When you go out to eat with friends and approach your table, you immediately do some mental math about where you and your pals can put your purses. If it’s a bench situation, you’ll have to squeeze purses in between each person or, heaven forbid, put your bag directly onto the restaurant floor. If you’ve got individual chairs, there’s a chance you might be able to put your purse over the chair, but there are risks associated with that. Someone could grab the purse off your chair without you noticing, for example. It’s time to take the mental mathematics off the menu with a tool called a purse hook.
The best purse hooks attach to whatever table you’re sitting at and allow your purse to dangle underneath the table, without ever touching the floor. These little hooks might not look sturdy, but they’re pretty powerful. Some of our picks have the ability to hold up to 20 lbs. After you’re done using the hook, you can stick the lightweight and compact hanger back into your purse. It won’t add an extra weight to your bag, which no one needs, and can travel with you anywhere.

You won’t need to carry around a giant hook in your purse with this purse hanger.

With a cool black marble pattern, the purse holder manages to be stylish and practical. The other side of the disc is made of rubber, so the hook base won’t slip and slide while it’s supporting your purse. There are 15 fun designs to browse.
