My Wallets & Handbag Accessories

Wallets Handbag AccessoriesNo woman has ever said she has enough shoes, handbags, and might I say, handbag accessories, right?  I mean, it’s totally acceptable to rotate through about 6 or 7 wallets if I can justify each of their uses, correct?  Well, here is my attempt at justifying my collection of wallets, card cases, card holders, pouches, and even a passport holder.  What is the point of a passport holder, can I ask?  I’ve always wondered why one would need one, but they are certainly pretty!

WALLETS
I really only have two wallets that I use, and those change depending on the size of the bag that I use.  Actually, make that three.  The one I use the most is my in the Monogram Vernis Leather.  This is a rather large, kind of heavy wallet and I can fit my whole life in it, including my cell phone if pressed.  Since I use a tote bag 90% of the time, this is not a problem.  It also has a sentimental value since Michael gave it to me to cheer me up when our first dog passed away.  It didn’t cheer me up, but it was a very nice try!  The second wallet was another gift from Michael-the .  It’s significantly smaller in size than the Sarah but it still holds about the same amount inside.  Finally, I also picked up the for when I travel.  It allows me to pare down to the bare necessities but still has room for cash, a few credit cards, an ID window and even change.

CARD CASES
This next category is where things get a little out of control.  There really is no way I can justify more than two of these, but hey, now that I have them all, I’m not going to get rid of them!  My favorite of the bunch is the .  It has six card slots (3 on each side) and a nice pocket at the top to fold up your cash.  I’m all about having options, so I like having all those card slots.  My next favorite is the , because, like it says in the name, the top zips up.  It’s always nice to have a little extra security.  Finally, I also have the because…because I bought it before I bought the one.  And the one I have is pink. So there. There is one more card case that I can justify because it is a business card case.  I got it at and I absolutely love it!  It’s just the classic and they also have it available in a variety of colors on their site.  Also, since a lot of you have asked, I’ve been ordering my business cards from Moo.com for years now.  They’re a much better quality than other online options, and they now offer gold foil.  They have a lot of great pre-made designs or you can custom make your own.

RANDOM ACCESSORIES
There are a few commonly used accessories that really don’t fall into a particular category.  For instance, I did get a passport case with a recent GiGi New York order.  I’m still not sure what the point of one of those is, but it looks pretty cool.  I haven’t busted it out yet, but I’m hoping for some international travel to come my way soon!  I also got an from GiGi New York.  It’s not just a phone case, and it’s not just a wallet, so I decided to put it in the “random” category.  I love that if I’m heading to the beach, pool, or going on a school run, this can handle everything I need for the short term.  Finally, I had to include one “pouch”.  I have had this Rebecca Minkoff pouch for years, and it holds all my beauty necessities in whatever bag I carry.  It’s made out of the softest leather, and in a pinch, it can double as a clutch.  I love options!

So that’s the collection…for now.  What suggestions do you have?  What purse gadgets/organizers/accessories do you have that you think I need to have?  Please share!!
