Since discovering Clinique's Black Honey (above, far left) lipstick in the late 1990's, it has been a constant fixture in my makeup bag. Now, Clinique has expanded their "Almost" line by seven other shades--from pale pink Shy Honey (second from left) to a bright and punchy Flirty Honey (far right). I'm curious to try the more muted shades, like Chic Honey and Lovely Honey.

In the February issue of In Style, Faith Hill shares her beauty must-haves, including a BEAT favorite, Morrocanoil hair treatment.

A long weekend is the perfect time to catch a museum exhibit you've been meaning to see ... California Design, 1930 - 1965: "Living in a Modern Way" is at LACMA until June 3.

We love a getaway weekend in Vegas, and with some worthy upcoming concerts at the very stylish Cosmopolitan hotel, there's even more reason to head for the desert. David Gray on February 24, the Shins on April 13, and Snow Patrol on May 12. Tickets available now through Ticketmaster.

Click It. BEAT picks of the week.

This weekend in Las Vegas, part-time Hancock Park resident and World Welterweight Champion Manny Pacquiao (above, training with Freddie Roach at Hollywood's Wild Card Boxing Gym) will fight Juan Manuel Márquez III. My money's on "PacMan".

As the holidays approach, a great card shop (locations include Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, and Thousand Oaks).

J. Crew has some really fun bright colors (including vibrant flame and vintage violet)!

HBO's "Enlightened", so good--hilarious, with heart.

Immortals and J. Edgar at the theater this weekend.

Beautiful dark nail polish from NARS' Holiday 2011 collection.

Eat Out. Crepes.

I love a good crepe. My best crepe memories are cold afternoons in Covent Garden's outdoor market, where there was a crepe stand at the right corner entrance. They were hot and delicious--just what you'd hope for on a bone-chilling (or rainy) London day.

The strawberry jam breakfast crepe photo above was taken last month at the Jean Philippe Patisserie at the Aria in Las Vegas. They make a great crepe, but right here in L.A. we have some pretty good creperies too.

The French Crêpe Co. has locations at Hollywood and Highland, and the Farmers Market (as well as in Downtown Burbank). I like the Farmers Market location, but the quality shouldn't vary too much across all three.

A great Long Beach restaurant that Lauren introduced me to when she was living there is La Crêperie Café. It's a really cute breakfast spot, but they're also open for lunch and dinner. We had a lovely long breakfast there one time with a couple other friends, where we all drank endless amounts of Lavazza coffee. Most girls at our table opted for savory items, but I couldn't resist the Maple Madness crepe (banana, walnuts, maple syrup, powdered sugar, and whipped cream).

Bon Appétit!

Check It. The Cosmopolitan Hotel.

You've probably already seen the Tarsem-directed Cosmopolitan Hotel ad on TV.

The hotel itself (which opened Dec. 15 and I visited these past couple days while staying next door at Las Vegas' Aria) is really cool and definitely lives up to the coolness portrayed. It's modern and sleek, yet wonderfully glitzy and Vegas-y (see above) at the same time.

Check It. Las Vegas update.

Vegas update: fight night was awesome (see above). With some last minute luck, a desperate scalper, and a generous boyfriend, I ended up at the actual fight at MGM's Grand Garden Arena. It was so much fun. Muhammad Ali and Sugar Ray Leonard were there, as well as celebrities like Will Smith, Mark Wahlberg, Leonardo DiCaprio, and the Hilton sisters. Mayweather was the favorite, and he did end up winning, but Mosley was amazing in round two, and the crowd went wild. It was an experience I'll never forget.

The ARIA - pretty much all-round awesomeness. It started out great, by firstly looking so sleek and beautiful compared to some of the other gaudy landmarks of the strip that make Vegas, well, Vegas. They have convenient (free!) self-parking, which is right next to the hotel lobby. There's also valet and a taxi/limo, etc. area in front if you must. One crazy thing about the ARIA is, apparently they have no check-in time. I could have sworn I read "3:00 p.m." on their website, but I did check out several hotels online at the same time, so I could be mistaken. Beware when making reservations for a busy weekend, especially if you have evening plans that require you to be in your room by the early afternoon. The rooms are really nice, with dark walls and high-tech electronics. There's a bedside button that says "Goodnight", and it turns off everything in the room. I think I need one of those for my apartment. The bed was also wonderfully comfortable.

Margaritaville no longer serves peach margaritas. I'm hoping this will change come August.

The Jean-Philippe Patisserie in the ARIA is beautiful, and they make great crepes and espresso drinks.
