PINK’S, Los Angeles Dogs

Okay, so it’s a “Legend” in Hollywood.
It even has its own Wiki page.

We saw the line stretched down N. La Brea before we saw the Stand itself.

PINKS.

So, we ordered Chili Dogs, Chicago Dogs, Ozzie Dogs, Martha Dogs, even a hot dog handbag (beaded, of course….)

Pinks LA chili dogs and onion rings

Not just a meal, an adventure.
At the end of the day, I found myself making excuses for my Great American Hot Dog build up to my Japanese friends who probably wondered why all the fan fare. I should’a cooked this stuff at home. It would have been better.

If you do want a decent hot dog without the SAG card, try just about any stand in Chicago…or if you find yourself out and about, try Jimmy’s in Easton, Pennsylvania.

Yeah, a bit of a commute, but lots less hype over a better hot dog.

“It Girl”…as opposed to “That Girl” (or how ’bout “Hey YOU”)

Sally Hansen Nail Polish Strips

Sally Hansen (I remember her from the ‘Hard As Nails’ fingernail fortifying polish days—though now she seems to render all parts of the cosmetic beast….including depilatory creams, bleaches, tweezers, well…..x, y, z…) offers up Florescent PINK!! Polish Strips. Think Minx and subtract $50, one salon visit and a training program.

I think I may have been right about the sticker concept approach to begin with…..

Sally Hansen Salon Effects in It Girl pink

They offer a range from glitter effect (one matches some Christian Louboutins we spied for Spring at Neiman Marcus), solid gold (not the rerun television show), and a ‘neato-’ floral print that might encroach on Liberty of London.

$5.99. (sadly, does not include the matching Louboutins).

Lady Dior–Cherubs galore

Something about this lovely Rose Clair Lady Dior—They call it Large, but I beg to differ, ah, but If I were a Japanese gal….maybe 5′4″….well, then it would be Large.

Lady Dior in rose claire

At 5′8,” this looks somewhat diminutive in proportion, so I’ll call it Small.

But……I’ll also call it PERFECT for Valentines Day (or White Day….depending upon which side of the dateline you call home).
The perfect ballet pink, it is almost a neutral. Truly yummy with grey and ivory, white, black or navy, it is a rich and creamy colour that is enhanced by the quilting. We love it in the matte lambskin (the patent variety loses the luxe of the patina) and the silver tone hardware updates it for Spring.

Pair this with a dozen roses, Fella–you’ve got the yyc vote for V-Day Victory. Add a Celestine nightie and robe and We’ll propose to you!

Jessie (really fun to work with and knows her line) at Saks Tyson’s Corner, Virginia also has a Gorgeous (Cupid Worthy) Scarlet number–in the $2800 shopper–really beautiful. Perfect to shove your Godiva booty in my dear.

And, of course, two of the newer options for Spring (Courtesy of Saks’ Dior rep, Jessie) Rosato (it’s a soft pinkish beige) and Begonia–truly what I’d call the PERFECT Valentine Pink!

The style is dubbed the Panarea which might translate into something truly romantic in some language other than French or English….but to me sounds like either a form of Digestive disorder or a Franchised Bread Cafe haunted by high school girls.
