The best travel wallets for women

Off on holiday? Then you’ll want something to keep all your important documents together to make your trip as smooth as possible. Now ladies, we all want something that looks stylish, but first and foremost, thinking about keeping your valuables safe is what you need to be thinking about.

There are plenty of travel wallets on the market to suit all styles and budgets, as well as a range of sizes and materials and those with integrated anti-theft devices. When it comes to cost, you get what you pay for. You don’t have to spend loads for a decent quality travel wallet, but if you want a good looking all –rounder, you may need to spend a bit more for the one that meets all your needs. Many travel wallets now come with RFiD which stops thieves from scanning your credit card information through the wallet, and anti-slash material will help avoid pickpockets getting their hands on your passports. 

There are plenty of sizes and styles to cater to your trip. If you’re travelling solo or for business, a small leather wallet that has room for your cash, passport and boarding pass will be ideal. However, if you’re off on a family holiday or doing a multi-stop journey, then a bigger wallet with space for multiple passports, itineraries, tickets and currency will help you stay organised throughout your trip.

We’ve collated a list of the best travel wallets for women, so that prepping for your holibobs is a hassle-free process (until you have to pack your suitcase, that is).
