The name “Love McKitty” came from “戀愛麥語” the slogan from McDonald’s advertisement. The term, “戀愛” means “to be in love” and “麥” means “Mc- in Chinese” and “語” means “language.” If you put it all together you get “love, mc, language,”  a better translation is probably, “Love McKitty!” Special thanks to Helena for this awesome collection <3

I love this collection! It’s so cute..I can’t pick out my favorite set! If I really had to choose, I guess I will have to choose the Hello Kitty and Dear Daniel in School Uniform. I really like that fact the Hello Kitty can attend school with Dear Daniel :D Which one is your favorite?
