Per usual, you can click on the images to view them larger. I do my best to provide you with high-quality pen porn. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I first discovered the Shooting Star through an Instagram Post<\/a> from Luxury Brands of America<\/a>. While I’m supposed to be on a fountain pen low buy, I just had to get one. I’m planning to collect the Talisman series pens that have shaped confetti \u2014 like the Wild Rose<\/a> \u2014 since I’m no longer buying TWSBI pens<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I honestly can’t say what I like best about the Shooting Star. To start, it has meteorite dust in the material. While I can’t “show” you that, it’s pretty cool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Benu<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The amount of shimmer in the royal blue center areas and section is captivating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The star shaped confetti\/glitter simply makes me smile. And I love the distribution on mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The glow-in-the-dark ends \u2014 while not something I’ll likely see often \u2014 are very cool. And I appreciate that the “glow” is the same color as the actual material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Shooting Star came with a leaflet, standard Benu box and a sticker and pin in support of Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of writing, the Shooting Star is still available at Goldspot<\/a>, and I highly suggest getting one. Unless you dislike blue or sparkly pens, I doubt you’ll be disappointed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you for reading until the end. Do you own a Shooting Star? Do you want one? Let me know in the comments! I’d love to hear from you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
