Bigger, Better and Braver…that is Christina “Brave” William’s approach to 2015, and she is doing just that with our biggest announcement yet for our client B Fragranced, a trending fragrance line. Reality TV star of “R&B Divas” and Billboard hit artist, Brave is the new official ambassador of B Fragranced
Brave’s new album “Fearless” is fitting for both her personality as well as the fearlessness that women feel with Embellish Eau de Parfum’s scent.
The essence of class, romance, and glamour, Embellish embodies all of the characteristics of female sophistication. Indulgent yet light, the fragrance infuses sparkling notes of apple and peach with a splash of citron. With B Fragranced’s mission to encourage women to embrace their feminine individuality, the effervescent notes of jasmine and honeysuckle balance the sultry base of soft amber and sandalwood to make Embellish any woman’s signature scent. Once the fragrance touches your skin, it will adjust to your body chemistry and enhance your natural scent in order to emit a fragrance that is simply your own.
Embellish retails for $54.00 for a 1.7 oz. bottle and $76.00 for a 3.4 oz. bottle at www.bfragranced.com.
Summer is just beginning, and Embellish is the ideal summer scent for any woman. Whether it is a birthday, anniversary or any other special occasion, a new fragrance is the perfect gift, and a one-of-a-kind scent that adjusts to each woman is the perfect way to celebrate her. Show your loved one how much you appreciate her individuality with a gift that’s as unique as she is.
The creator founder of B Fragranced, Marilyn Jones, lost her mother to breast cancer at an early age. Her only true memory of her mother was her mother’s scent. This sparked a passion to create a fragrance as unique as the woman who wears it. The new face of B Fragranced, Brave, is persevering through her father’s diagnosis of prostate cancer and early signs of dementia. Fate brought these two fearless women together, and with a product that they both believe in, they are working side by side to empower all women.

How many times have you been invited to someone’s home and asked yourself, “what should I give the hostess?” Proper etiquette states that we should gift something that “evokes a memory” but we want to be creative and thoughtful.
My first suggestion would be to consider the occassion. Is this a housewarming party or game night? Next, take inventory of small trinkets you already own. Have you purchased a beautiful basket or set of mason jars? Also, try to think of the interests or hobbies of the hostess. Does she enjoy cooking or gardening?
Ultimately, giving the perfect gift can be delightful for both you and the hostess. You’re adding a special touch to sincerely say, “thank you for having me at your home!”

I like to give holiday gifts to my kids teachers and special friends in the community. Unfortunately, the budget doesn’t always allow for expensive gifts. I would love to purchase (everyone) something special from Bloomingdales but that’s not always realistic.
Being a true southerner, I come from a family that loves arts and crafts and this time of the year inspires me to pull out the ribbon box. I search for inexpensive gift ideas such as baked cookies, mason jar trinkets, or gift baskets.
Honestly, anyone (whether they love arts and crafts) can add a special touch to gift giving. The trick to DIY gift ideas is figuring out what inspires you and those people in your life.
Below, you will find ideas from Pinterest that can be prepared in 10 minutes or less.
Steps for DIY Inexpensive Holiday Gifts:
1. Create a budget for the project.
2. Make a list of supplies.
3. Locate your favorite craft store and ask for assistance (if that’s needed.)
4. Set up your holiday craft station and create!
