Today I am going to be speaking about something that I adore. That is my Mulberry Wallet. I can remember buying this wallet the other year and I couldn’t believe I was parting with so much cash. Never had I had an issue parting with hundreds or even thousands of pounds for a handbag or heels. Never in a million years did I think I would spend big on a wallet that is hidden inside a handbag. It was my good old nan that one day gave me a talking to and convinced me to invest. We were out for dinner and I was carrying my Chanel Double Flap Bag. When I went to pay the bill, I had an old tatty wallet that I got many years earlier from Topshop. She looked at me with disgust and I quickly knew I had to upgrade.
Why I bought it?
As I mentioned, it was my nan that fully shamed me into investing in a wallet. She really did have a point. I was carrying these crazy handbags, but pulling out something that looked like it was found in a jumble sale. I looked at quite a few brands before settling on Mulberry. However, I know that the quality is going to be there with Mulberry and it will stand the test of time. I also didn’t want anything that was going to have a zip because I always get so many issues when I am at a checkout and quickly trying to unzip my wallet!

The functionality?
The thing that I really love about this item is that there is so much room. On the front it has a turn style lock which makes it quick and easy to get access. Then inside, there are around 20 card slots, ideal for me. Plenty of room for cash and a zip up compartment in the middle for coins. Then, on the back of the wallet there is a pouch where I like to keep my contactless bank card, ideal for when I am hopping on the tube in London. Never had I longed for anything that my Mulberry Wallet does not already have.

The size?
Because I carry literally everything with me, I need a big wallet. I have so many cards and I do like to carry cash. I did once try to go with the card holders that were all of the range, but I struggled with them. Quite a few people these days do opt for something smaller than this, but I have never had an issue with the larger size of this item. Even when I am carrying a smaller handbag like the Chanel Double Flap bag, this fits inside fine. The only handbag that I have an issue with is the Dior Saddle, but that it is a more awkward shape!

The quality of the leather?
I am mentioning this last, but it is something very important. That is the quality of the leather. If you guys are familiar with Mulberry, you will know that their leather is always amazing quality. As I mentioned, I have been using this now for years and the leather looks as good as the day that I first bought it. I have honestly used every single day and even though there have been signs of age, it has never been something that could not be cleaned. Honestly, I tend to just go over this with a leather wipe every now and again and it comes up looking amazing!
I hope that you guys liked this blog post. If you are looking for a new wallet, I cannot recommend my Mulberry wallet anymore. I have been using this for a number of years now and it still looks as good as the day that I bought it. As I mentioned earlier in this blog post, I bought my Mulberry wallet because it is just a timeless item. No matter how many years go by, this will always be an item that is in style. I have gotten so much use out of this and I know that it will be well worth it moving forward. I think that for £295, this is well worth the cash. Leave me a comment and let me know if you would splurge on a wallet or do you opt for the high-street?
