Today, I went home with the zippy compact wallet in ebene. This is my first LV wallet and, since I hate switching wallets, I'd like this to be my one and only. The big selling points for me were
- damier ebene which is more discrete and easy to keep clean especially for international travel
- lots of organization (10 card slots, coin pouch, fits my cell phone and/or passport)
- can be used as a small clutch
- relatively small size, which means it can fit my smallest LV (the croissant pm)
One thing i did NOT like was the zip. it's a pain to zip all the way around to get my cash, etc. I also though the look of the zip was slightly less elegant than the others though it means i can store my things securely.
I like it. I'm on the fence as to whether i love it. i had considered some other wallets...i want something that checks off all my criteria and looks good when carried by itself. Likely, i'd keep damier but the vernis grew on me, especially rouge and pomme.
- sarah - While it does fit my croissant, it is a little difficult to take in and out and My other bags are all larger and would easily fit the sarah.
- french purse - i have loved this one for a long time. pomme would match so well with my red alcantara lined purses though it'd also draw a lot of attention
- koala - i like the clean lines, the clasp, and the damier with red lining. I do worry that the clasp may get scratched easily and that the coin section is too small.
