This Bev Hills babe flew solo last weekend.

With passport in hand and unaccompanied by my darling daughter, I braved the land of plastic surgery, kale salad without dressing and Cartier Love bracelets…alone.

Who would protect me against the Entitlementors?!

I was terrified so I went and had an amazing hair treatment with colorist/extention guru, Japanese straightening and Keratin expert, Logan, at the brand new Salon Kazumi in Bev Hills.

Logan can banish the curl and frizz, turning you into a straight hair goddess, fully qualified to walk the golden runway of Bev Hills without fear of exclusion.

Refreshed and straightened out, I sashayed out of the salon and decided to scope out Saks Fifth Avenue, Barneys and Neiman Marcus with my credit card burning a hole in my Burberry raincoat.

Not only was I shopping alone, but it was raining in Southern California.

How would I survive, but I must!

The stores were packed due to inclement weather.

I fondled Louboutins, Valentinos and Manolos.

I checked out the bag section and drooled over Proenza, Alaia, Gucci, Chanel and Mui Mui.

I had a heart to heart with a debonair Brazilian jeweler who was having a trunk show at Saks.

I fell head over heels for a diamond and gold cuff bracelet, but I had to reject him when I saw the $14,000 price tag.

I can only rationalize so much.

While in Barneys, I decided to do a drive by at Freds at Barneys where the delightful Ray Barnhart keeps the place running like a well oiled machine.

It was 2:30pm so I decided to spring for lunch and hung out at the bar, ordering a delicious yet pricey Asian Chicken salad for $26.

The restaurant was teeming with familiar looking TV personalities.

I met a charming casting agent who had just purchased a bikini before indulging in a Turkey Burger with Fries…she even ate a few.

Ah, to be thirty-something, bikini ready and fully employed. I remember those days.

I hit up Neiman’s which was also packed and decided to head home. When I spotted a Kardashian, I ran.

My passport had expired and I had a date with destiny (my husband David) who was killing himself at a 3 hour Krav Maga class…and I thought Bev Hills was dangerous.
