I use a compact Chanel wallet and love it. I carried a big wallet for a long time but realized I really didn't want to anymore. It's an adjustment carrying less, but it works of me now. Sorry for the sucky iPhone pic.
Woww, the Chanel is gorgeous. So classy and simple, not covered in logos too! ;) Do you know any preowned websites/shops that one can find one of these that are similar? I like the camellia-imprinted small wallet too.
 
i love the chanel compact. does yours have the outside pocket? beautiful wallet-

Thank you! I love it. It has a card pocket inside which I keep about 5-6 cards in and then the main part which I keep my cash/change in. I've really simplified what I carry. I used to have a wallet FULL of all kinds of things. I keep some random cards in my purse organizer but the essentials (main credit card, atm card, ID, insurance) are in my wallet.

Thank you. I love the simplicity of it too. I'm not a big logo person. I have not been shopping for Chanel in a while (they've priced me out) but I would look on eBay, Bonanza or Vestaire.
 
another vote for LV zcp! I'm usually not a patent girl, but my rose shock vernis has been holding up surprisingly well. If I need to slim down even more, I'll go to my trusty coach card case for DL, few credit cards and tuck in some cash in the center pocket. Hermes calvi is another good choice if you don't deal with coins.
 
I have been searching for a perfect compact wallet for the last year because when I travel, I usually carry very small, low key and inexpensive crossbody bags (mbmj karlie, barbara rihl travel, nat & Nin dita, etc) and needed a compact wallet that would fit in these bags.

I wanted it to be bifold so it has a have a dedicated section for bills but also a zipped coin holder without being too bulky, and of course a few slots for cards. And it had to be leather.

I never really paid any attention to fossil before but because I had been so desperate after looking for so long and tried out a few options that were all too bulky, I started to walk into any store that sold any leather items and that's when I found the perfect one: Fossil Sydney bi-fold. I even got it on sale for 40 percent off.

I have it next to a transit card from Melbourne and an oyster card inside to show size.
