I had LV Sarah wallet which was very big and I was not using it very often but unfortunately, it was pickpocketed out of my bag recently. I am looking for a new wallet to replace it. I think I would prefer leather and a bit smaller. What would you recommend for a simple everyday wallet that I can use every day for a very long time? I only want to have one nice wallet that I can use with most things.
help me chose a new wallet

I'm in love with the Chanel flap wallets/cardholders. I only have one so far but will buy more if they ever come out with the right colours and leathers I want. There are two versions, one a little bigger with a pocket on the back and two larger inside slots plus a small card slot and the other a little bit smaller with no pocket on the back and only one large inside slot plus the small card slot. I have the larger one and it holds an impressive amount of cards, bills, coins etc if necessary. I guess it depends on how you want to organise your wallet what model you prefer, each card separately or in a bunch etc.
Links to two really good presentations of both sizes. These youtubers totally convinced me to buy this cardholder/wallet

Thank you so much. They are absolutely amazing but out of my price range, unfortunately. I am looking for something that would be about £350 max. Thanks for your recommendation!
Longchamp has many different styles in different sizes, my recommendation is Le Foulonné which is durable and pretty. You'll be sure to find something that suits your needs. For high end, Chanel caviar is durable and, as SomethingGoodCanWork mentioned, there are several great styles to choose from.
If you prefer LV, check out this stunning Zoe Wallet: it's 295 pounds for canvas, and I think the color Fuchsia is gorgeous, and that's coming from a person who doesn't like pink. If you want full leather, it's a bit above your budget, but still managable and, I think, totally worth it. It has a compartment for bills, too, it just doesn't show in the pictures on the offcial website for some reason.
Here are some Pradas: Small saffiano leather wallet with bow, a regular Small saffiano, some Colorful & Multicolor versions, these beauties with the logo of the same color as the leather.
If you're not a fan of Saffiano, which isn't very luxurious to the touch, these are really nice too: a bit Funky one, Etiquette, Simple calf leather one, and the classic Quilted leather one.
I hope I didn't mess up any links
Also, I would suggest checking out Nordstrom and other resellers, they can sometimes have good deals. I heard good things about Luisaviaroma, but personally never shopped there.
ETA: forgot the Lipstick wallet and the one with the glossy finish, I believe?

Hi, Thanks so much. I love it. When you said fuchsia, I thought - Ok, we have a bit different taste as I never owned anything that has any of that colour even in a very small amount - my least favorite colour ever. But you are so right! I love it - thanks so much!
Thanks so much. Just perfect for my budget - I think quilted leather one is my favourite although I need to go and see them in the shop.

You're very welcome, I felt exactly the same way. But it's stunning and goes really nicely with the canvas.
