Hi again!

So I was pretty stoked on the Kusama second launch, as some of you may know. But sadly for me, I didn't receive the yellow dotted tissue and ribbon on any of my purchases. When I asked about getting some after the fact, I was told it is not available in Holland.

So I went to France this past weekend, bought something else (another story) and was informed that "it was decided not to produce the yellow wrapping for the collection." I explained that I've seen it, and the SA looked genuinely shocked. She had also heard it was supposed to be beautiful. But she said that it had not been distributed in France, and she feared the rest of Europe wouldn't get it either.

So now I'm wondering if the only people who got it are US tPFers or if there are also Europeans amongst you. Let me know, because I'm desperately trying to get my hands on some and don't know where to look anymore. After coughing up a few grand, you'd think some ribbon would be a piece of cake to toss in there. Sigh.

Thanks!

Did you get any ribbon at all on your packages? The yellow ribbon is so pretty. I was a little bummed when mine was wrapped in the white and red dot tissue and ribbon. The yellow ribbon pattern looks so much more Kusama. Oh well! Did you find the agenda you were looking for?

Sorry, I have been "very behind" the forums and times. Will there be a second launch? What items will be there? The Kusama is growing on me!

I could only get white, which was kind of a bummer. I think it's beautiful but preferred the green for sure. I had to lecture my
Mom about how she can't just throw her keys in her purse with it. And I completely banned her from carrying any kind of writing utensil in her bag unless it is in a separate zippered compartment. Welcome to LV, mom! Haha!

OK, I feel better knowing I'm not the only one. Though it's true that getting our hands on some packaging should not be an issue with the amount we spend. I mean I got two bags and a total of four SLGs! I want some ribbon! Haha :biggrin:

Thanks for offers to share, ladies! That's true LV love.
