For a while after having my son, who is now 13, I carried diaper bags from the baby store or a backpack. Yikes! It painful to vision those moments. The more I got out with my son, I learned that just because I was a new mom I should not be using frumpy, flimsy, non-stylish diaper bags. What was I thinking? First of all, I didn’t realize that designer, stylish diaper bags could really be affordable. I assumed they were all $500+. I was wrong.
For example, there’s this Perry Mackin diaper bag. This bag, called the OLIVER BLUE, is $168 and is everything a new mom needs!
This Perry Mackin diaper bag is called the Oliver and it features:
- a top zipper closure system makes for easy access
- water resistant lining
- 6 Internal elastic band pockets
- changing pad
- one zipper front pocket and two side pockets (great for bottle)
- double handles with a 7″ drop
- removable adjustable shoulder strap is 48″ when fully extended
- First, there’s the side pockets. I carry water with me everywhere I go. The side pockets on this bag easily hold a water bottle or a baby bottle or sippy cup.
- Then, there’s the outside zipper pocket. This pocket is where I keep my phone, chapstick, and tissues. You know, the important things.
- I personally don’t have much use for the 6 inside pockets because I’m not using this bag as a diaper bag since my kids are older, but the 6 interior pockets are just right for teething toys, cell phone, a bag of snacks, and a packet of wipes just to name a few things.
- The shoulder strap. I LOVE the adjustable strap. I am short so I can’t wear a bag that does not have an adjustable shoulder strap. The shoulder strap allows the bag to hand on stroller handle bars. Just don’t let go of the stroller!
- The bag is 16″ x 13″ x 5.5″ allowing my MacBook Pro to slide right in while leaving room for my wallet and a notebook. Now, you see why I love this diaper bag even though I don’t have babies anymore?
- One more thing that I appreciate about this diaper bag is that the lining is water resistant. No more scrubbing.. just wipe and dry.
