HELLO KITTY X GIRL SKATEBOARDS DECKS, WHEELS, MENS TEES!
May 18, 2010
The highly anticipated Hello Kitty x Girl Skateboard decks are here! This is the first time Sanrio has collaborated with a professional skateboarding team, so it's a super big deal...and Mike Carroll decided to make it his pro-model deck, (for those of you who don't know, I happen to be Mike Carroll's #1 Fan). Mike is on the left and Rick Howard, (also a fave of mine), is on the right.
The deck is red on the top and the pic on the right is the bottom of it, and it measures 8" x 31.62", the price of the deck is $59.99 if you purchase it in the store. If we are sending it to you, the price is $64.99 online to adjust for shipping charges.
Girl also made collectible wheels for this deck. They come in white (51mm), red (50mm), or blue (52mm). We will also have some complete skateboards for sale too, that includes trucks, hardware, wheels, bearings, and grip tape, for about $150, all put together and ready for you to ride. I will post when those are ready, just waiting for my friend to come and build some.
Finally!!! Men's Hello Kitty Tees!!! These come in Royal Blue, Black, or White, $20 each. The front has a small Hello Kitty Girl Logo, here is a close up of it.
Here is how the front of the tees look.
This is the back of the shirts in black...

HAPPY THANKSGIVING! N_N
Nov 27, 2009
I hope everyone had a very spectacular Thanksgiving filled with family, friends and lots of love! *in the form of yummy cooking* n_~ So many awesome things have happened to me this year that I had tons of things to be grateful for! One of the oh-so-many things I am grateful for is the new kawaii-ness at JapanLA! @_@
I am 100% positively sure that Simone can never do anything wrong… And his designs always prove that! Some of the new tokidoki hoodies are just too kawaii for words, but I will still try to describe… n_~
Women's Baked Fresh hoodie is $66.00 and features Adios and Ciao Ciao baking some fresh homemade cookies! This hoodie is delicious, no!? ;P
This soft fleece zip front women's All Star hoodie is $66.00 -- and the best part about it (in my opinion) is the back print! @_@ For some reason, it reminds me of "The Last Supper" but a waaaay more cute version, of course! n_n
Everything about this red women's Unicorno Diamante hoodie is über kawaii -- from the contrast stitching to the silver tokidoki logo embroidery on the sleeve to the print on the inside of the hood! Oh! Too much cuteness!!! This is available for $66.00 as well.
Women's Momobella short sleeve v-neck tee is $33.00… Love the asymmetrical design, the detail on the back and tag is even cute...
tokidoki also has some cuteness for the bambinos (little kids in Italian). n_n Here are a couple of boxed infant sets available at $54.00 each.
tokidoki also has some stylish bibs for the youngsters! Check out the Bambino Boys Super Morello 2 pack of bibs and Bambino Girl Milk 2 pack of bibs. Each 2 pack is $29.00.
Four new designs of the tokidoki pillow cases have arrived too: Camo, Sandy & Bastardino, Milk & Latte, and Mozzarella & Bulletto. Each pack is $29.95 and I believe there are 10 designs in total!
My *faves* are the tokidoki for Hello Kitty t-shirts!!! I first laid eyes on all three designs during Hello Kitty's Three Apples event over at Royal T. I already own the pink Donutella x Kitty one and I am in *L-O-V-E* <3 <3 <3 Three reasons: pink, kawiii, glitter, puffed sleeves, Hello Kitty (duh!), Donutella… Hmmm, I guess that was more than enough reasons! Each shirt is $38.00 and mine came with two cute tokidoki hair clips…
Kawaii Hello Kitty plushes straight from Japan! I have NEVER seen these anywhere else so it's safe to say that these are *exclusives.* They were released in 2009 and you can pick up one of these cuties (or all three) for $18.00 each.
Oh boy! There are so many new Loungefly items out right now -- and I am pretty sure we carry all of them! Here is simply a portion of what is available. n_n Coin purse and wallets ranging from $18.00 - $29.95. I truly adore all the details Loungefly puts into their products -- great choices in designs, patterns, textures, embroidery, appliques… And just overall quality!
Hello Kitty x Loungefly bubble bow tote bag is an awesome canvas bag with hot pink metallic applique and embroidery detail. I am still gushing over the tiny details -- like the inside pattern showing Kitty-chan's different facial expressions and the plastic tag! This tote can be yours for $52.00…
Cute Loungefly t-shirts for $24.00 each! Hug Me Bear, I Love Ice Cream and I Love Burger and Fries. n_n
The Hug Me Bear design also comes in the form of socks and it is $10.00...
Dark blue Crowded Teeth and yellow Gnomes with Butterfly t-shirts are available for $24.00… Kawaii, eh!? n_~
Hamburger coin bag measures about 5"x 4.5" and French Fries coin bag measures about 4" x 6" -- both are from Loungefly and are available for $16.95… Either of these coin purses go well with the I Love Burger and Fries shirt… But you must have figured that out before I even stated it right now. n_~
Just a small preview of some new things in-store! Happy Thanksgiving and happy shopping this weekend!
Meow! Maria
