I know I’m not the only grown adult out there that’s still in love with Hello Kitty. When I was a pre-teen, all you could find with Hello Kitty on it were cute little crayon sets and a few stickers and pencil. Now she’s everywhere! Here’s my list of the ten cutest Hello Kitty goodies, for the not-so-young, but still completely young-at-heart (like me!)…

What glamour puss doesn’t want a new handbag, especially a shiny black patent leather one featuring the original fashion diva herself? This roomy bag is embossed with little Hello Kitty face in a very subtle pattern, and features her bright pink signature bow… so cute… but also so grown-up!

I go through ear buds at an alarming rate. I just seem to break them constantly… but not these! They feature the classic Hello Kitty on the cord retractor, and tons of sparkle from rhinestones on the buds! They fit any iPod or iPhone (and all other MP3 player, for that matter)… I won’t be losing or breaking these!

Eee! This sis so cute! I love business card holders (I use them as wallets) and this one is the cutest one ever! It’s got the iconic Hello Kitty face all done in sparkly Swarovski crystals, including her sweet little red bow! It measures 3.75” by 2.25” by .5”, which is plenty of room for a sizeable stack of business cards or an ID and several charge or debit cards. I love it!
