Goldilocks Wallet

Hopefully it will hold up just as well as my polka dot suitcase!  

Kate Spade wristlet wallet is super adorbs and super functional!  It took awhile to find a perfect wallet... and here she is!  It has a bunch of compartments and is actually large enough to be a clutch.  The extra zipper compartment on the outside can carry a lipstick and compact with ease. The strap is key.  I forget things if I set them down for a split second.  I've lost two wallets in my lifetime and that's two times too many.  Oh and the bow... all wallets should have such a bow:).

I ended up replacing my leopard print nylon wallet for this red beauty.  Two things bothered me about the previous one: it was nylon and the inside lining was a light ivory color.  I'm really hard on my wallets and hope they will last a long time.  At least a couple years.  This new one is leather and the inside lining is black with small white polka dots.  It's also a wristlet which the other one was not.  It's just perfect.  KS makes such fun pocketbooks and accessories.  My last one was a Vera Bradley.  I used the heck out of it but it frayed too soon because it's made of fabric.  I love Vera but the fabric doesn't last very long.  KS nylon bags are super lightweight and many of her leather bags are lightweight as well.  The material seems more durable.  It's also super nice to live close to the KS outlet - I never have to pay full price again:). 

I really wanted a red wallet for some reason.  It's still dark enough to not show too many dirt marks... but maybe I should have purchased black!  Too late now... I removed all the tags already:)
