My first Pink Saturday



Finally, I have mustered up enough courage to take part in Beverly's Pink Saturday. Beverley wrote:

"Pink represents beauty, love, friendships and a common hope shared by almost everyone around the world."

Isn't that great? During my walk around Munich on Mardi Gras, I took some pink photos. In case, you want to see some more Mardi Gras photos, please click here. Anyway, one of the best costumes I saw that day were the two ladies wearing matching Hello Kitty outfits:





Isn't that wild? Another woman wore a really hot pink outfit:



I also saw this "I Love You" heart that day:



However, the best pink photo I took at that day was the one below. Are those pink gnomes in a jewelry store window one of the cutest things you saw in a long time?



Some of you surely know about the One World One Heart event. Yesterday I posted the necklace to my winner Elaine -- in a little, hot pink organza bag. I sure hope she will like it.

  9. Welcome to Pink Saturday Birgit and thanks for stopping by.

    Mardi Gras in Munich looks fun - didn't know they celebrated. Love your hair - you obviously are adept in styling it with pretty accessories.

    Off to look at your pics of the city now - never been there, but perhaps some day.

  30. I am so glad you've joined Pink Saturdays! What a dummy I am...I thought Mardi Gras was just a Louisiana thing! I had no idea it was celebrated anywhere else in such a big way. I feel educated now! Thank you for visiting my blog. My favorite picture on your blog is the one with your hair in the Gibson girl style. Very stylish and retro!

    Welcome, welcome and welcome to Pink Saturday. Beverly and all of us are tickled pink to see you here. And you did a fabulous pink Saturday post too. Love the Hello Kitty costumes and the fact that one of the "kitties" is taking a smoke break..LOL..... As another poster said I did not know Munich has a Mardi Gras. I once met a friend for lunch under the famous clock in Munich and bought my sons their first and only pair of birkenstocks. :) Come for a visit anytime.

  33. Love the pink Hello Kitties!

    Just wanted you to know that I received the OWOH necklace. It's gorgeous. It arrived in less than a week and packaged in a pretty hot pink organdy bag with a very sweet not.
    Thank you.
