Miffy, the cutest bunny around (And an original creation)

Adore Fashions children's wear store, Granville Street, Vancouver, BC (Detail)

My daughter is rather fond of Miffy. It is one of her favourite books and we have read it over 500 times.

Adore Fashions is a store on South Granville in Vancouver and it sells very expensive children's clothing. So I was a bit surprised to see Miffy in the window as I would have expected the Sanrio rip-off Hello Kitty.

But Miffy it was. She is a very cute little bunny, and anyone who has ever seen Hello Kitty can see the debt that the little feline owes to Miffy's creator, Dick Bruna.

This Miffy is a lamp. Available in two sizes, it sells for $299 CDN or $350 CDN. Cute, but not $300 dollars cute.
