Current Obsession: Smythson Chameleon Zip Around Travel Wallet


At any given time, I generally find myself craving high priced small leather goods, chiefly wallets. It is always a dangerous proposition for me to look at them because they largely exceed my budget, but the moment that I saw this Smythson Wallet in Violet my heart went pitter-patter! Stock images from Barneys.

  1. Are you me? Am I you? I am totally mind boggled. I have a powder blue one I've had for many years. I'm now convinced that in some alternate reality I have a doppelganger writing lolossecretbeautyblog.

    1. This is getting crazier and crazier!!!!!! I wish that I had purchased one of these years ago when they were less expensive-- though I suppose that it is all relative. I hope that they go on sale, my doppelgänger!!! Have a lovely weekend! <3

    2. lol you two make me smile! this is definitely a gorgeous wallet! I also have a desire for small leather goods... fortunately my boyfriend got me the alexander wang fumo wristlet/wallet for christmas and i feel pretty content for now haha. the only other things that tempt me are cute pouches with sayings on them, such as the ones from rebecca minkoff or anya hindmarch. but most of the time i decide to save the money for makeup lol

    3. LOL!!! My birthday is n less than two weeks- so when my husband asked what I wanted I showed him this picture!! He said I'll get it for you if that's what you want :-). However, I told him that I would rather wait for it to go on sale-- it's just more than I am comfortable spending! Lucky girl-- Alexander WAng wristlet/wallet!!!!! Cute pouches are so much fun!!!!!!!!

    1. I agree- the color is making me want it so badly-- but at over $700.00 I will wait to see if it goes on sale (I think :)

  3. Ah, Smythson...I very much want to own one of your little treasures one of these days!! Last year I pinned this little cosmetic case http://www.smythson.com/women/leather-accessories/beauty-pouch-2.html . Small and slightly impractical, but so dainty and beautiful!! Anyway...my wish list aside...LOL...this wallet is gorgeous!!! Love the color combo and I'm sure it's sumptuous to the touch :-) If you aren't getting this wallet for your birthday, what is on your birthday list?!!!

    1. Oh, I have to go check out your pin, Gummy! I agree, Smythson makes such gorgeous products, and this wallet and color combination really is making my heart go pitter patter, but it's just so expensive! I fear that if I actually see it in person that I will be irrational and end up buying it!! I don't really have much of a birthday list. There are a few things that I would like to get before too long: Burberry Pink Taupe Quad, LMdB Aurora Lip Palette, and a Clare Vivier makeup bag in pink with an orange zipper, and I would not be opposed to owning this wallet! :D

  4. I just bought a Smythson "housekeeper's purse" in powder blue (from the mara collection) and can't stop admiring it. Anyone know where I could get the matching sunglasses case? Smythson is sold out.

    1. WHat a lovely purchase you made! I LOVE the Housekeeper's Purse! I would check Barneys New York, Barney's New York Warehouse, Net-A-Porter, and then maybe somewhere like The Real Real. I hope that you find it! :-)
