Pink Saturday - Shopping for Pink in Santee Alley

Pink Saturday - Beverly, at the blog "How Sweet the Sound" hosts Pink Saturday. Let the color pink inspire you!

Last week, we went shopping in my closet. This Pink Saturday, I thought we could take a guided tour of Los Angeles' Fashion District, andgo shopping for Pink in busy Santee Alley. And since we're looking for pink things, let's go with someone who knows Pink - our tour guide, this lovely lady in her pink headscarf. First, some perfume at wholesale prices.

Our guide has an eye for spotting pretty things. Look at this cute strapless sundress, with a matching straw fedora!

Or this kicky sundress - neo-hippy!

But we're looking to glam it up. How about something elegant for a night out?

A beaded sheath, slimming and simple, yet glamorous?

Or something a little more exotic? Wouldn't this knock some socks off?

But perhaps you're the modest type, who'd prefer a tailored evening suit?

You can wear your high heels

Or maybe glittery sequined mules.

A hat completes the outfit.

But we're not done yet. Our guide beckons, there's more. Let's follow.....

Sexy lingerie - the final touch. So much to choose from!

Well, really, ladies. You can't get all dressed up and wear old underwear, can you??? Indulge yourselves! Let's go all out for Pink Saturday!
