"A woman should be pink and cuddly for a man"-Jayne Mansfield

Jayne Mansfield adored pink. In November 1957 (shortly before her marriage to Hargitay), Mansfield bought a 40-room Mediterranean-style mansion formerly owned by Rudy Vallee at 10100 Sunset Boulevard in Beverly Hills. Mansfield had the house painted pink, with cupids surrounded by pink fluorescent lights, pink furs in the bathrooms, a pink heart-shaped bathtub, and a fountain spurting pink champagne, and then dubbed it the Pink Palace. Hargitay, a plumber and carpenter before getting into bodybuilding, built a pink heart-shaped swimming pool.

Sea Doll: Love Miss Jayne Mansfield! She continues to inspire (only us "cool" cats) every day! Three cheers to all things Mansfield.
