Hello Kitty tattoos have this gentle, nostalgic pull, don't they? I love how something so sweet can also be wild, clever, or totally nostalgic — like a tiny emblem of your inner kid, or a bold reminder that you get to be whoever you want. I wanted to pull together these adorable takes on Hello Kitty because they each feel like a little story — some playful, some dramatic, some pure comfort. Take a look and tell me which one makes you smile the hardest.
