Cross posted from the “Paris trip for H.”

Just returned from 10 days in Paris. I’ve been following the “Paris trip for H” forum for years and had convinced myself that a trip to Paris would not be complete without a B/K. My daughter and I applied daily for the first 5 days all rejected by 8pm ish. I found it interesting though that I was wasn’t particularly concerned about it and didn’t allow it to emotionally affect my trip. We’d already been to Cartier a nd had an amazing experience there and then we had an unbelievable private experience at LV Champs-Elysees which my LV NYC SA had scheduled for us. After that, I really didn’t care about trying to make my H dreams come true, we didn’t even go to any of the stores (even though our hotel was only a few blocks from FSH). We had a WONDERFUL trip.
Upon leaving at CDG we had about 30 minutes to shop in the Duty Free and H was next to the Air France lounge. I popped in and asked for black orans (box leather), yep….then black loafer mules (in chèvre), yep, then Evelyne 29 (they had black and etoupe ghw, I chose etoupe), and a twilly. I was done in 10 minutes and had the loveliest SA who appreciated my knowledge of the brand (all gained from tPF) and that I knew exactly what I wanted!
I have several beautiful pre-loved quota bags (2 B35s, 2 K35s) that I’ve purchased on the resale market, that I adore. Personally, I am thrilled that I learned I didn’t need to “fight the H system” to be happy with my Paris trip.
Thank you for letting me share and good luck to those who are “playing the H Paris lottery.”

Absolutely, disappointments can occur as well, even if you score the appointment! So glad I was able to let the whole thing go and just enjoy Paris….and ultimately “won” some H anyway!
