Hello Kitty Thermometer

Caught the train to Uni the other day and when I got off at the city station, the small Asian gift/souvenir store had a sign reading 'CLOSING DOWN SALE: 50% OFF EVERYTHING'.

I've been meaning to check it out for a loooong time but never got around to it until now (it's amazing what sales can do to you).

So, wandered in for a look and walked out with this:



Notice the $2 pricetag? It was only a dollar, yay for bargains!

And yes, I do realise it's "fake" Hello Kitty, but hey, what do you expect for a dollar?

The box also says 'funny lamp'. The whole thing works as a night-light if you insert 4 batteries into the back, which I haven't done because I already have a Hello Kitty night-light.

However, it does accurately tell the temperature (it's 21 degrees Celcius in my room now).

Random impulse cheap bargain buy for the day :)

Hello Kitty Shower Cap

Received an item from Hong Kong in the mail the other day:

0.99USD ($1.50AUD)

Yes, a Hello Kitty shower cap.

I haven't actually used a shower cap in years, I just clip my hair up. But that habit can be easily broken. The ears stick up when you put it on. It's actually a lot better quality than expected for what I paid for it, the material is fairly thick.

Ooh, another thing to add to my collection :)

Update - still hunting for MAC

The Hello Kitty toy I received from my boyfriend for Valentine's Day =D

It's been a while since I posted on here so it's time for a little update.


THE HUNT FOR MAC GOODIES

In a previous blog I mentioned the MAC x Hello Kitty collection. Well surprise surprise .. I found it in stores!


I don't know why it took me so long to find out we had it, when you enter Myer the sign is right in front! But I don't shop much in the city anymore.

I googled over the collection for a good 10 minutes then finally went to ask the sales assistant about the lip conditioner. I had ordered some from eBay a few days prior for $28US (around $42AUD). She said it was $35 but it was SOLD OUT! I asked if they were getting any more, dumb question because it's a limited edition collection.

I tested the eyeshadow and it's so .. SMOOTH! I only put a little bit on and it covered my whole eyelid in this soft, smooth shade of green *faints*

Anyways, I went to another department store, David Jones, yesterday and found out they also sold the Hello Kitty collection (they didn't when I checked a few weeks back). On some of the tester items there were stickers that said 'SOLD OUT' and unfortunately it was on the 'Pink Fish' lip conditioner I wanted. ARGH! There's two colours, Pink Fish - it's a light pink - and Popster, a sort of flamingo red. One of the pressed powders was also sold out. I doubt if I brought that I'd ever use it because of the Hello Kitty face engraved into the powder. I wouldn't ever touch that.


I guess I'll have to resort to paying for the item I won on eBay. I'm kinda waiting for the USD/AUD exchage rate to improve, currently $1AU buys 70US cents .. sigh.

Hello Kitty Happy Meal

There's nothing better than rocking up to your local McDonald's on the evening of a public holiday to discover the new Happy Meal toys in store for this month ..

Hello Kitty watch

The public holiday was on Monday. It's currently Wednesday and as you can see, I've been to McDonald's every day for the past three days to acquire these watches - 'Down with Brown' and 'Purple Fairy'. I still have to collect the pink and the red I think.

Yes, they are fully functional and yes, I would wear them in public (perhaps not the brown though). I think they're cute :)

I'm pretty sure you can guess what I'll be ordering from Macca's for the next month.

Hello Kitty x MAC Bag

Kick-starting this blog with a little something I received today in the mail:

Hello Kitty x MAC shopper bag
Location: USA
Price: roughly $37AU
Ordered from eBay.

To be honest, I'm kind of disappointed. The material is very thin and paper-like, I was expecting something a bit thicker and thought it was maybe a canvas-like material lined with plastic. I feel kind of ripped off, spending almost $40 on this.

I purchased it too soon, when I heard of the limited edition MAC collection I immediately jumped onto eBay and got the bag. It's going for around $25AU on eBay now. Sigh.

I doubt I can find much use for it, it's not very strong so there goes the uni bag idea.

Makes me want to get back on eBay and purchase a more worthwhile item (perhaps the 22-piece MAC x Hello Kitty cosmetic set that went for $900+AU?).

Then again, I'm always trying to acquire items that no one else has. I doubt many people in Adelaide would have this bag. I mean I won't take it out, but yeah.

Anyway, while surfing Kitty Hell, I came across this MAC x Hello Kitty Collection advertisement. Enjoy.

Welcome

Welcome to Kittyfied @ Blogspot. :)


Why did I create this blog?
Basically, to share an over-the-top love for all things Hello Kitty. I'll be posting photos of things I own, things I want and random Hello Kitty finds (believe me, there's a lot).

I had to make a whole blog dedicated to this because there's just too much to share and I didn't want to clutter up my Xanga.


Sit tight, I'll type up a blog about my Hello Kitty obsession soon.


In the mean time ..

Check out my Xanga, I'll probably move some of the similar Hello Kitty posts from there to here.


(Notice how 'Hello Kitty' is often tagged in my Xanga blogs?) ;)
