Ok so I have been absent from this forum for a while.. But will never forget that tpf helped me in making my first FSH trip a great success and such a pleasant experience. And subsequent trips after that..

Last week I made the annual FSH visit again, and this time I wanted something a bit special. I wanted an ostrich B30. I tend to be Team K rather than Team B, but in my mind ostrich is perfect in B because you can see more hardware. And I’m partial to ghw.

So I emailed my H fairy ahead of time to secure an appointment. On the designated day, FSH was like a mad place and my fairy ended up running very very late for our appointment and I didn’t get to see her till 14 mins before closing time. She felt so bad and was very apologetic. I wanted more time to chit chat, catch up, look at other stuff etc, but no time for all that obviously.

Once I told her what I wanted, she immediately showed me RP B30 ostrich phw which was on display just next to where we were sitting. She asked me if it was ok. Hmmm.. I tend to go for neutrals so that I wouldn’t have to think too hard in matching my outfit. I told her I wasn’t sure about the colour (pretty but may not work with most of my wardrobe).

She went downstairs to look for more.. I was preparing to go for my second option which is a K28 sellier in epsom, thinking that maybe timing wasn’t right to get an ostrich.

5 minutes before closing, she reappeared and asked me to move to a different corner of the store where a big box was waiting. She said she had found something very pretty which was even nicer my what I had initially asked her (bleu de malte ostrich ghw), and very rare. It was a bleu saphir B30 ghw!!! The saturation was unbelievable. It was definitely love at first sight. She said it’s so rare that it’s the first time she had ever seen bleu saphir in an ostrich.

So here it is.. The gem of my current collection

PS: Am totally in love with this bag but my pink lover friend (who knew that I also love pinks), kept asking how could I said no to rose pourpre ostrich!! My local SA confirmed that bleu saphir ostrich is rare indeed, so I believe I made the right choice.. Do you agree, dear ladies??

Your bag is incredible !

Omg that bag is so incredibly gorgeous! [emoji170][emoji170][emoji170]. Congratulations! I do love rose pourpre but I would have also picked the bleu sapphire for an ostrich bag as well.

I looovveee it. I'm so glad you got this. I don't own any birdie bags so I can't offer opinions on what is more rare or not, but it sounds like you went with the color that made your heart beat faster, which is always the right choice. Congratulations!

It’s the most beautiful blue ostrich bag I’ve ever seen. I usually saw darker blue shades, but this is stunning, royal but happy. Congratulations!

It must be raining ostriches in Paris as I just picked up this lovely sellier k28 in tangerine yesterday. Sad that I didn’t manage to catch up with my SA but glad she kept this aside for me.
Thanks for letting me share and have a good weekend everyone!

WOW, gorgeous!
I have something tangerine ostrich in mind for a major birthday coming up soon (thinking a sellier kelly like yours or a bolide).
