ZC vs. Continental Wallet

[dbeth]

Is the ZC and Continental wallet the same size? Does anyone have both? I have only seen the ZC in person.

Just wondering if I could use the wallet as a clutch?

i used to have a quilted continental wallet. you can use it as a clutch if you don't plan on toting around your cell phone or lipstick because those two items are not going to fit. assuming size and layout is the same, the continental is a little longer than the zc.

I recently saw the Continental Wallet at Nordstroms and it's definitely smaller and MUCH lighter weight than the ZC. The inside is designed just like the wristlet/wallet (and the style is similar as well -- with a flap that snaps over the top)

Thanks tad---toting around the lipstick is a must!! I would like the cell phone to fit as well. Guess it won't work for me.

Iluv--thanks for the pic, that helps a lot!


I don't think it will work.


So could I squeeze a lipstick and cell phone into a ZC since it's a little bigger? When I looked at one a few weeks ago, I didn't bother opening it--which was silly of me!!

dbeth, my iphone and lipstick+ a gloss live in my zc along with a mini moleskin notepad
and Im able to zip it up
Depending on the chunkiness of the phone it should fit just fine.

i can fit my iphone in a zc.

Thanks gals! Looks like a ZC will be ok then.

I have a quilted mouse continental wallet and 3 ZC. I love the look of continental wallet but love the convenience of ZC. ZC is definitely heavier. Both fit the same stuff for me. IMO, continental wallet can use as a clutch. It's a little more classy, i think.
