On my travels in the south this past two weeks, I was often in a situation where i didn’t want to lug my big purse around (especially at a booksigning or playing with kids on vacation in unfamiliar surroundings). It’s hard for me TO NOT CARRY A PURSE everywhere i go so I still kept my purse hidden nearby but found these new handy PORTAPOCKETS helped prevent me from clinging to that purse for survival.

PortaPocket® carrying cases give you peace of mind & confidence as you go about your day. https://www.portapocket.com/

PortaPocket® cases are ideal for carrying IDs, cash, cards, keys, cell phones, iPods®, lipstick, jewelry, & just about anything else you can think of that’s small.

I used the larger PortaPocket® Accessory Pockets to carry my camera and my son’s inhaler.
While many of the suggested places the company’s video suggests didn’t work for me, I found the calf and ankle were the least inhibiting. At a public event when I was wearing a pocketless sun dress, I was able to keep my cell phone just a “tickle-point” away on the silent vibrate mode attached to my calf. At the resort property, having velcro access to an extra pocket on my swim bag at the beach made it easy to find items I needed (like room key) quickly without dredging thru wet suits and assorted toys. For safety you can keep the pockets optionally discreet as you can use them under or over your clothing.

PortaPocket's owner and creator sent me a couple varieties of their pockets to try in exchange for my candid, personal review of the product. I received the samples free of charge however no payment was made to conduct the review.
