celebrate hello kitty's 50th anniversary with these super-cute items
Happy birthday Hello Kitty! You don't look a day over 49.
According to Sanrio's official website, Hello Kitty (AKA Kitty White) has a twin sister named Mimi, is approximately five apples tall and wants to become a poet or pianist when she 'grows up'. In our more boring reality though, Hello Kitty was first created by Japanese designer Yuko Shimizu back in 1974 – making her half a century old!
To celebrate this momentous occasion, we've plucked a handful of adorable wares from all corners of the web that honour Miss White, which you can take a gander down below.
