Do You Wear Your Cell on Your Belt?

May 31, 2008

I found myself gawking at Kate Hudson's cute hair on the set of Bride Wars and almost missed that she's wearing her BlackBerry tucked into her shorts.

We've established that most of you like David Beckham's belt clip style, but don't love it on female celebrities like Courteney Cox. The thing is, people usually clip out of necessity or habit — it appears Kate is filming a workout scene so it would be silly for her to tote a purse just for her cell. Do you wear your cell on your waistband or belt?

I used to wear my cell phone on a belt clip, until I noticed that no one on my favorite television shows wear them. Also, I realized that belt clips make you look like you are "answerable" to someone. In foreign countries, only worker bees and servants wear belt clips. The bosses don't wear them because they don't have to answer to anyone.

I wear my work Nextel clip on my belt, because it looks cool on me. I look cool as it is and my awesome and cool appearance would overshadow any percieved notions of nerdiness that would be attributed to the average Joe. Besides, the clip is practical. wearing it in you pocket looks tacky. You'll look like you have a bulge in your pants. I guess it depends on the person and how they wear it. Not all people look nerdy. At least i don't.

I know, before I wanted a clip, but they were so expensive, and plus I prefer hooking my phone on my purse strap - I bought a clip called "smartclip" they are really inexpensive - I love them! AND they come with a light, which comes in handy for dark restaurants or finding the key hole at night. you can buy them here: www.buysmartclip.com

I tend to clip it on my jeans pocket when I am walking or I lay it on the dashboard when driving. I have become completely addicted to my bluetooth wireless. I LOVE being hands free to continue working, on the job or at home.

Nope, never tried it. Never had a reason too really. If I don't want it in my pocket then I just put it in my bag (which I usually have with me).

I've never had too and have never owned a belt clip for my phone. However, I've been informed that my company is getting me a blackberry (cringe, I don't want one), which I might wear during the day (because of the emails)... at the very least I might us the clip and put it on the side of my purse.

I'm a dork. I wear my blackberry every day in a plain black clip case on my waistband or pockets. I'd lose it, forget it, or not hear it otherwise.

A cell phone is a phone, not an accessory. It belongs in your purse, not on your waistband.

i keep my craptastic razr in my purse. and i don't wear belts so that wouldn't really work for me.

Years ago, I had to do it for work. I had this old, GIANT cell phone with Nextel Direct Connect that I was supposed to wear so that people on the other side of our (giant) building could contact me at a moment's notice and vice versa. I only wore it on my belt during work hours, and I still felt like the biggest douche.

Actually, I do. I have a really cute black/white striped Paul Frank case that clips on. Of course, if I had a purse I'd probably put it in that- but the whole guys-with-purses trend is something that I think will never catch on. =P

Only if I have to ... very, very rarely!
