Pinkapalooza: Victoria's Secret parties with Behati (and Fall Out Boy)

Filed under: Handbags, Events: On the Scene, Accessories, Style in the News, Clothing, Swimwear and Lingerie, Cosmetics, Fragrance, Skin Care, Celebrities with Style




So last Thursday we found ourselves standing in blistering 80ish degree sunshine on the Santa Monica Pier. We had to wait in the corner between the coeds of USC and UCLA while they shouted "spirit" at each other. It was very peppy and just a bit intimidating.

Why were we there with rivals and cheerleaders? For Pinkapalooza, of course! Duh.

The first annual (or whenever) Pinkapalooza was thrown by the good people at Victoria's Secret Pink to introduce their new Pink Collegiate Collection (still no University of Arizona?!) to the masses. Fall Out Boy performed. It was what we in the biz call "a major event."

  • Behati & Fall Out Boy

The face of Pink, model Behati Prinsloo, was kind enough to spend some time with us and discuss the new collection and also laugh at our jokes. We think she was just being nice, but we'll take it.

Behati told us that the line was about fun and comfort. The collection features clothing that feels good, like sweats, tees and flip-flops, each adorned with either the Pink logo or a popular college (or both).

She seemed to be really excited about VS Pink, the American college spirit and Fall Out Boy, We can't say that we blame her. Pinkapalooza was a hit.
