Meet the Pink Lady

Energizing, gleaming and very cosmopolitan; the tiny coastal village of La Jolla is San Diego’s treasure. With its breathtakingly beautiful, chiseled hillsides dotted with opulent mansions cascading dramatically into the ocean, 19th century Spaniards aptly nicknamed it “the jewel.” Waves crash against the coves and cliffs where celebrities and sea lions alike come to explore and bask in the year-round sun. Adding to the natural beauty is an abundant trove of unique shops, custom jewelers and fashion salons tucked between quaint cafes, sassy restaurants and world famous museums. It’s easy to see why everyone from conquistadors to Hollywood royalty have found this gem of a town so alluring.
