whistles-purse.jpgWell I think it comes close, don't you? Particularly for this season of merry-making and shiny things. Despite the bow, the purse has a geometric look about it that isn't too girly, and best of all, the inside compartment keeps all your cards visible and beautifully organised.

This clear visibility and organisation is a very important feature in a wallet, as I found when I discovered a wealth of loyalty cards and gift vouchers in my own tightly-packed purse that were long forgotten and sadly out of date. If you're looking to accessorize, the purse would match up perfectly with these black and peach bow shoes by KG Kurt Geiger.
