Pulling out an overstuffed and abused wallet that spits cards, coins and receipts on the counter looks a tad shabby, ladies. It’s time to ditch your tired, old wallet and start fresh.  First declutter, then start the hunt for the perfect new wallet to suit your life and style. We found tons of great options at places like Hudson’s Bay, Sears, Bentley, and Boes. 

Before you head out, here are a few tips to choosing the perfect wallet:

• Look for day-to-night versatility. Pick a wallet that’s big enough to double as a clutch in a pinch, but not so large it swallows up most of the space in your purse. A zip or tab style with an optional wristlet meets all the criteria.

• Grab one with a zippered change purse in the middle – you’ll love the easy access to parking change. Make sure there are plenty of slots for credit cards and ID, and downsize your reward cards collection.

• Choose a wallet that’s big enough to handle a lipstick and that also has a sleeve for an iPhone or Android.

• Finally, pick an adventurous colour or pattern. A wallet is a perfect place to step out of your colour comfort zone without huge commitment to a larger piece in a daring shade. We adore the fresh tangerine hues currently on shelves.
