I agree. Such a stunning piece. How is she wearing in?

It looks as good as new. Glad i picked a dark color. I did treat her with leather protectant and so far no stains. It is very functional and just what I needed as a compact wallet. The ckin compartment is heavy duty and can store a lot of coins. I saw there was a burgundy on farfetch. Not sure if it is still there but it looks absolutely gorgeous too!

I cannot believe I missed your reveal. That wallet may just be THE perfect small wallet. Thank you for sharing it with us here, and taking such great pictures. I hope you enjoy your wallet for years and years!

That's nice. Yes. I am loving the color. I love how the wallet opens up too like a book. Glad you are enjoying her.
 
Close up pictures. I had been looking for a compact wallet for some time and this truly fits the bill. Many thanks to the kind ladies for sharing your experiences with TODS. This is my very first TODS purchase and I am very happy with my purchase. The leather looks great and feels sturdy. My next purchase is likely to be a pair of loafers, we'll see. *winks : )

Thanks for letting me share.
Just curious.... What was your criteria for a small wallet? :-). Wonder if yours is the same as mine?

Thank you jburgh! It is the PERFECT wallet for me and I hope it will be for other ladies too. I hope it lasts but in the event I need a new one, I will like to pick Tods again. I am a creature of habit somehow. 😁

Will be most happy to share. My simple criteria (well, actually not that simple as it took me ages to find this TODS wallet).

It must be:
- zip around closure as the wallet is one item that we toss about in our bags the most and having a zip around closure that nothing falls out, ever.
- compact in size. I already carry a lot with my young child so I will like as compact or non bulky a wallet as possible. This is one reason why I did not choose the continental style.
- few card slots. My loyalty cards are housed in a separate pouch so I only need the important cards to be with me.
- coins compartment. Change is aplenty in my country and though I empty my wallet daily. I will like a coin compartment that is secure and yet easy to access coins.
- bills compartment. I have used compact wallets that do not have bills compartments. It is cumbersome to fold and unfold bills at payment and thus I made it a strict criteria that my wallet must have this.
- sturdy. I do not wish to baby a wallet that is prone to scratches, say lambskin. Don't get me wrong. It is beautiful leather but a wallet is most used, out of all SLGs.
- ease of usage. It must be easy to get into. I previously purchased the Ferragamo Vara Bow wallet and the coin compartment was a chore to open. I had no choice but to let it go.

So there you have it. 😊 I will be most happy to hear whether we stand united in wallet criteria.

Oh this is fun!

Ok for me I had larger wallets but I am looking to switch to a crossbody over the summer. I like being able to carry my cards. There are really only 6 that I used all the time and the other 10 on occasion. So for me lets see

- compact size

- must fit bills I hate folding money. I prefer them flat.

- leather but a soft leather for card slots because when they are too snug or stiff it hurts my cuticles to pull them out.

- I do not care for zip arounds with a zipper inside. Does this make sense? Sometimes those accordian wallets have this zip pouch in the middle and I always get the main zipper caught on the second zipper while trying to do and undo my wallet. So the verdict is still out. I was looking for a flap style with no zippers but those are hard to find and I do worry about my cards falling out. Not sure how often that actually happens with flap style wallets but I don't know.

- must open like a book. I prefer my cards to sit long ways and not short ways? I don't like them to go in on their side but rather straight in so you can fully see the logo on the top.

- I am thinking a french wallet sort of style would be nice because I don't carry change and the other cards will fit nicely in that change compartment.

- I think that is it really. Lol. I know I am weird. Currently I am trying to sell off my wallets that did not work for me and my cards are all inside this Vera ID case. I feel like a small child without a proper wallet. Lol.

So there you have it. Thoguhts?
