Question for the mom's out there...

My diaper bag ripped because I have way too much stuff...2 kids will do that to you. So I am in the market for a big, durable and functional diaper bag- and it doesn't hurt if it's cute too! Any ideas? What are your favorite diaper bags?

___________________________________________________________________

Thanks everyone for your input...it really helped! I have finally decided which diaper bag to go with. After hearing that Maere has had her bag for 2 1/2 years and Amy has had her same one for almost a year and both of them still look brand new (I saw Maere's the other day), I decided I would check out their recommendation and go to verabradley.com. And not only did I find a print I really liked, the price was only $69...they're normally $92!! Plus, the bag has tons of room and outside pockets for bottles, cell phone, etc. So I was sold. I figured I would way rather fork out the $70 and have a good bag for years to come. Here it is:
Cute, huh? Well thanks everyone. I'm so excited to finally get my money's worth out of a diaper bag!

Oooh!! Me too, me too! I hope you get some good ideas. Everyone told me to get Skip-Hop bags but I tried two different styles and the main pocket was way too small on both of them (although I loved all the little pockets for organizing). So there's my two cents - skip the Skip-Hop.

I know what you mean. Who would have known that two kids would need so much stuff! If your like me your prepaired for anything. I have a Bumble Bag, the Natalie Multiples Diaper Bag. I really like it, theres alot of room with 4 bottle/cup holders and an awsome changing pad. Plus the material is very durable and cleans up great. Let me know what you find out, its always good to now what brands people like out there.

my favorite diaper bags are.... CHEAP diaper bags for that reason exactly. They get worn out and rip!! My advice... buy a cheap bag and use it till it rips and start all over again.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE my Vera Bradley bag - (expensive - my mother-in-law bought it for me). You can machine wash them and they are the perfect size. Love it. Highly recommend it. And they are DALING. All sorts of colors and patterns.

I agree with Lindsey...$100.00 for a bag?? Not worth it. I like my sam moon one. $14.00 or something and just as cute as others.

Okay...so they are a little pricey ($92...but! The "retiring" patterns are $55) I do have a weakness for Vera Bradley but hear me out: there is plenty of room, I have washed it in the washer multiple times, it always comes out looking great, and after 2 1/2 years, it is still in great condition. I'm all about saving money, too, but for the price you pay, it will last you...good luck! P.S. you can look at verabradley.com (they call it Baby Bag) and I know they sell the diaper bags at Tabula Rusa in Trolley

I got a Vera Bradly (thanks to Maere) before Millie was born and I still love it! It doesn't look worn at all...almost one year later. Most of my friends change their bags every couple of months and I still really like my original. For what it's worth...

Darling bag! I'm glad you took my advice :)

Weed Family said...

Yea! I am all smiles for you :) Great decision. And I love, love, love that pattern. It's timeless. Congrats!
