baby kaed Jacey diaper bag review

Baby Kaed Jacey diaper bagI am all about bags these days. I even try to match my bag with my outfit.. that is a big deal for me. I’ve been using a beautiful bag from Baby Kaed called the Jacey and what is really great is that because it’s black I can wear it with most outfits. My daughter is 3 years old so I don’t travel with diapers and bottles anymore but I still carry an extra outfit for her wherever we go and the size of this bag is perfect for those of us who have to carry extra outfits, snacks, drinks, a microwave, and a laptop with us wherever we go.

The Jacey from Baby Kaed is a great size at 15 inches wide and 14 inches deep and the large outside pocket holds my over-sized (not because I have too much money in it.. I wish!) wallet and other things I need easy access to like my compact, lipstick, pens, a little notebook, etc.., easily.

A mom’s review of the Olive Shoulder Bag from the Coach Bonnie collection

Coach Bonnie olive shoulder bagAnd now for something different!  Moms this one is for you, just for you!

Being the practical moms that we are it is not every day that we would consider spending $248.00 on a purse, but this is certainly no ordinary purse!  Not only is it by Coach, the materials, construction and detail making this a one of a kind under arm luxury.

This satchel featured in Coach’s Bonnie Collection and inspired by famed Coach designer Bonnie Cashin, exudes quality and class, just what we moms want and deserve, right?  The body of the bag is beautifully supple leather in an Olive Green with accents in apple green leather.  Delicious!  The metal openings are covered with the same apple green leather which is a touch not expected in this price range.Coach Bonnie - Olive Shoulder Bag

The satchel is expandable by about two inches by activating the robust zipper around the bottom.  What do you see but a beautiful inset green leather expansion gusset?  This just gets better and better!

The leather and synthetic strap is removable turning this piece into a clutch that will simply make you feel good!

Of course we can’t forget the interior which is beautifully finished with a zippered pocket and a slide-in pocket.

Don’t forget, moms this one is for you because you cannot get diapers, bottles, fruit juice, or a days’ supply of wet wipes in this bag so you won’t be tempted.

Why I love the Coach Parker Leather Shoulder Bag:

  • The size is perfect for a mom with a toddler.
    Madleyn is 2 so I don't have to carry 3 outfits, diapers, 2 sippies, snacks, etc..

Coachinside I carry 1 change of clothes, a sippy cup, a snack bag, a book, and a toy.  All of these things plus my wallet, phone, and 'accessories' fit nicely in this Parker.

  • One of the outer gusset pockets holds Madelyn's sippy cup and the other holds my iPhone giving me access to two of the most important things I need when I'm out.
  • The 18” handle with 8 1/2” drop makes the bag easy to carry and get into even while I'm carrying Madelyn.
  • I love that the inner slip and zipper pockets in this bag are thin and not bulky so they don't stick out into the bag but give just enough room for storing lipstick, a compact mirror, and even an 8 pack of crayons.
  • The Parker Leather Shoulder Bag is available in rosegold/nickel (shown here) and three solid shades.
  • Overall, the Coach Parker Leather Shoulder Bag is an excellent bag for moms with new babies and toddlers alike and of course for women in general!
