I was shopping at Saks two weeks ago and the Fendi Fortune Lady Bug Wallet caught my eye. I was indecisive about whether or not to buy it, because I’m not really in the market for a wallet (my mother bought me a Roberta di Camerino wallet for my birthday last month, which she picked-up on a recent trip to Rome. Roberta makes gorgeous over-sized black velvet wallets that can go years before showing any wear!). I went home to look up the wallet online and noticed that it was up on Bluefly, but sold out. Like the diligent shopper I am, I went to the Fendi store the other day and asked why it was already on Bluefly and was told “it’s probably a fake.” Uhhhh…okk….I don’t think that Bluefly has fakes, but alas, I was also told that this was a limited edition for resort 2010 and that the wallet I was holding was their last one so I caved and bought it. When I showed my mother the wallet, her eyes rolled, but I think it’s really cute! Love that it says “Fendi Fortune” and even though I’m not big on the Zucca print, the ladybug makes up for it. What do you think about this wallet?
The Fendi Red Zucca Spalmati Ladybug Zip Continental Wallet retails for $445 and in addition to the Ladybug version, there’s one with a Fishbone and one with a Four-Leaf Clover. Check your local department store for availability as stock is dwindling on all three, but Saks, Bloomingdale’s, and Fendi boutiques all stock these wallets.
