Concealed carry (without printing) of my preferred firearm is impossible unless swaddled in winter clothes.
And I'm a guy... I'm not going to carry a purse...

For us guys, it's called a "murse" (i.e. Man-purse). Mine is a camera bag that can be strapped on my belt. Since I'm an avid photographer, it's doesn't attract more than passing attention.
You may want to check out a Walther PP or Walther PPK in .32ACP. It's slim and small. Very concealable without showing a silhouette. I carry mine in my Murse when I don't have the CZ 83 in it.
