tokidoki x Hello Kitty Items Hit eBay

Tuesday, January 29th, 2008

As many of you have already noticed, the first wave of tokidoki for Hello Kitty items have already started popping up on eBay. One of the sellers is on my Real tokidoki Sellers list, and the other is a Tokidoki Blog reader in Japan, so I am sure that they are the real thing. This should also mean that the collaboration will be released in the USA very soon - perhaps even sooner than we have been expecting.

Also, the Italian eBay seller who keeps listing European exclusive tokidoki clothing has a red tokidoki cammo hoodie for men and an open-backed LP record shirt for women listed. Italy gets some really cool designs!

Another European (Exclusive?) tokidoki Hoodie

This momo all-over print tokidoki hoodie just got listed on eBay by that Italian seller who also has the LP Record hoodies:

I think it’s really cute! I wonder if it is a preview for what is to come in the States, or if it will remain a European exclusive. I love the tokidoki all-over print hoodie designs - I hope there are many more to come.

Super-Rare tokidoki Bags from 2004

Thursday, January 17th, 2008

Reader Melanie sent in some photos of some rare European tokidoki bags that she has in her collection. Melanie says that she has been a fan of tokidoki designs since 2002(!) when she discovered a tokidoki shirt on threadless.com. Then she was in Amsterdam the winter of 2004 and spotted a silver tokidoki Sushi bag and had to have it. Check it out:

Isn’t it adorable?! I want one!

While in Amsterdam, Melanie also saw a pink tokidoki bag but didn’t get it, which she ended up regretting later. So once she was back in the USA, she searched for the pink bag online and found it on a German website listed as “Pink Gothic Lolita Bag.” In the summer of 2005, she finally found the pink tokidoki bags on eBay. Here is her whole family of rare bags:

Photo of a Reader’s European tokidoki Tote (Plus a Rare Signed T-Shirt)

Monday, January 7th, 2008

Reader Tara from Hawaii just sent me a photo of her European tokidoki tote bag - which she had signed by Simone at the Ala Moana Center Singing Party in Hawaii in November. The bag is definitely real, and Simone even commented to her on it being a rare item.

Tara also sent in a photo of a rare Spring 2005 tokidoki t-shirt that she had signed by Simone. I love the extra sushi character that he added!

Still More European tokidoki Gear Uncovered

Sunday, January 6th, 2008

Readers Lashonne and Jess discovered another Italian store that sells tokidoki items that are not available in the USA - and this shop does allow you to order online. Sadly though, the prices are pretty killer when you factor in the exchange rate. They sell another style of tokidoki underwear, the tokidoki flip-flops that I blogged about last spring, and more clothing items (including the all-over print hoodie from the post below!). Here are a few highlights:

tokidoki hoodie from Italy

tokidoki sweatshirt from Italy

tokidoki ski jacket from Italy

Lashonne also found this bag on an Italian site called Yoox:

I am wondering if it is the same style of tote bag that readers spotted Simone’s girlfriend carrying at the Simone signing party at Mobius last month.

More Italian tokidoki Goodies Discovered

Saturday, January 5th, 2008

Reader Jess somehow unearthed this slideshow by andrea.simpson, which features a bunch more tokidoki items that I am guessing are also exclusive to Italy (or Europe?) since the title is written in Italian. Check some of this stuff out - there are tokidoki JEANS! Plus a jacket and hoodie that I absolutely adore and wish I could get my hands on:

tokidoki jeans

I hope that some of these items eventually find their way to the USA!
