A wallet is a crucial aspect of the handbag industry that sometimes gets overlooked. Yes, I’ll admit I do have more handbags than wallets, but I think it’s essential that every handbag-loving girl needs at least one great wallet that can be interchanged between purses. Who wants to have a fabulous bag only to open it and pull your money out of a less than desirable wallet! I know I don’t, but I do tend to be a tad obsessive about having organization inside my purses.

Coach always has great wallets, and after taking a recent look, the Soho Leather Slim Envelope Wallet (3 7/8″ x 7 5/8″) is my pick. It’s made of lightweight leather with a fabric lining and comes in a choice of colors (black, mahogany or white). I love the white! There are 10 credit-card slots, 2 additional interior pockets, a double billfold, an interior zippered coin compartment, an outer pocket and a magnetic snap buckle closure—all this for $208.

And don’t despair if you can’t spend $208 for the Coach wallet. Nine West has a similar wallet for only $34. The Glazed Indexer (3.5″ x 5″) has 12 card slots, a double billfold, an exterior coin pocket, along with a buckle clasp. Colors available include classic black, blue, moss green and nut brown. Sure, it might not have as many details as the Coach, but you’ll still look great paying for your next purchase!
