What you need are child bearing hips....
I used to chuckle at the idea of a man purse...up til I started carrying one. Sure it might not be fashionable, but man is it useful. Wallet, flashlight, knife, pen, water bottle, etc etc. I barely even use my pockets anymore. Luckily I don't really care about being fashionable.
I use a sling bag style (I'm having Slingblade flashbacks saying "sling bag" mhmmmm)

I wasnt going to suggest this because I dont want to come off as a smartass, but after reading all the posts before mine I cant resist. I can not believe nobody has suggested this. Just staple your pants to your waist! Thats what a real man would do. I used to do it, until my wife started complaining about the blood stains. 
LMAO Im just joking! 
Sorry for being a smartass but I had to say it.
I use the a soft leather belt, sounds weird I know, but it stretches just a tiny bit so you can make it really tight but it wont hurt or be uncomfortable and it wont let your pants move. The trick to get it as tight as you can, without cutting yourself in half, that way the leather acts like a rubber band. The problem with most belts, not tactical belts or gun belts just regular belts, is that they arnt stiff or soft, so they stretch slowly as you move around throughout the day and as a result your pants wiggle until they are around your ankles. Im a heavy set guy though so Im not sure if this will work on a skinny person. I usually carry two knives, and one is usually a ZT 350 or ZT 200 (soon will be a 300) and a wallet, keys w/mini light on the key chain, small flashlight, and whatever else I have on me and my pants havent budged since I switched to this style of belt. Well Good Luck, I hope you get it all sorted out.

Years ago I read about some MP who was found dead is disgraceful circumstances: He was wearing pants and suspenders.
This mystified us Yanks. We thought he was wearing trousers. And also those straps that hang trousers from shoulders. What's disgraceful about that?
We didnt get the joke until it was culturally translated: He was wearing panties and a garter belt.

Yes, I wonder how many Brits drinking in US bars get into trouble when they say they're "just going outside to roll a fag" (hand-rolling a cigarette)!

The thought of a guy wearing pants and suspenders gives me the creeps.
Another one - sitting on your fanny

He was also self-asphixiating! Still, that's politicians for you!

Yes, I remember being very shocked at some of the language in a former girlfriend's copy of Jane Fonda's workouut book that just happened to fall open!

That's got to be the winner!
Couldn't help noticing the stool in the Opinel pic. Did the guy really need a stool to get onto the first rung of the ladder?! Maybe his suspenders were too tight!

On this side of the pond, a girls fanny rides behind her.
Across the puddle a girls fanny is less dorsal and more ventral. As it were.
Learning that gave me a whole new understanding of that old dirty book, Fanny Hill.

Have you considered EDCing a belt?
A belt can actually be a handy EDC tool if you make your own out of paracord...
