The word "petite" _anywhere_ in the description precludes its being manly ;)

When I need lots of stuff, including lunch and water, I take my
backpack.

For medium amounts, I might wear a fanny pack. (Over the butt, as it
should be worn.)

For small amounts, I carry a basic black Possum(tm) Handy Pouch
threaded through the side of my loin cloth; no hat and no heels.

Eagle Creek has some manly looking stuff (in travel shops), but I use
my old decrepit nylon Eddie Bauer daypack. It's too small for a laptop
so it won't be targetted.

I kept forgetting the Eagle Creek thing, it was, however, perfect size
and features for a small-format notebook, pens, cellphone, passport
etc. I still use it when travelling, but it's too easy for the
absent-minded like me to leave it hanging from the back of a chair.


Best regards,

I use an "Il Bisonte" (Bison leather, very strong) briefcase. It has a shoulder
strap.

http://www.ilbisonte.com/briefcases.html (second one from the right)

It's good for papers, large enough for file folders etc. Also glasses, phone
etc. Has a couple of small compartments for that sort of stuff. Also has a
number of slots for pens. Not very good for lunch, unless you make very thin
sandwiches.

Heh -
When I take a trip with the fambly, I use a backpack, lke a day pack
kind of thing. It has a bazillion pockets, plus a laptop sling, and even
a teeny hole in the top if I wanted to leave the Walkman inside the top
pocket and poke the headphones thru.

But I have the feeling that you're looking for an everyday thing.

I don't use one myself, but one of my buds has this leather fanny pack
thing. Good for a notepad, Palm Pilot, his glasses, and some meds that
he needs to carry. I think there's room for a waterbottle, too. Doesn't
look too fey, and it seems to work for him.

Of course, you could get one of these if you're lookign for an excuse to
keep your beer handy:

I really like those old Uncle Mikes fanny packs - the ones with the
velcro along the strap line. It's about as low key carry as I have seen.
I don't think they are made anymore though.
