The Best Designer SLGS to Fit Every Mini Bag in Your Closet

Hit picks from Chanel and Bottega to Louis Vuitton and more!

Best SLGs

While the big bag movement has finally gotten moving, with designers like Saint Laurent, Bottega Veneta, Ferragamo, and more tantalizing us with carryalls that can truly, well, carry it all, mini bags are going nowhere fast.

In fact, time after time, the major complaint many handbag lovers have about big bags is filling them. Many of us have learned to slim down what it is that we carry after years of mini and micro bags being on-trend, making the need for a bigger bag in our rotation obsolete.

Thus, despite the sheer chicness of big bags and their effortless appeal, many of us have stuck with our smaller bags, and we need small wallets and card cases to complement them. While a wallet sits inside our bags, mostly hidden, it’s often the designer item we use the most, and having a nice rotation is totally underrated.

Plus, with the holiday season in full swing, there’s no better time to gift one to the luxury lover in your life. It’s a gift that will wow the receiver without costing you the small fortune a handbag would. A wallet falls within that hyper-specific sub-category of gifting items that are pragmatic enough to be perceived as well-thought-out but still offer a hint of personalization.

There are so many choices to pick from, so whether it’s time you upgraded your wallet or you need to gift the perfect SLG, we’ve got you covered. Below, you’ll find over a dozen picks, from card cases and small wallets to tiny chain coin purses; there’s something for everyone!

I was looking at the Dior wallet the other day as a Christmas gift to myself. It’s so pretty, but I’m afraid the light leather would get dirty quickly. I may go see if my local boutique has it.

Love this. Recently bought a Fendi Baguette Card Case. Love the light blue and puffy motif. The pop of color makes me smile.
