More info, opinion..30 years CC and former cop.
You will have 6 holsters for every gun you own.

Womens handbags are risky for CC, bag is stolen, gun lost.

Pocket holsters OK, make sure gun & or holster don't fall out.

Ankle hostlers NG unless you are a gymnast, still not the best.

IWB, make sure you have belt which has hole in the right spot, and allows for growth.

OWB, stiff belt, width right for loops little slop.

So what if you are always checking it. Just scratching an itch.

Forget small of the back, anytime you are sitting it becomes a problem. Then there is the question left hand or right, no matter which you shoot with.

Practice, Practice with an empty gun.

Just a question, I really only own skirts, and most of them don’t have pockets, however, I was considering getting a thigh holster? What would you consider about that?

As a licensed LEO, I would suggest looking into some law enforcement equipment sites also one of my favorites is Botachtactical.com (sorry, not too good doing links) as well as sportsmansguide.com they are both really good at getting you started and have frequent sales of holsters and shooting supplies.

Ankle holsters may be the best mode of carry if you are driving a vehicle for a living such as a cabdriver. Keeping the gun in a glove compartment or a console is not a good idea if you’re suddenly carjacked. You give them the car and also the gun? Also, most conventional holsters will be under your seatbelt which also is not a good idea.
