Now you won’t get lost driving with Hello Kitty’s help!

Unfortunately this GPS only works in Taiwan for the moment and it will probably got lost if taken outside of Taiwan  : )

They might look like winter boots, but these are actually rain boots that you can wear in the summer when it rains!

It’s a good concept but I am afraid people might mistaken them as winter boots and think I am silly to wear winter boots in the summer!  hahaha

For the upcoming summer, Sanrio has came up with some nice shades for us:

Look at the details!

A Hello Kitty blink-blink!

Would be even cuter (but I guess less functional) if it comes in Pink!  hohoho

Hello Kitty has dressed up as almost any fruits, I have in my collection, watermelon, melons, orange, lemon, apples, peach … but, a banana???

I wonder how she squeeze her chubby body into it!

Came across some really cute things from kbo’s flickr album:

^ a watermelon shaped Hello Kitty kitchen sponge!

^ Hello Kitty ziploc bags (OMG!)

Request sent to my brother (who happened to be in Japan at the moment), hahahaha~

Do take a look at kbo’s Hello Kitty photostream when you get a chance - lots of cooooool stuff there!

Just like the one at Hello Kitty Sweets or Ki-La-Ra … I love love love love it!

Wouldn’t it be nice to have one sitting in my Hello Kitty room and have a seat while entertaining my guests?

Okay, it’s not a true Hello Kitty x Hermes item (if it is we probably won’t be able to to afford it anywayz!) but this new mohair made Hello Kitty plush is definitely dressed in “Hermes style”!

Not only she is wearing a diamond necklace, dressed in drssey clothes, she is also wearing a Hermes-like orange handbag with a built-in gold watch.

Hello Kitty is definitely getting more high-end!

Hello Kitty & Friends are currently on display in the Lever House Lobby and Plaza in New York from May 8 through September 6.

The bronze cast Tom Sachs creations include a 21 foot Wind-up Hello Kitty, 10-foot My Melody, a 9-foot Crying Miffy fountain, and a 7-foot Crying Hello Kitty fountain.

Their proportions do not really resemble the true Hello Kitty … but I guess it’s cute nonetheless!

Now Hello Kitty can help you to stay healthy!

With all of us living busy, it’s not always easy to find time to eat right, so a good multi-vitamin can help to make sure you get all the vitamins you might need.

The Hello Kitty vitamins come in chewable form or gummy form: 

Both are designed perfect for anyone of all ages - plus it comes in great fruit flavours!

This is so cute!!!! 

Pink! 

And a bow + ears on the hat … 

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww~~~

Hmm … some possible addition to my kitchen?

A tomoto shaped pot:

and a Hello Kitty thermo (pressure) pot:

Does food taste better when cooked with a Kitty pot? : D

Not sure about you but I absolutely luuuuuuuuuuuuv ice-cream, especially the Japanese varities - seasame, red beans, green tea … oh so delicious!

Came across this Taiwanese mom’s blog whose kids love Hello Kitty, and she ordered some really cute Hello Kitty Ice-cream from Eva Air’s online shop after hearing about it on the news.

Here is what it looks like on the official website … seems like nothing special huh:

Since I am still brestfedding, the easiest way to dress is to do multiple layers - usually what I wear is a BF tee with a hoodie, most of which are from Ki-La-Ra in Hong Kong featuring Hello Kitty : ) 

Now that summer’s almost here, I wanted to get a short sleeves hoodie so I won’t be sweating dressed in multiple layers.  Didn’t see anything at Ki-La-Ra that I liked while in Hong Kong, so I venture out to eBay.

 And I narrowed my search down to two potential styles:

The tokidoki x Hello Kitty:

or

The eared Hello Kitty hoodie:

The eared one seemed more colorful, but maybe not be so appropriate for my age?  (haha) 

And the details on the black one are very attractive:

Both are selling for over US$100- on eBay, which I find a little overpriced, so I am still debating which one to get … hmm, what’s your choice?

I think A.D.M.J. (Accessories De Mademoiselle) is probably the first luxury handbags line which used Hello Kitty on its designs with a hafty price tag of NT$235,800/252,600 (=US$7,800-8,300!) on its Kitty Lux by ADMJ collection.  

Following the super expensive collection for X’mas 07, a more “collector friendly” collection was released in January 2008, titled the Hello Kitty x A.D.M.J. bags, which comes in three style:  Cookie Bag, Milky Bag and Foldy Bag (as shown below):

Of all three bags, I liked the Cookie bag most, which is also the pricest of all three (fyi, the bags retails between NT$9,980 to NT$23,500 or US$300-800).  

But I think I won’t splurge on a luxury Hello Kitty bag just yet - unless, of course, Marc Jacobs decides to design a LV x Hello Kitty bag someday : )

WARNING:  Shown below is a scary fake of ‘Hello Kitty’, view at your own risk! : )

This!

Pictured above is Baby Miel, with her custom tonka made by her dad’s company.  How cute!

Miel’s dad also took some other very cute pictures for her at places you won’t expect:

^ sleeping besides an issue of The Economist released the week Baby Miel was born

^ Inside the cockpit of a 757!

A full-sized Hello Kitty carpet!

Would go so well in my Hello Kitty Room with my collection:

But it’s a little pricey (@US$159.99+shipping), and a little too big (94.5″ x 75″) … and summer’s here so I don’t really need a carpet.

Plus, it ain’t Pink!

Lemme think about it for a few more days before filing a request to YeungBaBa!  : )

Shueisha’s Ribon magazine has announced earlier last week that they will be launching a new manga called Hello Kitty Peace!! in its July issue which will go on sale on June 3.

Manga creator Anzu Momoyama will be creating the title with an eight-page, all-color installment in the issue.

Hello Kitty looks all grown-up on this preview image, wonder what will the manga be all about?

Saw this really cute Hello Kitty cellphone ad for SoftBank while browsing for anpanman videos on youtube for my son to watch:

Didn’t know Kitty will go so well with rock music! 

Enjoy : )
