Finally! At long last! (Huzzah!) The great hunt is over…and I?m not referring to the hunt to find the perfect product to tame the out-of-control baby hairs in my bangs, because they have been extra unruly lately (if you happen to have a recommendation, please help a homie out).
No, I?m referring to my hunt for a new wallet/wristlet/smart phone holder thingamabober-doohickey.
I’ve been looking for one big enough (but not too big) to hold my behemoth of an iPhone, credit cards, spare change, keys, cat treats (#ccl) and a tube of lipgloss (very important) because I?m trying to streamline before BG arrives, and I want something that I can just toss into a diaper bag. And when I?m out and about, and she?s in one of those baby carrier contraptions around my middle, with a wristlet, I?ll be able to keep my hands relatively free.
The real challenge has been finding one big enough to fit my phablet iPhone 6+, but the Grand Street Layton by Kate Spade does (originally $228, marked down to $79!). It has 12 small pockets for business and credit cards, four big pockets (including two zippered exterior ones, which are where I keep my keys), a zippered interior compartment for spare change, and the main pocket, which is roomy enough for a big-@ss phone and a full-sized tube of NARS gloss.

The whole thing isn’t exactly petite, because, hello! — it fits a lot of stuff. It?s a little larger than 4×8 inches, which is kinda big for a wristlet, but it’s...
