Obviously proper training and proficiency are paramount, but your decisions are exactly that, yours.
Don't allow others and especially total strangers, dictate to you what is right or wrong for you... especially when it comes to your personal rights and freedoms, just sayin.

Nothing wrong with a .380 if that is what you want, but I would suggest finding a range and trying a few out prior to making your decision as Cheapshooter advised.

You might also like to look at something like a 'Thunderwear' holster considering your usual attire.
Warm months here in MO when I'm not at work I use one with shorts and the occasional t-shirt and it works well, but there are many similar options out there.
The decision to carry is in fact a lifestyle change, take your time there's no rush.
