I found this Hello Kitty Bling Charm in the Sanrio.co.jp store; I’m not sure what it’s really called because the title is only rendered as [harokiteisuwarohusukiroketsutochiyamu]. I can tell “Swarovski” is in there, and as you can see from the pictures it’s a completely blinged-out charm. I don’t think I’ve ever seen [...]

Speaking of shredding, you don’t have to bring in a drab gray shredder to keep your documents safe at work - as with almost everything, there is a pink version available, and these have Hello Kitty too! The little one is meant for business cards and junk mail, and it’s operated by hand [...]

This Wacom product is only available in Japan. I can tell because in the United States, we only get boring graphics tablets. But in Japan, they offer “FAVO” - a graphics pad that “makes you feel free, fine, and fantastic.” It also makes me feel a little sick to my stomach. [...]

Okay, let’s put together a really bad outfit. I used to do this with the nice outfits that were in catalogs so I could see how much they really cost, but this is an all-pink version, so it’s guaranteed to be bad.

Oooooh, sparkly! Japanese company NEC has released a blinged-out Hello Kitty laptop with Swarovski crystals. (That link is through Google Translate, by the way, so it reads kind of funny but there are good pictures.) It’s actually got pretty decent specs, unlike the other Hello Kitty laptop I mentioned a month [...]

I love Tarina Tarantino’s products. If you browse through the jewelry section, there is pink everywhere! A lot of it is subtle but there are some standout pieces like this skull set. The bracelet will set you back $100, the earrings are $70, and the necklace is $325, but they’re cute! [...]

I’ve collected some interesting Hello Kitty items recently, so here’s a post to make sure all of them get mentioned. First up is the anti-static keychain from Brando. As near as I can tell, this thing is exclusively for discharging static from metal objects so you don’t get zapped. I actually [...]

Although the English/Japanese USB keyboard and the desktop wastebasket caught my eye, the Hello Kitty item that caught my eye on GizmoDiva lately was the six-cup coffee maker. It has all the features you could want in a coffee maker: water level gauges, a washable filter basket, and - well, whatever else you [...]

If you have $2,000 and you hurry, you might be able to grab the Hello Kitty Notebook and Nano package. It’s an Epson Endeavor NA101, which is a Japanese model with pretty much baseline figures - Windows XP, 512mb of RAM, 40gb hard drive, etc. It’s pretty small, just a 12″ screen, [...]

I’ll be honest, I don’t especially like these speakers. They are definitely adorable - you’d have two little Hello Kitty figurines sitting on your desktop - but they aren’t the best in terms of functionality. They are sold by Brando, and they want $48 for them! The speaker output itself is [...]
