i keep this hook on my purse strap all the time. i tried wearing it as a bracelet a few times, but that just didn't suit me as i don't ordinarily wear anything on my wrists. i love that i can hang my bag/bags from the hook on a table or chair and not have them sitting on the floor, especially in doctors offices, clinics, hospitals similarly germy feeling places i have to take my dad. i have him using a hook as well (although a different brand) so that he doesn't sit a bag on the table that we're eating at that was just sitting on the floor somewhere else. so glad my friends on facebook encouraged me to try purse hooks and this is an excellent style.
