I need it, I need it, I need it.

And yet I can't justify spending 100+ on a diaper bag when they make $40 ones (albeit in less appealing fabrics).

The thing about these bags is what if you're wearing a skirt with florals or some other totally clashing pattern? Seems impractical

not for me! It's usually on the stroller anyway and I tend to wear denim and black or black and black or brown and brown so my bag is the only flashy thing about me.

Yeah, I wouldn't treat it as a handbag, and think how it must match. It would just add to the stress of getting dressed.

They really are nice, but I also wouldn't be able to justify spending $100 on a diaper bag. maybe for my first baby when I'm planning on having more kids down the line to get more use out of it.

Or you can just buy one for the same price from the comfort of your home on ebay.

I got a super cool messenger bag at Target for $17 that doubles as a purse, and kid/baby diaper bag. everyone compliments me on it. and it carries well, lots of pockets.

I can't relate. I thought my $12 bargain Lands End backpack diaper bag, bought on sale at their outlet (I had to remove someone's initials but other than that it was perfect) was the best thing since... babies. Took us through 2 babies, too! And now, it can be used as a back pack. Neutral bordeaux color.

cute, but it doesn't even come with a changing pad? Also what about the fabric on the outside. Is it wipeable?

Very cute fabrics though.

I feel the same, but from my experience they don't last too long. The one I use now a friend won it for me at a chinese auction. She put a ticket in having me in mind. Isn't that sweet?

I don't use the hospital one 'cause I hate looking like a Similac ad. Also it doesn't fit all my stuff or have a special "mama pocket" that I didn't realize how much I need until I saw the Ju Ju Be one.

I wish I liked Petunia Pickle Bottom, but they just aren't my style. I know people love them though. What I really like about this bag is that it zippers, but isn't a back pack.

It does come with a matching changing pad and the material on the bag is some patented teflon like material that wipes clean. They also have lots of compartments to keep organized and use magnets where other bags use velcro. I hate velcro 'cause it is noisy and sticks to sweaters.

Le sigh
