Hi Dear TPF'ers!
I hope everyone had a great Christmas because I sure did
I didn't get any LV since I did just get 2 for my birthday 2 weeks before, however, I got enough gift certificates to enable me to purchase another LV, yay!
So far, I have an Epi Brea in Rubis (MM), Mono Speedy 30, and DE Eva... so its now time for a wallet! Yay! I have finally convinced myself that I can spend the money on a wallet that I can use with all of my bags. Since I have now gotten over the "I can't believe a wallet costs so much...", I can then now start exploring my options!
I went to LV yesterday but was unable to make a decision... However, I know I didn't look at every wallet they have since they have ran out...and partly because it was so busy in there and the SA just kinda left me alone.
Anyway, here's my "wallet style"... I only have a very few cards in my wallet. As a matter of fact, I only need a max of 6 slots, if that. I also clean out my wallet often as I don't like keeping old receipts and what not. I also tend to keep gift cards and such in a different case as I don't use them much and like a clutter-free wallet. I am open to either a short or long wallet. It would be nice to have a compartment for change, though it's not necessary.
With the above being said, I know the following:
- Zippy is out. It has way too many slots, and I know will be bulkier than what I am looking for. Besides, I still can't get over that price point
- I LOVE the insolite but again way too many card slots (12 I think) and the snaps kinda worry me a bit. Can insolite owners weigh in on this?
- I actually like the Sarah wallet but did not see it in person. It looks like it could feel bulky though...
- Emilie might be an option...but just seems a little "thin"...or feels a little cheap? I don't know how to explain it.. and I feel like the color kinda removes from the classic look, as compared to just a regular mono wallet
Anyway, I hope YOU can help me pick one! Would appreciate all your feedback!
TIA
