I will leave this reminder as a sticky because tthis is often a thread that new members (or new Hermès lovers) post on - hopefully temporarily.
 
Hi everyone. I was in Paris last week and told myself I would probably not go to FSH as I did not feel like lining up 2 hours before the stores are opening, without even being secured an appointment for that day. Anyway, I decided to go in later that day as our hotel was nearby, just to have a look at some bracelets and scarves. I thought, while I was there, why not. So when I asked if there was still an appointment available, she told me that I was very lucky as there was someone available for me right away. I told the SA what I was looking for, but honestly did not expect anything out of it. When she came back, she told me to follow her and I was still a bit in shock. She told me she had exactly what I was looking for and I just could not believe it. Here she is, my new Birkin in 30 Gold PHW Togo

Perfection and so amazing when it happens like that.
 
I thought it was different too. I was just there (FSH only) and noticed every single chair was taken up by someone. In the shoes area for example there were several people sitting around and initially I thought they were waiting for SAs but they werent. While I was looking at the shoes they were all staring at me, I guess because they had nothing else to do. Then I went over to the ready to wear and same thing, people sitting around.

My bag trip was unsuccessful, but that was okay, I only tried a couple of times and I had a dream experience last time.
How many times did you try?
 
Thank you for sharing the picture and story. Congrats. That is a beautiful color. I wouldnt have asked for that one either because I dont usually think of blue for me personally but It's on my list now for sure. I love it with the gold hardware.

Thank you, HavLab! It really is a perfect neutral and can be worn with anything. So versatile! I'm so happy my SA brought it to my attention [emoji173]️
 
I was at Rue de Sevres yesterday (the day after the bank holiday) and the line wasn't that long but the waiting time was almost forever because there was only one or two SA and during lunch hours, there was none. sadly, I had something to do so had to leave after 3 hours of waiting (no kidding) . T_T

The store itself was beautiful though...

Yes, line itself is not that long, but it doesn't move. sorry that you waisted your time [emoji21]
 
Was at FSH today and took home this eye candy

It seemed like they had a good delivery today and more of the Seasonal colors i.e Blue Agate and Cuivre for B/K

Goodluck to you alll ❤️

Lovely! You were smart to go after the bank holiday. They told me on Monday to come back on Wednesday but I was already leaving.

Congratulations! Beautiful B! The best part about this story is the lack of stress caused by obtaining your bag! :smile:
