It's just what I needed. It has plenty slots for credit cards and such. Many little hidden pockets to tuck things out of the way in too. The side "bill-fold" compartment is the perfect size for US cash. Behind the coin purse, there's a pocket that's handy to use when you're in a hurry and don't want to open up the wallet. It also has 2 closure snaps. 1 for when you have a moderate amount of things in the wallet, and 1 that will make it easy to close when the wallet is stuffed.
 Not too small. Not too big. In fact, it looks just like the wallet most women carried before 1970. This ladies wallet is made by the same company(Buxton)that made many of them. My grandmother had a blue Buxton exactly like this one and she kept cherry coughdrops in the coin purse! Grandmother had a keen eye for classic style, and as it turns out, she was right about cod-liver oil too!

2 YEAR UPDATE:I emptied it the other day to clean it and I noticed that it was no worse for the wear. I just went over it with a cloth dipped in water in which I diluted a tiny bit of Joy dish detergent in and let it dry in a window. IT LOOKED LIKE NEW! This is a very well made product.

3 YEAR UPDATE: The pocket on the back behind the coin purse is beginning to split, about 1/2" along the seam in the upper left corner next to the grommet. I liked it enough to replace it with the same. It's not easy to find a wallet this small that has an open pocket to throw in receipts and cash when I'm in a rush, and a coin purse that doesn't require opening up the wallet. Also, the snap closure on the coin purse never became loose with wear.

6 YEAR UPDATE: I used it for another three years. I purchased a new one, but gave it to a friend and kept my old one. The small split never got worse and didn't affect it's usefulness. Unfortunately, the clasps on the coin purse recently loosened a bit and change would escape. I decided to use a large pair of pliers to bend one of the clasps to tighten it and broke it off. It held up well for six years, and if I had used a small needle-nose pliers, I'd probably still be using it.

I've replaced it with the smaller Buxton Women's Mini Tri-Fold Wallet (also called the Hudson Mini Tri-Fold by Buxton) because I wanted something that will fit in a pocket when I don't want to carry a purse. I still recommend the Heiress French Purse and will probably purchase another one, as it holds more and the easy access coin purse and pocket behind it make it very convenient to use.
