My pink is well travelled - it came all the way from Benetton in Italy. The price? Who knows. I' pay anything for the perfect pink. One thing's for sure: I'm never blue when I'm in the pink! I'm feeling like my pink is a bit Hello Kitty because I'm in Japan.

I got my pink pen from a little woman on the side of the road. She said it would bring me luck. Pink makes me feel happy and sexy, so I'm sure to get lucky! My pink's personality is tres chic... It reminds me of Paris during the spring collections.

Nothing looks better in pink than Pringles! I got mine from a Kiosk for JY160. Pink makes me feel absolutely fab, particularly because Pinks is my roommate and we adore him (though Pringles are still my fave)!

Got a penchant for pink? From clothes to condoms, everything's coming up roses in Tokyo. This week our roving reporter pounded the pavement to find the perkiest pinks. Where did your pink come from and how much did it cost? How does pink make you feel? And, if your pink had a personality, would it be cherry blossom, piggy, or Hello Kitty?

My T-shirt came from North Shore, Hawaii, and my "pon-pon" came from a convenience store in Shibuya. How does pink make me feel? HOT! My pink is bouncy - like me!

Condomania sells my pink thing, and it's JY180. I feel absolutely succulent in pink. What's my pink's personality? Hello Pig Blossom.
