No, I don't. To be frank, I'm just too lazy to switch wallets. I use one until it dies and then get another one.
With your handbags, do you get matching wallets for each?

I have a fairly old but much-loved brown leather Coach zip-around wallet that I always use (plus a couple of Coach leather cosmetic bags to hold everything else) and these are always in every bag.
NO. What a waste of $. I use one wallet until my dog eats it. Then I get another cheap but good quality one.
I rotate between 5 leather wallets:
2 half-size stubby zip arounds (brown and black)
2 full size slim zip arounds (brown and black)
1 tooled leather
I don't change them every day, but sometimes a different bag calls for a wallet of a different size. That's when I change them. They probably coordinate the day I switch them, and usually not until I switch them the next time.
I do match my sunglasses, shoes and belt however (brown with brown, black with black, saddle with saddle....), otherwise, I get the creeps!

I don't buy matching wallets for my bags ... I find wallets a little too expensive for what you're getting, I'd rather put that money towards another bag. I do have 5 wallets that I do rotate to match my bags: Prada red leather, LV monogram, Gucci black leather, Gucci brown monogram and Dior blue monogram. I find these colors match all of my bags.
No, I do not like doing the matchy-matchy action. I like my bags and accessories to compliment each other, but none of that matching for me. It looks too staged.
That would be too many wallets to rotate my stuff in. I'm having an okay time switching handbags everyday but I can't imagine doing that for wallets too. Different wallets have different compartments and everytime I switch I wouldn't remember where I put this or that. Same thing as when I do rotate back to a certain wallet I've used before, I might place some credit cards in another slot instead then when I need it....I'd be digging in every compartment cause I thought it was in the slot I put it in the very first time!

Me too, I like them to compliment each other, I guess that's what I meant to say earlier. I like them to "go" but I don't get the exact designer in the exact pattern/color. I just got a Lodis floral wallet that has all kinds of colors in it. It goes well with almost all of my solid colored bags so I use that alot. I do have LV wallets for my LV bags though..
I don't match my wallets either, maybe if I had lots of extra money lying around I would. I don't think I'd want to be changing my wallet everytime I changes purses though, because that would be pretty much every day. Right now I have an LV wallet and a Chanel wallet. I use the Chanel in the spring/summer, and the LV in the fall/winter. I also have a smaller Paul Frank wallet that I use when I don't have room in my bag for my Chanel or LV.
