Los Angeles, California




sexy HOTEL - THE STANDARD DOWNTOWN,
LOS ANGELES
550 S. Flower Street, Los Angeles
+1 (213) 892-8080

The Standard Downtown Hotel is a chic destination for visitors to Los Angeles. It's also a great stomping ground for any local resident who wants to be reminded of the beautiful metropolis that they live in.

Don't miss out on the experience on the rooftop deck for sipping a cocktail. High above the ground, amongst the highrise buildings, you'll experience a feeling of empowerment underneath a glorious forest of glass and lights.

During the day spend time lounging in luxury; new sexy lounge beds have been scattered under the California sun.




















sexy ARCHITECTURE - WALT DISNEY CONCERT HALL
111 S. Grand Avenue, Downtown Los Angeles

Don't miss the sexy curves of Frank Geary's magnificent music hall that was completed several years ago. I haven't heard a concert there yet, but I've been told it's sensational to the ears.


sexy DINING - PORTA VIA
424 N. Canon Drive, Beverly Hills
+1 (310) 274-6534














Porta Via ia a quaint, cozy bistro bar that's nestled in the hub of Beverly Hills. Forget the tourists on Wilshire and Rodeo; only two streets away is Canon Drive. It's a great place to experience the local flavor and to enjoy the people watching.

Try the smoked salmon scramble for breakfast. I felt like kissing the cook it was so delicious. He prepared the eggs perfectly; fluffy and not over cooked. I'd recommend two orders of toast as the portions are a little small. They also have wonderful, cozy romantic booths inside. I'm looking forward to returning.


sexy BOOKSTORE - TASCHEN
354 N. Beverly Drive, Los Angeles
+1 (310) 274-4300

I love to stop by Tashen book store in Beverly Hills and thumb through the exquisite art books on erotica, pornography, art and architecture.

Taschen is a German book publisher that specializes in the arts.

Today (May 14th, 2008) I received Tashen's Spring/Summer 2008 catalog in the mail and I leafed through their latest books for sale and came across a new book that struck my fancy. It's called "THE BIG PENIS BOOK". It has over 400 illustrations on the fascinating phallus. For the men, don't miss out on "THE BIG BOOK OF BREASTS". Apparently it's been a bust out success. Frequently I see sold out copies of Tashen's book for sale on Ebay and they're tripled in price - so don't miss out!


sexy VIBRATOR LIPSTICK
























For the women on the go, this sneaky discreet toy can be tossed in your purse and no-one will know the difference. A Parisian friend of mine told me that French fashion designer Sonia Rykel has been having great success with her new line of sexy products, including a vibrating lipstick. I was not able to find her version on line, but came across a bevy of others all ranging in price from $10- $30.



sexy CITRUS JUICER - ALESSI JUICY SALIF LEMON JUICER
by PHILIPPE STARK

www.alessi.com


























Alessi is an Italian kitchenware company that was founded in 1921. French designer Philippe Stark has gone on to earn iconic success with a lemon juicer he designed for the company in 1990.

The juicer is called the "Juicy Salif "and costs $85, a new miniature version is also available and costs $42.

I love to give this sexy phallic juicer as a present. It looks stunning on any kitchen counter. It's simple to clean and reminds me of an elegant, impregnated, leggy spider.
