Story first (hope that you're patient enough )...
Let's just say for the past 2 months (almost), I have this love-hate relationship with my Joey wallet. I was really in love with it when it first came into my life and I find it really functional but it's the main bill compartment that I couldn't put up with. To make that part of this story short, I had to let another "mommy" take care of her and so she was sold.
Today, my friend and I went to LV and checked out some wallets.
