Wallets
Why
As your wardrobe matures, so should your wallet. Make sure it's stylish and streamlined.
Origins
The word "wallet" has been in use since the late 14th century to refer to a bag or a knapsack for carrying articles.
How to Wear It
If you want a traditional wallet, with room for your receipts and loyalty cards, make sure it's a slimmer style. Or consider a cardholder, with room for just the day's essentials.
What to Look for
A cheap wallet will only cost you money in the long run. Look for durable stitching, quality linings and well-tanned leathers.
