as seen on Sanriotown, got to love the pinkness of it! The most pink car you’ll ever see!

It’s for real, for those of you who don’t know Samanda they are famous pop musicians with the famous ditzy track "I’m a Barbie Girl" which you may already know if you click the song, I did not know they were called Samanda (who are real twins!), they are now blogging on Sanriotown, way cool! Now if they could only tell us the Blog URL?!

A quick search reveals this this video link as below as to their possible residence site, but not sure.

To see the actual Barbie Girl Video, this is what I see on YouTube, you’ll know the song.

Very cute video of a Hello Kitty mobile phone, the design of the model looks a few years old but it’s still ultra-cute!

Actually, not so secret, I’m not sure what she is doing exactly but it looks cutesly suspiously (and that is intentional wrong spelling there)

Courtesy of DeviantArt once again, these folks have some fantastic pictures there that are rich in new ideas and style.

Work is also ongoing on the game’s first expansion pack, to be titled “Island Adventure” and scheduled for release in 2009.

Island Adventure will be the first expansion pack in gaming history that will reduce rather than expand an existing game world. The premise is the crash-landing (without casualties) on a mysterious island in the South Pacific of Hello Kitty Air flight 337, which had been carrying Hello Kitty and friends to the 5^th Cuteness World Symposium in Perth, Australia.

Our heroes – including Hello Kitty, Dear Daniel, Keroppi, Badtz-Maru and many others – find themselves marooned on the nameless island along with a couple hundred fellow passengers, whose roles will be filled by end-users. Soon the survivors discover that the island is inhabited by a community of squat, foul-mouthed, inferiorly-animated characters whose only intention is to send the newcomers packing by any means possible.

I smell an April Fools Joke

Talk about a daring sense of fashion, I don’t think this one is available in stores, but it’s interesting!

Apparently just recently Hello Kitty for Men got attention by the likes of boingboing which I blogged about in October already. Even CBS saw fit to write about this story.

Well here are a few more pictures for those who wish to see some more Hello Kitty Fashion for Men which are not posted by the AP as far as I can tell.

The above I posted before I think but the below is quite something!

And below you have some Hello Kitty Men Goth wear and other different styles, like the caps!

A set of pearls once belonging to Marie Antoinette and taken to Britain by a friend for safekeeping will go on sale in December, and are expected to fetch up to $800,000.

Now part of a diamond, ruby and pearl necklace, France’s last queen gave a bag of pearls and diamonds to Lady Sutherland, the British ambassador’s wife, before she fled revolutionary France in 1792, a year before Marie Antoinette’s death.

"Lady Sutherland was wife of the ambassador and friends with the queen, and they had children of the same age," said Raymond Sancroft-Baker, senior director of Christie’s jewelry in London.

"When you are in a dire situation, there are not many people you can trust and the key was to give the jewels to someone with diplomatic immunity," he told Reuters.

Marie Antoinette, legendary for her extravagance, did not know her fate at the time, he said, and would have hoped to be reunited with her treasures one day.

"Hope springs eternal," added Sancroft-Baker.

According to Christie’s, Sutherland arranged for clothes and linen to be sent to the queen while she was in prison.

"This was reportedly the last gesture of kindness shown to the doomed queen," the auctioneer said in a statement.

Marie Antoinette was executed by guillotine in October 1793.

The diamonds were made into a necklace, while the pearls were mounted later for the occasion of the marriage of Sutherland’s grandson in 1849.

Christie’s did not specify which of Sutherland’s descendants was selling the necklace.

"The owner said it just sits in the bank the whole time, and there comes a time for everything," Sancroft-Baker said.

He hoped the pearls, which have never been offered at auction before and remained in the same family for over 200 years, would be made available for the public to see.

"The Louvre might be interested, for example," he said, adding that the story behind the necklace made it one of the most important sales he had overseen at Christie’s.

"It’s right up there in the top 10 we’ve ever sold, because its provenance is rock solid, as far as we can be aware. There are documents to go with it and contemporary supporting evidence."

The necklace will go under the hammer at the Magnificent Jewelry sale in London on December 12, and is expected to make between 350,000 and 400,000 pounds ($700-800,000).
