Wallets

[usersubmitted]

another note from grechen: I’m so excited something like this has finally popped up as a place to shop for Israeli designers online. Please check it out…the handbags from Kisim, Magnes Sisters, and Efika are absolutely gorgeous, but I admit, I’m also falling head over heels for the duck doll from Manuella!

It’s time for my periodic Comme Des Garcons update here on Grechen’s Closet – I simply cannot profess my love enough…

I’m still in LOVE with my large wallet (mine is like this, but blue):

and am trying VERY HARD to resist buying this (I’ve been coveting for months), even though it’s marked down about 50% at Shopbop…

(I think I’m going to have to give in…)

I’ve stumbled across a new site for Comme des Garcons, Lucky Scent. They primarily sell perfumes & colognes (hence the name), but also have a sizable collection of CDG wallets – including the new metallic number-embossed collection:

But still, the best selection online, hands down, is at Dover Street Market. I mean, how can you beat this?

Just some ideas for you if you’re looking for a wallet this year; Comme des Garcons is a great investment. As always, check the Grechen’s Closet Designer Directories for updated list of where to buy Comme des Garcons online…I try to keep it as current as possible!
