Pink Cadillac

You may or may not be familiar with the meaning of the pink Cadillac. Basically – if you see one, in all likelihood, its someone who has done very well selling MaryKay Cosmetics. Its a pretty cool idea – I’m not even sure if you can order one in pink if you’re not a MK rep.

In any case – most of the ones you see around are pretty standard Caddy models – they’re all variants on a 3 letter model name now – CTS, DTS, etc – but there’s one in my neighborhood what is a pink Cadillac XLR – which is probably, in my mind, one of the sexier vehicles that Cadillac ever made.

The vehicle in question lives on a fairly busy street near my home. Here’s what actually gave me the idea to write about this – since its on a busy street, they have a circle drive, and the ability to head nose-out into the street. Twice in the last week, I’ve seen this car pull out, and I’ve become fairly certain that the woman who drives this car is to MaryKay what Batman is to crime fighting.

Somewhere, someone shines a light in the sky in the shape of a lipstick or something – and she races to the rescue in her pink Cadillac to take care of the cosmetic emergency.
