Something for spring … my Valentine’s Day Gift for Mrs. P

It’s been a very cold winter and this touch of spring may be just what the doctor ordered…and appropriately Apple is her name! Perfect color to complete her Birkin rainbow desires!
Millstream’s chartreuse was just beautiful but apparently very difficult to obtain, according to our SA. We’ve never ever seen one IRL actually. The Petpringles family turned down a Vert Anis offered to us just post holiday season. But because of holiday vacation over expenditure (always happens), it was the right decision to make at that time….however I know Mrs. P did not like that decision…I wasn’t about to commit the same mistake twice by turning it down again. Thanks to my lobotomy...reasoning kicked in! OUCH!

Do you this wallet makes it look too fruity she asked!

Yeah...Lemon and Lime I said! Very "citrusy"...Carmen Miranda-ish... She doesn't care...she's ready for Maui she claims!

Thanks dou.dou!



So when I got a call from the H boutique, I swooped in like a hungry vulture. Sorry it’s not vert chartreuse but green enough for sure! It wasn’t a hard compromise at all as she’s really always admired vert anis from a far. She was ready to pounce on a 32 Vert Anis Kelly while in Costa del Sol last summer so I know it would like this one! I drove through the snow to the next state to catch her Hermes bag.

Meet Apple…Mrs. P’s latest. 35 cm Birkin with PHW in Togo leather…something to hold her through until arrival of her Fuchsia Birkin whenever that is and we are not holding out breaths for that one!

Anyway, while at a boring board room meeting, my blackberry rings…I stepped outside to answer as I know it was H boutique calling (ID caller…love it!). “I have wonderful news for you…!” I answered “I’ll take it!” without hesitation. This is the first Birkin we got from that H boutique store…perhaps a new supplier to the PP family?

Looking back, it’s funny how Mrs. P just wanted to have one, just one Birkin!
That was about a little over a year ago! YIKES! What she doesn’t know is that there is only one more Birkin for this year’s budget! Ha-ha…Please no one tell her!
