Handbag with card slots?

[mulberryfan0]

I'm searching for a new handbag for my mother. She has always carried lower quality bags and she is open to trying new brands, and I really hope I can get something nice for her!

The only requirement is that the bag has to have multiple card slots (like 6+) and be a little bigger than a WOC to fit her regular stuff in it (she really dislikes having to carry a wallet). Mulberry's Darley and Dior's Diorama are too small.

Can anyone please recommend some other options? TIA!

Fossil makes some great small wallet bags like you're looking for - check out the Gina Mini Bag at fossil.com - they may have others that would be of interest as well.

Thank you so much for the recommendation. I've looked at the website and currently do not see anything that would work. Their leathers look really soft though.

@mulberryfan0 , I don't have a specific design in mind, but you might consider a bespoke Massaccesi handbag for your mother. You can specifically request to have more card slots in any design that you like, or replace the slip pockets with additional card slots instead, etc. The cost is also great for such beautiful craftsmanship and leather.

Even though Massaccessi has a webshop, I would recommend using it only to browse the designs and check on the sizing and specs. You can also customize with a leather of your choice, and the owner/designer Marco has an incredible number of options available, in texture, weight, and color.

I am still new to MM but the ladies in the tpf thread were incredibly welcoming to me and I'm sure they would be willing to answer any questions you might have about the ordering process or thoughts on specific designs they already own.

During the ordering process, Marco was also very willing to answer my questions and listen to my needs/thoughts/use cases for my handbags, and he was able to make suggestions for everything I've ordered so far to fit my lifestyle and needs in a handbag.

The Louboutin Paloma spike clutch bag. It fits your requirements but it is a bit edgy and expensive. Beautiful bag though.

Thank you soooo much ohmisseevee! The links are helpful (some of the leathers look very similar and are confusing). I saw the huge Massaccesi thread here but only 2-3 card slots in several bags...I will contact Marco but do you know if it is possible to get 6 or more card slots in the customization?

The Zhoe legend would be a perfect bag for my mother!

I haven't requested this particular customization myself, but I'm sure the Zhoe Legend would be able to accommodate 6+ card slots. Marco should be able to confirm If you have questions about specific leathers, do ask him or ask the ladies in the tpf thread - the ones who have bags in different leathers should be able to provide additional insight. This post will also help -> Massaccesi Leather & Customization Reference Thread

Thank you I will post a photo when I design/order it.

Come join us in the tpf thread I found the webshop overwhelming but seeing pictures of the bags other ladies had ordered/created was incredibly helpful.

I have noticed that Derek Alexander has quite a few bags that fit the description. (Canadian company based in Calgary, but I would imagine they sell online.)
