We love it when members of the Pür team make news. So when we heard that our hometown magazine The Atlantan wanted to profile CEO JuE Wong, we were thrilled. Add that she was named Beauty Queen in their “Best of Beauty” section, and we could barely keep our seats. Here’s what Atlanta’s premiere lifestyle magazine had to say about our beloved leader and chief:

The stars were shining last night, as the 69th Golden Globe Awards honored film and television’s best and brightest. And while the ceremony itself was fairly tame (barring the odd expletive from bad boy host Ricky Gervais), the red carpet run-up was anything but. Long considered the dress rehearsal for the Oscars, the Globes are where A-listers show off their more adventuresome—and questionable—tastes, and last night was no exception. Here’s your Golden Globe style sum-up—from the most stunning standouts to our favorite five-star fashion disasters.

Sometimes it’s hard to believe the holidays are almost here (especially here in Atlanta, where the temperature is still in the mid-60s). Yet as family and friends gather from near and far, everywhere there is a sense of cheer and wonder. However you celebrate it, we at Pür Minerals wish you a season filled with love, laughter and joy. While the gifts certainly delight, the thing we’re most thankful for is you. You lift our spirits just by being good to yourself and expressing who you are. In short, just by being you. From our family to yours, have a happy, safe and peaceful holiday season.

The Angels are back! The annual Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show airs tonight at 10 p.m. on CBS. Since its inception in 1995, the star-studded event has become a holiday tradition, as synonymous with the season as Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade or Black Friday, albeit, not without its share of controversy. Despite being criticized for commercialism and suggestive content, the program drew 9 million viewers last year alone and included performers Akon and Katy Perry, plus supermodel Adriana Lima in the $2 million Bombshell Fantasy Bra.

We love PrettyCity’s sweet deals and special events. (But then again, as a regular guest, we might be a little biased). If you’re a fan of discounted goodies and hip beauty happenings, you’ll definitely want to check out their holiday lineup. Next month, beauty buffs in the Chicago area will have a chance to shop last-minute gifts of glam at the December 6 Chicago Beauty Sample Sale with PrettyCity and SHAPE magazine. From 6:30 – 9 p.m., guests can try (and buy) hot items, score freebies and indulge in pampered personal treatments. Be sure to visit the Pür booth for some pür and simple holiday joy. We hope to see you there!

You don’t need a formal occasion to enjoy one of this season’s hottest looks. Taking a page from the handbook of classic men’s formal wear, tuxedo-inspired blazers are fall fashion tour de force. If you think he looks good in that dinner jacket, wait till you try it on for yourself.

2011 has been a big year for Pür. From New York to Atlanta to Chicago, the pressed mineral pioneer has been working the fashion circuit, both on the runway and behind the scenes.
