Hello Kitty: Behind the Scenes

Did you ever go into Sanrio when you were a kid? I know I was a fan of Spotty Dotty & Keroppi, but I was never a fan of Hello Kitty. She was always pink and girly-and as a child that was that complete opposite of me. I was into sports, dirt, and playing hockey outside with the neighbor kids down the street.
Now I find myself, a 26 year old women OBSESSED with Hello Kitty, it is almost unnatural---I have been asked to get help; however, I do not think they make medication with Hello Kitty emblems on them yet-- so I went ahead and passed.
I mean--my 25th birthday was completely Hello Kitty Themed. I don't know what it is-but she is the most adorable thing that I have ever seen. Everytime I see anything that has Hello Kitty on it, I can't help but get a smile to my face.<------Cutest birthday I have ever had! (Myself and Diane, Feb 2010)

Who the HECK is Hello Kitty?
  •  Full name Kitty White [yes, you learn something new everyday]
  • Fictional character created by Sanrio
  • She LIVES in England--even though she was created in Japan
  • The character's first apperance was on a vinyl coin purse: introduced to Japan 1974 and USA 1976
  • Her trademark earned over $3billion dollars annually in sales outside Japan in 2003
  • Bright eyed and kind hearted girl
  • Has a twin sister named Mimmy [Mimmy wears her bow to the right and Hello Kitty wears hers to the left] ---maybe you have been getting Mimmy products all along?
Tarintino Tarintino Collection added Hello Kitty onto her line. [One of my favorite Hk Lines]This was a BOMB.COM day for me when I found out- I have a few Tarintino pieces myself and let me tell you that the quality is great! Her products really hold up to par! She takes fun child hood characters and twists them into a funky, bedazzled, fresh piece! It's brilliant!


Please see the following link if you are interested in purchasing one of her items from her collection: http://www.tarinatarantino.com/shop.

Tokidoki: No words can express the amount of L-O-V-E that I have for the Tokidoki Collection that Sanrio has added. Unicorns, Rainbows, diamonds, skulls, and HELLO Kitty all in one place! I am IN LOVE! Even though the Tokidoki it a bit pricey; I would have to say that the designs and quality are WELL worth it.



Peace-Love-and HELLO KITTY
