Should i change from a fannypack to a purse?

I'm an 18 year old girl. I'm a senior in high school. And I wear a fanny pack around everyday instead of carrying a purse. But my friends kind of discourage me from it. They say I'm either too old or too pretty to wear a fanny pack. So what should I do??...

Go out and buy a purse to fit in or should I keep on wearing my fanny pack?? Any advice at all would be amazing! thanks

Keep the fanny pack !! - you're just setting a new trend, nothing wrong with it at all !!

you are being you. being yourself and that is awesome keep wearing it and if your friends are discouraging you wearing it then you really should do what you want not what they want you to do. trust me on this you are way better.

You should keep it if you like it. But fanny packs ARE kinda weird.

Be yourself (:

If you feel good then do it

Fu*kk What People got to Sayy (:

I think you should just be your self ...
wear whatever you want it will show your real charactar
and 4 your frndz I think they should accept you as you r...that's what frndz are 4

I hope this was the question you're talking about... I don't see any others. but I think you should wear it. if you like it better than a purse then I don't see why it should be a problem. I like boys clothes better than girls so that's what I wear to school. I don't see anything wrong with it, as long as you're comfotable with it.

WHAT IS A FANNY PACK??? wow their are a lot of awnsers on here.. but yeah a fanny pack sound kinda gay.. no offense =).. go buy a purse if people are going to make that much of a big deal about it...

I definitly think you shouldnt listen to what others think! if YOU like the fanny pack than wear it!! on the other hand if you do care what people think, I personally do not like fanny packs..they are kinda outdated =/ but if you like it by all means you rock that fanny pack!!! hahahaha dont do something just to fit in tho. be differnt. be yourself =)

I find it odd that anyone picks you out because the in thing these days is to be different from others, some people strive to be different. You have a unique characteristic which builds up who you are. I don't think it's cool for your friends to pick at you about it and maybe next time they say something negative about it you could say something like I look after me, and you can look after you, how does that sound? because I mean its your business, you wearing a fanny pack does absolutely no harm. Just because you are a pretty young girl doesn't mean you automatically aren't allowed to wear certain things. If you're going somewhere fancy you could maybe try a purse but I mean for everyday use, continue to use your fanny pack, stand up for yourself and show that you're strong. If you stop wearing it your friends will probley start taking advantage of that and order you to do other things and eventually they will have complete control over you and trust me, you don't want that. Stand up for yourself, make a statement that it's okay wear something that not a lot of others wear. This is you and if people aren't willing to accept that than they aren't even worth your time in the first place.

Your friends need to learn to grow up a bit. That's like someone saying your too old for chocolate! Loads of adults wear those things, especially while travelling or moving about a lot. Also, it's not a crime to stand out from the croud. Just be yourself and don't let them bully you into doing stuff you don't want to. If everyone was supposed to be the same, we would have been born robots. So don't be afraid to be different because it's what makes you who you are. =o)

matador 23...I thought that was HILARIOUS!

honestly...it depends on what you care about more...fitting in and what people think, or being who you are.

you seem to be able to pull off the fanny pack. if that's you, then rock that thing. I could NEVER do that.

Just do what you are more comfortable with doing. I personally carry a purse. But hey, do what you want... I saw what you wrote to emodancer.. I definately think you should keep yur fanny pack and be proud and confident!

I don't even know what a fanny pack is well you can hit back at me and tell me what it is. But like what most people sed just keep it. Its up to you newayz.
hope the otherz helped but I have no idea what that thing is. Purse will do for me.

hmm, maybe you should keep the fanny pak!
If people laugh that get a purse, but other than that if people don't say anything than you are good to go!!! Sometimes it takes time for people to adjust to the new look!!!

I agree with most of the other people on here. You should decide which you want better. Do what feels best. Because I think fanny packs are cool. I would wear one. And be like Hulk Hogan. Lol but seriously if you like the fanny pack, go with it. I do that stuff to try and set trends and because I like to do that. Ya Know?

lol wear the fanny pack if you want... screw what other people think... why would you want to fit in... its always funner to stand out and be a unique individual ... I have a fanny pack... I tend to forget stuff I put down... lol but I'd say you want to wear the fanny pack do it and tell them to suck it if they don't like it... but if you want to get a purse go for it... but the fanny pack is cute!!!

lol I have to say if you want to wear that fanny pack wear it and wear it proud.. its up to you if you want to just go with it

ah the age old question 'to fanny pack or not to fanny pack?' jk

ask yourself what you do with something else. like if your hair is out, and everyone else is wearing it in a bimbo ponytail, then do you go bimbo, or leave your hair out?

because then you know what you'd do... and there's your answer :D

you don't need me, or anyone else to tell you who to be; or what to wear, say, think or do. be yourself; everyone else is taken.

luv rach

Okay, for one, ALWAYS do what you want and what makes you feel comfortable. If you like wearing a fanny pack, GO AHEAD :D If it's convenient for you, then why not, right?

For me, when I was in college, all the girls would be going around with their pretty little purses that are so tiny you can't fit anything important in there. AND you had to hold them all the time or if you put it down somewhere you have to keep watching it to make sure no one snatches it... it's an inconvenience I'd rather not have. Either those, or they'd have their OVERLY LARGE Gucci or Luis Vitton bags that are too big for the things you have with you. Seriously, they have a problem with gauging size of their purses for their belongings or for the convenience of the occasion.

So anyway I opted for a medium-sized cotton sling bag - I have all the things I need with me, I don't have to hold a goofy shiny purse, and I'm still considered not old fashioned. So really, just do what feels comfortable with you.

I personaly dont like them but so what if you really want to keep it then just face your friends and tell them you are going to keep it weather the like it or not! dont back down to others!

Where the fanny pack. be yourself, do what you want, common if they are your friends they will let you be, Was there something wrong witht the dance group on MTv that were called Fanny Pack and also wore them on public tV.
This is what I dislike most about people, they all want to be the same, look the same, do the same thing, F that be yourself, stick out and be proud, you could even decorate it into a cool style, and who know;s make more and sell them.
