I was always a fan of small, zip-around purses - but then I got my trusty Mulberry Somerset continental-style wallet, and I wouldn't look back. It can be a pain to fit into small clutch bags, but that's what spare coin purses are for, n'est-ce pas?
If you don't want to do too much damage your existing wallet by replacing it with a designer one, there are plenty of chic, ultra-long purses on the high street, so I've picked out a few of my favourites today. Above, is Diesel's striped metallic wallet, £48 at ASOS. I love the subtle metallic sheen on the stripes. Below is Mango's fabulous studded wallet: £20 also at ASOS
