Plus the Tamagotchi... Those 'belt bags' are really nice and perfect for someone like me who hates carrying anything else in my pockets besides my card holder or ultra flat CdG wallet. I think I like the belt even better than the bag itself, though... LOL Now the question is... Where and how much ?

Versace. I'm afraid they don't...

Yeah the belt is nice too. Too bad that's the biggest one. Would've been good to have one twice this size.

Bottega Veneta heard your prayer...

Half fanny pack, half cod piece. I bet Darth Vader had one like it.

Don't like this one quite as much

BV looks really bad, not often that I say that.

Not feeling the fanny packs, whether Versace or BV.

I would just prefer a simple clutch, something like a long wallet or travel wallet, but that is just slightly thicker to allow more than bills/credit cards. I have several of them and will post pics when I have a chance.

In other news, though, I decided to get myself a Porter bag; a Porter canvas/fabric tote from the `City` Line. Very different from their usual black nylon fare (this one is in beige/light brown canvas fabric with vachetta trim). I will upload pics when I can, as it looks MUCH better in person than the pics on the website. Versatile, large pockets, well made, and reasonably priced. Stay tuned for pics.

Nothing looks better than a clutch! Even Jon can't sell me on it.

Currently thinking of the Jansport Right Pack but I'm sure there are better options.

Wtf do you want to fit in there? If it is much more just mobile+cash just take a small messenger. Also, on a second thought, it might not work with the tight jeans look.

Yeah I'm just gonna find a small messenger, thanks. Definitely more versatile. I mostly just like this on an aesthetic level than a practical one!
