louis since 1993. From releasing his own album “Heavy Starch” in 2002, to dropping a collaboration album with Big Gipp in 2007, to being featured on almost every Lunatics album in existence, the president of Derrty Entertainment is too bold and determined for anyone to deny. Ali’s new mixtape, “So St. Louis” looks to invigorate the streets of his hometown for the summertime. Be that as it may, the languid and slow flow rapper relapses with a depthless release that sounds somewhat similar to his first album... Read More

BFree Review: The Urban League YP General Body Meeting

Yesterday, November 10th ya boy Bfree Paparazzi went to check out what's going on with the Urban League Young Professionals. The meeting took place at Urban League Headquarters, 3701 Grandel Square at 6pm.

.

I was pretty informative and a very network friendly. I arrived a little after 6pm and was ushered into a board room and given the break down of the organization, its history, purpose, and key points. New Memember orientation last about 8mins and it was off to do a little networking. They provided some pizza and juice/soda (sooooo bad but soooo good). After the meet & greet chit chat was done they started w/ a message from the president (Ms Kira Van Niel), followed up with info on what the Urban League was doing on national front.

.

We were then introduced to various speakers, recieved information from/about the Black Repertory Theater, learned a little bit about saving some money from the guest speakers from US Banks and to close they offered up a panel discussion w/ the "Young Leaders Panel". This panel consisted of Alderman Antonio French (21st Ward, cool brother), Alderwoman Kacie Starr Triplett (6th ward, super passion sister), and Patrick Brown Policy assistant for the City of St. Louis under Mayor Francis Slay (very insightful brother)..

.

This meeting was a virtual who's who of young executives... Boeing, A.B., Unitedway, Wells Fargo, Edwards Jones, At&t, and the list goes on. If you're interested in giving back, networking, personal growth, professional development, or just chilling and want to know what the "Go Getters" are up to... you should definitely check it out!!

.

FIVE STARS!!! KUDOS TO THE UL & THE ULYP!!

MOVIE REVIEW: UNSTOPPABLE... DENZEL DOES IT AGAIN!

Unforgettable would be another good name for this movie. Denzel did it again. Not since “Man on Fire” has Denzel delivered such a heart pounding, edge of your seat performance. This movie could be used as the definition of INTENSE. My jaws and hands were clinched almost the entire movie. The fact that this movie is based on true events makes it that much more riveting. The directing was such that you felt like you were involved with this potential tragedy. The close calls, the bravery, the heart and soul of the workers involved, all was simply amazing! I can’t wait to go see it again. This needs to be seen in a theatre for the full effect. The size of the train and the feel of the rumble and speed are not missed on the big screen.

A must see!

5 Stars *****
