I actually got this present two months ago during Valentines Day, but I haven't had the time (nor the courage) to put up a post on it.
I figured since I had a few days off from work and was bumming around, I should try to attempt this reveal thingey.
Fell in love with Hermes four months back and I've been downloading all the pictures from TPF of possible shapes sizes and leather type of the bag in the world. Unfortunately, the location I'm at, there're not many of what I was particularly looking for. I had in mind the very color, narrowed down the leather types I wanted and had decided on the one size.
Basically it was that bag, or none.
Everyday I would find a few more pictures and share them with DH under the email title "It's raining Hermes".. I guess he finally got the hint (or was sick of getting his work email bombarded) .
For Valentines Day, I got my very own.
This bag is really special because DH managed to locate it for me within the span of 2 weeks (just in time for V day). He had to rope in his fashion contacts in Paris for this special favor- to find the bag I wanted.
Bag was found in an inconspicuous part of France, the right colour, shape, size and leather; paid, signed and urgently shipped to my location... all that, just in time for Valentines Day
