The thing about Prada wallets, though, is they’re not just about showing off. Okay, *maybe* a little. But honestly, they’re genuinely well-made. I saw something about “Saffiano leather” being a mainstay, and honestly? Yeah, I get it. That stuff is tough! Like, you can chuck it in your bag with your keys and lip gloss and that random receipt from three months ago, and it’ll still look pretty darn good. That’s a win in my book.
The RealReal has them, which… okay, secondhand luxury. I have *opinions* about secondhand luxury. On one hand, sustainable! Good for the planet! On the other hand, is that *really* an authentic Prada? You gotta be careful, you know? But hey, if you find a good deal and you’re sure it’s legit, go for it!
I also spotted something about “durable nylon designs” at Selfridges. Nylon Prada? Huh. I guess that’s a little more… practical? Maybe? I’m picturing a sporty kind of vibe. I’m usually a leather kinda gal myself, but I guess if you’re, like, constantly hiking or something (who are these people?!), nylon might be the way to go.
And then there’s the logo. Oh, the Prada logo. It’s subtle, but it’s *there*. And everyone knows what it means. It’s a little “I know what’s up” kind of thing. It’s not screaming “I’M RICH,” but it’s definitely whispering “I have taste, and maybe a slightly inflated bank account.”
