I'm thinking about getting the Ali in Whiskey, but the Legacy wallet in Whiskey is not on the site anymore.

Do you usually like to have a matching wallet with your bag? Maybe I can see if there are any stores that still carry it?

Thanks for your input!!

;)

I usually don't, but lately I am getting hooked on accessories so I have a black signature and a khaki signature wallet to match my bags that are the same color...

I HAVE to have a matching wallet to my bag... I also try to get a matching wristlet. I even go as far as matching the hardware, the color of the leather trim (I own signature pieces only) and the color of the stitching.

I really wanted the Signature Shoulder Tote in chocolate but the stitching on the bag and on the wallet weren't the same color so I passed... I really wanted that bag, too! :push:

I'm bad... :shame:

I did buy the Legacy Shoulder Bag along with the Ali in whiskey and do
have the matching wallet as well. I generally don't match my wallet to my bag I just happened to love that wallet so much that I purchased it. I sometimes use other designer wallets in my Coach Bags. For my blue Ergo Tote I purchased a Tignanello wallet in a turquoise that is very close to my bag. The reason I did not buy the Coach Ergo Wallet was because it is signature which I do not care for. I kind of go with my mood, sometimes I match but I also like things that don't necessarily match as well.

I don't match my wallet to my bag but my accessories do match each other. For my legacy & ergo bags I use my striped legacy accessories. Right now I'm carrying a Banana Republic hobo in winter white and I'm using my signature khaki/gold trim accessories with it. I don't mind if they don't match my bag as long as they complement each other.

^ I go with the compliment theory as well! :smile1:

I use a Marc Jacobs zip clutch for my wallet, but typically use a Balenciaga bag or Coach bag!! So they are diff brands, but I like the color to be a compliment of the bag I am using... Also, my accesories are diff from my wallet, but match each other. (i.e. - MJ zip clutch in tan, sparkle lilac Coach wristlet & card case in bag.)

This way, I can switch between bags easily, and I know where everything is... I don't think I could stand switching wallets really often.

Not all my bags but some. I do like a wallet that looks good in the bag. I have a black soho wallet, tobacco wallet, a scribble and a mimosa wallet. I would like to get a red one for my whiskey bag. I think it would look cute.

Some accessories at least coordinate or contrast. Metallic Optice Hobo w/matching wallet & wristlet. For my black and white ali's I have a black wallet, a fushia planner which match the stripes, plus striped wristlet. I have the Mahogany chelsea satchel with lavendar lining and a lavendar wristlet. It's fun.

The money I was going to buy a little stam with I instead traded in my ludlow for a french purse, so thats over 700 right there, so I don't have the luxury of even thinking about more then one wallet!

I dont carry a wallet, I use a wristlet for my wallet. I like to buy leather bags and then get accessories in a signature. Makes it easier to switch out my bags as often as I want. I am also like others here, I like to match my accessories... matching cosmetic bag, wristlet, skini, whatever. I did it a little backwards this last time though. My DH bought me a patent wristlet for Christmas so I had to go out and buy the bag (and the skini) to match :happydance:
