I used to just put my stuff into the little pockets in my bag, but have since switched to sort of a pouch which was designed for a phone, but fits everything I need. But where do you put your stuff if you don’t have a bag to put the pouch in? I envy woman for being able to walk around with a bag the size of a phone without looking stupid. Do you always carry a backpack? Or do you put your stuff somewhere else?

Everything I wear is based around practicality which involves a lot carrying capacity. As someone who's a lot on the move, this is my usual kit:

Jeans, right pocket: Snus
Jeans, left pocket: Bluetooth earbud charging box thingy
Jeans, right back pocket: Boarding pass / ticket
Jeans, left back pocket: reserved for trash
Jacket, left front pocket: card holder, in which I also keep receipts
Jacket, left inner pocket: Phone
Jacket, front right pocket: varies. Usually a pack of chewing gum and a pen
Jacket, right inner pocket: Wallet with passport and misc other important stuff
Backpack: Two laptops, a change of clothing, USB battery bank, a bunch of adapters so I can plug in almost anywhere, phone stand, misc access cards, a plastic fork, and a toothbrush. Plenty of room to spare for things I add last minute or pick up along the way.

When I'm only moving locally, it's the same except I don't bring my backpack. And when I'm not flying, I have a small multitool/knife in my right inner jacket pocket instead of my wallet.

Oh, and up until a few hours ago I used to have my sunglasses hanging from a ring that is hanging Frodo-style around my neck. But I realized while I was boarding my plane on my way home that I'd left them in the airport lounge. No time to fetch them, but they weren't particularly expensive.

Two laptops? Is one for work? I have to carry two phones, unfortunately. Work and personal.

One for work, one for everything else, yes.
