Miss Moneypenny
As most of my loyal readers can attest, I’m all about finding the most affordable and practical options when shopping for myself, except when it comes to bags and wallets. Since durability is key, I like to invest in well constructed leather pieces that will also look chic and classic. Since my Hobo wallet is on its way out, here are some promising replacements that are top on my list.
Marni – The mustard yellow leather paired with an ultra sleek buckle could totally double as a clutch at night.
Marc Jacobs – If I decide to go for a sturdy wallet in a classic shape, this little Marc Jacobs number will be the one.
YSL – The ivory color is a nice departure from my sea of brown and black wallets with its trademark lock and preppy flap.
Miu Miu – Last year, I was obsessed with the bag version of this wallet, but think the miniature size will add some nice texture to my purse.
Louis Vuitton – The pebbled leather and added zipper with studs adds a bit of edge to this anonymous Louis Vuitton.
Marc Jacobs – This shade of petal pink is probably one of my favorites and in this quilted pattern, it’s almost too cute to resist.
What do you think, my lovely readers? Do you have a favorite?

Love pink one!! Kisses
Petal Pink – Marc Jacobs – it’s a winner! xx
I’m on the hunt for the perfect wallet also. Love these pics, but I think the Marni is my fave.
Miu Miu!!!!
All of them! I always wait patiently to see if they go on sale, though…I can never justify [to myself] spending that much on a wallet…
I love your look, you’re beautiful
Ohh lovely picks – and wonderful colors!
These are all fab! My first vote goes to the Marni. I love the sleek look, and it is in the Pantone 2009 color of the year, so you can’t go wrong. Of course, will you get sick of the color too quickly? If so, my second vote goes to the YSL. Love the buckle, and the compact size. Good luck choosing and have a wonderful Christmas!
I’m diggin’ the Marni <3
miu miu or marni !!!
i think the long ones are more practical!
i find my short ones end of becoming a brick !!!
happy holidays BEAUTY!
xx.
I’d say one of the black ones so it won’t show as much dirt or wear. I really like the LV or Miu Miu because of their size.
Good luck!
i like the miu miu. i think it offers great texture in small dose. it’s very different.
YSL for sure! loving the white.
perfect timing–i’m so into clutches right now! I love them all. xo
My wallet is about to bite the dust, too … if I had the cash, I’d go for the Marni!
I have to admit I love the Marni one best, even though it’s one of the most expensive on your list. A good wallet holds up a long time, so I think you’re smart to make the investment. Plus you feel awesome whipping it out at cash registers.
I’ll take them all.
PS Merry Christmas. Am so glad I found your blog!
Hi there-sigh, all gorgeous, I do love the LV though! Have a happy xmas my dear!
The last Marc Jacob’s bag is AMAZING. That color….I want it! The YSL is so chic looking too!
oooh i especially love that miu miu one.
p.s. love your blog too…added you to my blog roll
xo
I’d go for the pink one! definitely!
The colour is great and is really hot for spring!
yes sure! I added you to my blog list =)
I love the yellow Marni or the black Marc Jacobs… but I’d have to wait for those lovelies to go on sale first.
love the LV one. A well made wallet is a good investment. I bought a Gucci one a few years back and it still looks great!
I like them all, but I think my favorite is the Louis Vuitton wallet.
Have a wonderful holiday!
I love the Marni, but the petal pink MJ is also really cute!
I love the quilted pink Marc Jacobs as well-it’s so pretty! I think I’m in the market for a new wallet as well and these all look quite lovely
Marni looks great! MJ also looks nice, but I had to choose, Marni would be mine! Merry Christmas
Oh, Miu Miu… I love it!
the LV or pink petal Marc, for sure.
they are both to die for.
I like the Louis Vuitton and the pink Marc Jacobs.
the pink one. super cute.
I love the Marc Jacobs wallet!
my favorites are the black miu miu, the pink marc jacobs, and the black louis vuitton. they are really nicely made wallets. i like looking at wallets that are as nicely made and thought out as bags/purses. click on my name!
Love the white YSL. Like the square shape!
Love the Miu Miu!
love all these picks! haha i’m greedy i want it all!
I have to say I love the LV, it’s very now.
Great blog! I love all those choices.
Would you consider trading links?

My vote is for the Marni or LV…and I agree, no need to save on bags and wallets!
Miu Miu is my fave
l-o-v-e the MJ and LV in black! Sigh, these beautiful wallets remind me how desperately shluppy my current one is…
chanel and hermes wallets are classics and will probably last you a whole lifetime =)♥
