Strawberry Newsletter March 2009 Issue

March 24th, 2009 by hellokittyjunkie

I got the March 2009 issue of Sanrio’s Strawberry Newsletter from Hélène when she sent me some very special Birthday Surprises (and oopsie — forgot to take photos before). The Little Twin Stars graced the cover and I got a cute little Hello Kitty mini spiral notepad! I love how Japanese magazines come with kawaii gifts! I rarely see magazines in the states sold with a cool little gift.

There was more than the usual amount of Little Twin Stars merch featured in this issue… Isn’t this the cutest tea set ever!?

Evisu x Hello Kitty denim and rainbow zippered golf bag! That is so surprising… Right!? Retail price is 147,000.00 JPY = 1,501.80 USD! That is one pricey caddy! o_O I did a quick search on eBay and guess how much it is going for? $1,372 USD w/ free shipping –I do not lie! So you would actually be getting a deal… o_O

Another collaboration — Pampered Girls x Hello Kitty — looks like a limited edtion collection (not sure though) and from what I can see, it’s only available in Japan… or eBay for a pretty penny!

Hello Kitty and friends Hina doll display! Kawaii, neh? My Mom told me she saw a Hello Kitty hina set for sale in the Mitsuwa advertisements… Maybe I should go check it out!? If it’s the same as the one pictured below, I will be thrilled! ^_^

I wonder what new products will be featured in the April 2009 issue of Strawberry Newsletter? Big Ribbon Kitty is on the cover and from what I was told, the design was inspired by Audrey Hepburn… What do you think about this series? ^_^
