Helloooo all

Im so done on the handbag front for now - got all I would just about need so I am opting to spend my money on SLGs..

I have a LV wallet among other brands but I find my wallet to be bulky and it screams LV lol

Now... my burning question, Sooooo would it be wise for me to purchase a key pouch?? I could double this up as a small purse, I dont carry all that much when I am just nipping out running about so i figure maybe this would be of use to me???

Do you guys get much use outta yours???

I am looking at the vernis rose litchi one atm - and wow I love it....

So id be most grateful if you could share yoyr thoughts..

Many Thanks

Well we don't need a Cles but they are very handy to have lol. I have four and switch them depending on my bag print as it is my most used piece that I carry daily. They also fit nicely inside your smaller bags where you do not carry a wallet for your ID and some cards. I really do find it a very handy piece to have and also addictive once you get one. Any print or material cles would be fabulous!

I think it could serve a purpose - since I just take the odd few bits out with me on a daily basis.

Thanks for your help!

I think you would get a lot of use out of it. I have 5, I will say that I reach for my vernis the least. It doesn't fit as much as the rest. I love my MC and my Empreinte. The Empreinte is truly like a small wallet.

Ahhhh I was thinking rose litchi - are they smaller than say the DE ??? Or is it because the canvas is more stretchy??

Not smaller but they don't fit a lot due to the vernis not having as much give. They get distorted easier than the others when full. I still love my Pomme though. You should get the one you love.... I just wanted to give you a heads up not discourage you! Can you try it in store? That's always the best way.

I have a DE cles and love it! I find it to be handy to put into smaller bags without having the bulk of a wallet. It's also great as a grab and go item. I hope you get one!

yes you need one! LOL!!! I use one every single day. I have only canvas but have ordered the rose litchi and am waiting for it. I do use it as a wallet when not carrying mine. I know vernis will distort if I stuff it but I plan on putting cards and bills only. This is why I feel I need it: when I go to hot yoga I can't take a LV because of how hot it gets in the room. Taking my cles I don't worry so much (esp with canvas) I also take it anywhere I feel my bag would get dirty. I also just use one everyday with my bag

I have a fuschia perfo monogram cles that I used almost daily for years. It is so very worn and beat up looking. I loved it. It expanded over time and ultimately I could fit about 10 cards and a bit of folded bills. I just got the old style pomme (slightly smaller than the new cles) and love it just as much. They are great as a keychain for some added color and fun. Also good for a quick errand run where you only need an ID and a card and a bit of cash. Or a business card holder. Or for carrying a type of card you rotate from purse to purse. Or change purse. I could keep going. Like an earlier poster said, they are addictive!

I have a mono cles & tend to use it for cards / ID / cash if I'm carrying a purse or a clutch that's too tiny to carry my Zippy wallet instead of for its key purposes 👍

Emprenite key pouch seems to be the answer! It can definitely double as a small wallet (very roomy can fit in 15 + cards) and the embrossed monogram is very subtle. I got one in cerise when it first came out really loved the style and functionality although I wanted the colour in midnight blue better so returned it. I am keeping my fingers crossed that the colour will be released in the UK! ImageUploadedByPurseForum1421850750.997002.jpg

I've got pomme and mono and definitely use mono so much more. Pomme is so beautiful but I find that it doesn't fit a lot and can be hard to get things in and out. Having said that, I still absolutely love it! Good luck deciding xx

Yes totally get one!! I feel I am the same as you, I don't carry a lot and need a huge wallet. I use my cles in conjunction with the ZCP as a wallet and have my essential cards in the cles and whatever else in the ZCP. I think it's perfect as I don't like the large long wallets.
I also have mine in Rose litchi and the color is gorgeous
