Never at home. Always at work, where I wear a belt with tools. They have to be accessible. The best work belt is from Duluth Trading, BTW.

I like those Duluth Trading commercials, @Sweetbay magnolia

Definitely no tucking for me. I've never had a waistline, even when I was young and weighed 95 lb. Needless to say, that hasn't improved with age. So no, not gonna tuck, half or otherwise.

I occasionally do a half tuck - but only with soft drapey fabrics like SG's liquid knit.
Just tuck in starting at your belly button and measure a couple of inches on the right and left. Then, just stand in front of the mirror and manipulate the fabric until you have an acceptable drape.
I have a straight up and down shape and long torso. Belts look awful.

Thanks for the instructions, @ALRATIBA. I just love the half tuck on the models and some hosts; however, I always feel uncomfortable with it like everyone will think I forgot to tuck the rest in.

No full tuck ever! I also have a short torso and a thick waist on top of that. Don't need the extra thickness at the waist. I wear lower rise jeans and often tuck to the side or tie at the side.

@ECBGwrote:Ladies, here's Erin from Busbee Style. She's good and understands quality. I love her quiet concerned manner and she isn't "preachy".
Here she shows how to do a "half tuck" (although, the backside is covered).

@ECBG Thank you. I subscribed to her website. I like her but my favorite is Dominique Sachse.

Half tuck now almost always. The reason is that I have a jean initial charm. You hook it on to your jean loop. It dangles down. Very cute. Got plenty of comments when I wear it out.

For me, half tuck, just once in a while. If half, I always blouse over. I might do this if the top is oversized.
Haven't full tucked in a long, long time.

Depends on what I'm wearing and where I am -- sometimes I tuck, sometimes I don't. I've tried the half-tuck, but it always comes off as sloppy on me. I don't wear a belt unless it's dress slacks or skirt that came with a belt (and belt loops).
