As I posted a few days ago, I just made my first designer bag purchase of a Holiday Patchwork Duffle and a black Carly. My problem is I really need a new wallet that will go with any purse. The wallet I have now is black leather and has served me well for years, but the zipper is starting to have problems, and it really is too big. It takes up way too much space in my Duffle.

So, I need a new wallet, and I can't really afford anything over, say $50 at this time. If I wait a bit, I could probably go as high as $100-125, for a really superior wallet. I looked at the Holiday Patchwork to go with the Duffle, but it cost nearly as much as the bag! Does anyone have any suggestions for a more economical wallet that would still go with either of my Coach bags?

Do you have a Coach outlet nearby? I know you can get some fabulous deals on wallets there.

I know some of the ladies were talking about using wristlets as wallets too - which would be in the 50-ish range.

Coach wallets cost almost as much as the handbags. They are usually around $200. At the outlets, you can find them for around $100. I don't think you'll find one for $50 anywhere except maybe on Ebay, and you should be really careful buying a wallet on there.

If you don't care if it's Coach, you can probably find a decent wallet for $50, though.

I have these 2 and love them, but if I were you, I'd get a red one or something that you could use with black or brown.
Coach - COACH SOHO SIGNATURE CHECKBOOK WALLET
Coach - COACH HAMPTONS SIGNATURE MULTI-FUNCTION WALLET

The second one I posted is only $100, though, and doesn't take up a lot of room.

Yeah their wallets really are too expensive I think. I buy wristlets and they serve me just fine!

But if you really need a wallet, try the outlets.

Well, i suggest going to the outlets to check out their prices first. I really like LV wallets and Coach wallets have worked well for me too. I would browse around online and the stores and see if anything catches your eye.

Thanks, everyone! I appreciate the input. I'm in Oklahoma, and the only outlets I know of are the 2 in Vegas that have been mentioned here. (I'm trying to talk a certain tPFer into accompanying me there this summer.) I might look at the wristlet's, though, since I hate to wait until then, or even worse, buy a cheap wallet to tide me over.

Ooh, thanks! Somehow I overlooked that!

Hmm... there's one in Branson. I had kind of hoped never to see Branson, but it might be worth the trip, since it is only a 3 hour drive.
