Does having a girl always have to be associated with pink and having a boy, blue? Do "moms" have to look a certain way? So mini skirts might need to be a little less mini, and high heels may need to be a little less high but being a mommy of one, two..three or however many kids should not take away our ability to be stylish, keep up with trends, even when it comes to baby bags! It's bad enough that we carry around every possible item one might need to battle minor or major meltdowns, explosions and more, so why must we do so in a container plastered with Dora, Thomas, Micky, Mini and friends...? I don't know! So many moms have broken from this pattern and have set out to find well designed baby bags and so have I.
A few years ago, when I was having my first baby, I bought two diaper bags, one that the dude could carry and one that I could carry (Mia Bossi Maria Diaper Bag in Tangerine Orange). Although they have both been great, I have become tired of mine because its actually really big and hard to carry around with one kid a so I expect it to be even harder with a baby and a toddler (plus stroller and whatever else). So as I invest in another bag which I will carry around daily for at least two years, I am considering size, durability, design and of course aesthetic; these come with a price tag ranging from $150 to $1000.
