Find me a hip flask (I'm female)

I'd like a hip flask for the purpose of transporting a nightcap when on away for the night with my friends.

The only 'lady' hip flasks I can find are glittery or bejewelled which is really not my style. I'm after something pretty but not chavvy.

All suggestions welcome. Thanks!

I have a nice hip flask from Aspinal. Think it was about £50.

I have a couple , a leather bound one , a steel engraved one , JD one , a mini dads army one, and a steel cylinder one.
They all hold different amounts the last 2 only hold about 30mls ( one pub measure is 25mls )
So as well as getting the look that you want you need to make sure it holds the amount you want and is practical, there is no point getting a 10ml or 500ml if they are not right for your needs.

Lol I am not a booze hound I just like hip flasks .

Oh actually I rather like that one. No particular requirement, I just didn't want one that looks like it should belong to an elderly gentleman!

Oh just to add , don't be to fussed about ones that come with a funnel, it's impossible to see how full any him flask is when your trying to fill it .so you end up spilling some of your tipple

Buy a syringe with clear mil marks, pour your tipple into a short tumbler and use the syringe to 'suck and squrit '

Ah yes, I quite like the standard stainless steel - inoffensive, reasonably classy, does the job. Also easy to wash up properly if you need to. If I don't use a clear spirit I sometimes want to give it a good wash which I couldn't if I had a leather one.
