Chateau Marmont, Los Angeles, CA in a Weekend - 2 Bedroom Apartment

As you can see from my travels I love The Chateau Marmont, LA vibe. Such a mixture of bohemian and shabby shiek. Its utterly amazing!

This is where James Dean jumped through a window to audition with Natalie Wood. Where Elizabeth Taylor brought Montgomery Clift to recover after his car accident. Where Betty Davis lived. Where Clarke Gable use to meet up with his secret starlet affairs. Where John Belushi OD'd. Where members of Led Zeppelin rode their bikes through the lobby for goodness sakes, in other words, SCANDAL city! Everyone you can imagine has partied, eaten, lived and even died here

My last review was on the Premier Garden Cottage, this one, a 2 Bedroom Apartment

Upon arrival, we head straight for the Terrace, YEAH!!!!! Your star gazing powers go into override. This visit alone we partied in the presence of Lindsey Lohan, Nicole Ritchie and the Madden twins, Ryan Reynolds, Denzel Washington .... just to name a few, the list goes on

Check out our digs, lovely

Their so personable, always remember return guests with little notes! call me crazy but it really is the little things

Once we unpack we head to the pool for some more drinky poos, get my theme here

Yeah we're goof balls, wearing matching bathing suits, LOL!!!!

Their new resident kitty, I was so pissed off, someone stole the other one they had, what kind of freak steals a cat! Especially one that has a great home. I even wrote to TMZ to try to get them to cover the story hoping someone knew someone who knew who stole it and could bring it back. They didn't and the poor cat was never found

We meet the most interesting people by the pool. This fellow had the funniest tattoo. It's his morgue foot tag. He said he wanted to give them a laugh when he's brought in. Ya think?

Afterwards we did our usual shop till you drop on Hollywood Blvd and a visit to Graumans Chinese Theater. I always have to put my hands into Marilyn Monroe in cement, the fit is perfect

Then off to the Roosevelt Hotel for some nighttime fun

Marilyn lived here on and off. She did her very first print add by this pool

Next day; mornings always start here, the terrace for breakfast

Then off to Universal Studios. Never, Ever go without front of the line or VIP passes .... do you hear me NEVER

War of the Worlds

That night, off to have the best meals ever, my mouth waters just thinking of the food in the Polo Lounge at the Beverly Hills Hotel. This time we sat out on the terrace. OMG!!!! I just love terraces, there always overgrown and have a jungle like feel

No trip is ever complete without a stop to the shopping district and Santee Alley. Faux everything you can think of. Its quite a maze system and very 3rd world. My favorite entrance is at 12th and Maple

I can't say enough about my weekenders away in LA, ssssoooooo much fun!

We always leave at night so we can squeeze as much in as possible

Our last day ... lets just say it, we look like shit. I say, if you have too, there is no place i'd rather. We've shopped, eaten and partied like maniacs. We decided to stroll around Beverly Hills and Sunset and look for somewhere to eat

I told the cab driver to just let us out and recognized he dropped us at Doheny. The street Marilyn lived on. We took a stroll and alas, found her old residence
