I need a new purse, recommendations please

[Dancergirl]

Preferably not too big and clumpy but I do have a LOT of cards so I need lots of slots for those.

Don't know if this will help, but I have LOTS of cards, so I got a standard purse, and keep my bank cards & Nectar card in it, but have the attached for all of my other cards (that I don't use every day). (I picked it up from Debenhams)

It just means that if I'm just popping out, I can just grab my purse & it's not too heavy.

Made my life a wee bit easier.

I did think about that but would prefer just one purse for everything ideally.

Budget? Style?

[Dancergirl]

Budget - not really sure, maybe ??100...?

I like a classic style, neat looking

I'm a convert to the long style flap over purse after 20 years of ladies' wallets. I fumble less and with the inner zip coins stay safe. Mine is a Samsonite leather model with space in different places for about 20 credit cards and loads of long pockets. It may be a bit "clutch bag" style for you, but I definitely recommend it. I'll see if I can find a photo.

This sort of thing. Mine was about ??70 five years ago.

I can recommend that you do NOT buy one from Sadler or from Osprey out of TK Maxx. Grrr. I did and they are both rubbish for different reasons.

The last one I had that lasted was a leather one that cost about ??10 from Marks. That was about 13 years ago. It lasted me about 10 years and still looked great when I decided I wanted a change. Silly woman. Both the others were more expensive and lasted about 18 months each. I don't know what the quality would be like now.

Watching the thread with interest.

I have a Cath Kidston oilcloth one and it is very sturdy and has lasted well.

[Dancergirl]

Not keen on Cath Kidston, sorry. Would prefer leather.

I have one similar to THIS and it works for me.
Lots of card slot places and many other bits for everything!

Have a look at the And Mary website, really fabulous leather wallets. They are around ??50. I am on my second one and always get positive comments on them. They send them beautifully wrapped as well!

I have just recently got a michael Kors leather one form their outlet store in York - was reduced from ??90 to ??50, keeps all my cards in and I love it!

same as this but mine is green.
