Bonjour Kitty

24 January 2009 • Kimberly • Leave a Comment

This photo makes me ridiculously happy…

heart5  heart5  heart5

hello-kitty

heart5 Hello Kitty is in Paris! In Trocadero, to be specific.

heart5 It satisfies my childish obsession for the darling little kitten.

heart5 I am now reminiscing my trip last spring to Paris, wishing I can go back again.

 I love Tom Sachs.

 And now I really want this tee-shirt ($50, buy it here!) – two of my favorites (Hello Kitty + Obama!) all in one; how much better can it get? Some how this scrawled sketch makes me love it all the more; perhaps it’s the rawness of it that draws me in? It would be the perfect lazy Sunday/Monday outfit. Paired with a black, tailored vest, skinny jeans, & ankle booties. Perhaps with a slouchy-knit beret and pink lips. The only thing that’s holding me back is, once again, this little gnawing feeling that tells me to leave my wallet be. Spoil me? 😉

tom-sachs-tee-1

the fabulous front; bonjour kitty!

tom-sachs-tee-2

the back; yes we can! memorabilia.

    

Have a fabulous weekend!

xoxo,

La C.

P.S.: I wish to apologize ahead of time; I’ll be rather busy this weekend & the following week, so please bear with my shorter posts (although I am quite sure a great number of you may appreciate non-rambling-post week!). & fellow Hello Kitty lovers, I have yet another post in store for you! 🙂

    that shirt is really cool, and now i wish i was in paris to see the sculpture up close.

    Hilarious! My husband found this ersatz “Hello Kitty” product in chinatown a few years ago he had to buy. It was called “Greetings Kitten” and it was such a funny rip off. We still have it somewhere.
