I just had the disconcerting but wonderful experience of showing my FSH SA a pic of the rainbow bolide (pic from @allanrvj) and her coming up with bag boxes a few minutes later. I have to say that pics do not do this bag justice

I'm a bolide girl, and this is just fabulous! For me, this version is all about the cw, and this is soooo good! Many congrats, and have lots of fun in Paris!
 
congrats! wow. it's still in stores. could you share how much it's going for right now?
Thanks! 9200 EU on the receipt printed for detax, so more expensive than the 25B or a regular bolide
I don’t know how many were made, but I would imagine it’s an acquired taste, but I’m thrilled as I never thought
I would be able to see one IRL, much less have the opportunity to purchase. It is listed as bolide 1923 rainbow

ETA: @allanrvj, this is the price at FSH. In the US or another location outside the EU, I imagine it would be higher

oh you're in Europe right now? have fun! congrats again on scoring a rare and such a beautiful Bolide

color me jealous :love:
 
Beautiful! Which size bag is it? 25?
Thank uou. I believe that the sunrise, sunset, and this one, the rainbow, are all 1923 size 30. (Bolides are I think 31) As far as I know, the limited or decorated bags are in the sizes larger than 25. In fact, I was very grateful that this was not size 35.

Congrats! I am such a huge fan of the Bolide 1923 (more so than Bolide) and I'm so glad you were able to get your dream bag! It looks so good on you!

This is a great versatile variation. With what you're wearing it looks cool, minimalist and conceptual but I bet it could go full on Madame Chic in Paris too.

A very special, forever piece for the Bolide centenary.

Great teamwork @allanrvj !!!!
