I had a wallet that I absolutely loved. I splurged a bit and bought a real leather one several years ago. The leather was like butter, super soft and pretty purple. :giggle The only problem is that it was so soft that it didn't last for the rest of my life like I would have liked. Lol. Also there was something (glue?) sticky inside the clear pocket meant for my ID and I have to take it out every time I buy alcohol (not THAT often) at the store and it was always stuck and a pain to get out, so I decided to buy a new wallet. I've purchased three now and I don't like any of them. Lol. What do you guys use for a wallet these days? I need ideas. I have a bunch of cards that need a slots, some credit cards, some "membership" cards or library card type things. I also need a zipper spot for money/coins. Otherwise I'm totally open. what whatever. I'm thinking I shouldn't keep all of the cards in there own special slot to make the wallet smaller...
 
I use the vary you wristlet wallet from Thirty-One. I love it!!! I usually never have to carry a purse :tu
 
I forgot to mention that I have several (different colors) but I have used one particular color for sooooo long now and they hold up so well and I'm hard on things lol I have washed it several times too so it washes easily in the regular washing machine.
 
so I use a cross body back that holds my keys, phone and a wristlet. In the wristlet I have this little debit/credit card holder. so the wristlet houses loose change and the little debit/credit card holder. I rarely carry cash though. LOL.

Both the wristlet and the credit/debit card holder are from coach and I've had them both for 13+ years.
 
I like a more squarish type of wallet, that is easier to shove into my smaller purses. Zipper closure keeps everything safely inside without any accidental emptying. I can't always find something kind of unique but I always keep my eyes open. Right now I have a shiny kind of 70's patent leather gold wallet and when that wears out I already found a replacement, a wallet with birds on it.
 
I found a wallet on Amazon that I like. Took me a few years. I loved my old Longaberger leather wallet that I had for years. It is a clutch RFID wallet that has 14 credit card pockets, 2 horizontal pockets and 2 interior picture/ID windows. It also has 2 zipper pockets. It is 7.5"x4"x1.5" in size and best of all, it comes in purple! It is called the Mundi File Master Womens RFID Blocking Wallet Clutch Organizer with Change Pocket.
 
I finally found the wallet I like. It fits everything perfectly. My daughters and I compare wallets and buy the same, but I have stopped and found my wallet! I think it is MK.
 
Thanks for all of the ideas. I think I definitely need to downsize. That's the biggest thing (no pun intended) that I don't like about the one I have now, it's too darn big and doesn't fit well in my cute little purse. :giggle

I love seeing pictures/links of what you guys use! :agree
 
I carry a small purse so I use a very minimalist wallet. It is sort of like this https://www.katespade.com/products/knott-zip-cardholder/K5611.html?frp=K5611 T3T. It has three slots for cards and a little zipper section where I carry a little cash for emergencies.

Thanks for the link! That is so cute and funny enough, the purse I'm using is a pink kate spade that I found at my outlet mall... so that little pink one sure would match nicely! :giggle I might have to go back to my outlet store and see if they have it. :D
 
I use a tiny wallet that is attached to my keychain- it is this one: https://www.mdbm.com/products/limoges. It has three zippered compartments, one I keep change in, one for folded cash and then the center area has two dividers in it that I use to sort my credit cards/id/insurance/costco card etc. It is super soft and lightweight, so I don't have to detach it from my keychain when I am driving. Here is a photo of mine:

Please excuse the dog hair on my couch- I have a golden retriever and he leaves his fur EVERYWHERE.

Lol on the dog hair! :giggle That is so cute!! They have such fun colors!
 
My husband is my wallet and purse :giggle I make him do errands with me. I also keep everything in my lab coat in my pocket at work which would be my phone. I also have no cash.
 
I honestly can't live without having cash. After getting into major trouble with credit cards, I had to get away from having them. I had close to 20 at one time and am now down to 1. If I go out to eat, I pay with cash. I had to get into the mindset that if I don't have the cash to pay for something then I can't buy it.

My wallet also needs to hold a checkbook. Yes, I still use one. There are some items that I will not use a CC on but will write a check. And, with the other things I need to have with me when I go somewhere, I always have to carry a purse so a regular clutch wallet works great. A small cute purse just doesn't work for me :giggle
 
I bought a small card wallet at Disneyland to use on our trip and I've never switched back! It's all I really need!
 
I just got this one as an early birthday gift! I love that I can add in my phone & lipgloss & just carry this instead of my purse! It's got a ton of card slots & a coin area too! ;) I can't find this exact print- but basically it's this one.

A few years ago I needed a new one, so for Christmas, my mom bought me one. But it's HUGE! Needless to say I don't need something very big, so I was using this really cute pink one that my daughter didn't want anymore, but just the other day, the zipper broke and I had to cut it open! So now I need a new one, too!
 
I don't have a wallet, but my Vera Bradley Mini Hipster has a built in wallet with RFID protection. I get a new one on my birthday each year.
