Most clothing I wear has pockets so I don't worry. I carry huge suitcases for purses. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wallet#post-1729986 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 07:18:56 +0000 amellor 1729986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's fine Sarah.&nbsp;</p> <p>I carry my wallet the same way, and for the same reasons as you - I like to be hands free.&nbsp;</p> <p>But I think you have overlooked another reason - it also think it looks much nicer to have (especially) a nice wallet neatly tucked into your waistband (or belt) with just the top showing than to have a bulge in one of your pockets; or worse having the heavy wallet (or a purse strap) pulling your nice dress out of shape. </p> <p>Absolutely the same for guys - As you said, many guys carry their wallets this way, but again, it looks waaay nicer than having their trousers pulled out of shape, or a giant "tumor" on their ass!&nbsp;</p> <p>I have a collection of wide belts to wear with dresses solely for the purpose of having somewhere to put my stuff (phone in bra, wallet and keys under belt - nothing to carry! :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wallet#post-1689857 Tue, 05 Jul 2016 20:47:33 +0000 Sarah 1689857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Never had any issue with it falling out. I tend to wear wider belts though.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wallet#post-1689740 Tue, 05 Jul 2016 17:08:10 +0000 Jane 1689740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For weekends, I have a wallet on a wrist strap. </p> <p>It's good to carry less, I think, because it puts less strain on back muscles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wallet#post-1689737 Tue, 05 Jul 2016 17:05:04 +0000 Peri 1689737@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know what a tradie is, but how can a person look masculine wearing a skirt or a dress? And anyway, if you don't mind the look, stick with what works for you.<br />&nbsp;<br />But I would think worrying about a wallet falling about of a belt or waistband would be quite equally annoying to carrying something. I'm with the others...wallet on a wrist strap or a tiny cross-body bag.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wallet#post-1689691 Tue, 05 Jul 2016 15:01:51 +0000 Staysfit 1689691@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the less carried the better! I have been purchasing smaller handbags as I get older and putting less inside them. If I could get away with something tucked in my waistband I would happily do it. Unfortunately I always carry sunglasses, and some prescription rescue meds for migraines, so I need something large enough for these items at a minimum. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wallet#post-1689586 Tue, 05 Jul 2016 12:41:10 +0000 Robin 1689586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>An I say, what's wrong with looking masculine? Seriously, if you feel okay about how it looks, and it works for you, end of story. The only reason I can think of for doing something different is if you work in a profession where people expect you to look and act a certain way in order to be considered "professional." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wallet#post-1689582 Tue, 05 Jul 2016 12:32:08 +0000 retailgirl 1689582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What about a cross body or a crossbody wallet? Or pockets if all your clothes have them? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wallet#post-1689578 Tue, 05 Jul 2016 12:28:26 +0000 Bonnie 1689578@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had a friend who was robbed of her purse and she never carried one after that. She just kept a bit of cash, keys,&nbsp;and her drivers license in her pocket. She managed to make that work for her. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wallet#post-1689512 Tue, 05 Jul 2016 08:02:48 +0000 rachylou 1689512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I say, don't know what a tradie is. And also am curious as to how you keep your wallet from falling out?</p> <p>But in any case, I'm with you 100%. I am completely hands free. I wear a hip purse, as opposed to a fanny pack. Or a crossbody if I must. I only carry handbags for special outings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wallet#post-1689509 Tue, 05 Jul 2016 07:12:09 +0000 Sarah 1689509@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hate carrying a handbag, so I like to keep my wallet in the waistband of my skirts, or under the belt when I wear a dress. My partner is always saying that this looks masculine and "I look like a tradie". What do you all think.....I really don't want to carry a handbag around! </p>
