I was very excited to see this great Diaper Bag Tote by Lands’ End on sale for $14.99!  I’ve been looking for a diaper bag to carry with our first son, who is due in just a few weeks.  Bags that look like, well, diaper bags, haven’t really appealed to me.  I do love the classic canvas totes by Lands’ End, however.

This diaper bag is just a souped-up version of the original Lands’ End tote bag.  It features the same sturdy 100% cotton canvas and secure zip-top, but with extra features such as 6 inside mesh pockets for organizing your gear and a changing pad.  It measures 17 1/2″Wx13 1/2″HX6″D and is available with soft mint, light sky blue, or pastel pink trim.  Best of all, it doesn’t look like a diaper bag, so it will pull double duty as a convenient tote.

The Lands’ End Diaper Bag Tote is regularly $29.50 but is currently on sale for $14.99.  Mongramming is available for $5.00 extra.  You can purchase one at landsend.com.

Here’s a fun and practical diaper bag that also helps a good cause. This March of Dimes Bloom Tote Bag by JP Lizzy features 2 open interior pockets, a large zippered pocket, pockets for bottles, and exterior side pockets perfect for stashing things like keys and phones that you need to keep handy while on the go. It comes with a very cute coordinating changing pad. I think this style could easily be converted for use as a chic tote bag after your child leaves diapers. Best of all, 10% of proceeds go to the March of Dimes. You can purchase one of these stylish bags for $68 at TheFrogAndThePrincess.com.

If your little one loves to carry things around with her like mine does, this Fuschia Bunny Purse from Zid Zid would no doubt be much appreciated and well loved.  It si the perfect size for transporting toys or books. The brightly colored bag is decorated with a sweet little embroidered rabbit that will no doubt charm any little girl. The bag itself is made from 100% cotton and is easy to clean.  The corners of the bag are decorated with coins for an extra bit of flair, and the brown strap provides a nice contrast to the fuschia body.  I really like the simple design of this very basic, yet very endearing bag.

You can purchase one of these fun bags for $34 at LaLaLing.com.  This would make a wonderful gift for a birthday, Valentine’s Day, or any other special occasion.

Handbags, diaper bags, backpacks, or totes, all have a way of becoming the Bermuda Triangle for all of ours and our kids’ stuff. I raised three children and we were always on the road going somewhere, so diaper bags were just a part of our gear. I remember having to dig around these multi-layered, multi-pocketed diaper bags for just one thing.

This Diaper Bag Details by Skip Hop is a very good idea. You still need a diaper bag for the bigger items (blankets, extra clothes, etc.) but you could use this smaller bag for just the important essentials that you may need to access right away.

View this item at SkipHop.com, where it is priced at $45 and comes in Ocean Stripe, Flora, and Black Geo.

If you are a purse addict who wants a diaper bag that won’t be immediately recognizable as such, you might want to check out these luxury bags from Not Rational.  Be warned, however, that you must also be willing to foot the hefty $700 price tag.  What justifies the price?  Each bag is made from high-quality leather and features four outside pockets as well as inside pouches to keep your child’s necessities handy and well-organized.  A matching leather changing pad is also included for diaper changes on the go, as are a pacifier and a bottle.  The bag is accented with antique brass hardware, and comes complete with a removable strap, and adjustable handles.  A zipper at the top keeps everything secure.

Overall, the Kelly Charcoal Lux Leather Diaper Bag is a gorgeous bag, but definitely a status-symbol item.  If you are willing to pay the steep price, you can purchase one at RonRobinson.com.

This is one of the most useful diaper bags I’ve seen. The Jessica Messenger Backpack Diaper Bag in Lemon Lime Dot looks sophisticated and classy. What’s more, it can be worn four different ways: as a backpack, as a shoulder bag, across the chest, or on the stroller (using the included stroller straps). It is made of waterproof/stainproof material, a must for diaper bags. It comes with a changing pad and tons of compartments for wipes, bottles, cell phone, you name it. Mom looks good while carrying it as well.

Here’s another offering in the quickly-growing collection of man-geared diaper bags.  Recently featured in People Magazine and popular with celebrity families such as that of Felicity Huffman and her husband, the Guy Infant Gear (GIG) Messenger Bag has a lot to offer dads on the go.  This sleek black bag looks like any other hip messenger bag, so no one even needs to know that it is full of diapers and other baby accessories. It is also well-designed to hold everything you need from baby essentials to dad essentials like cell phone, ipod, keys, etc.  Outside pockets keep things handy.

I think this bag is so non-diaper bag like in its design that it will have an extended life far beyond your child’s days in diapers.  You can purchase one for $115 at LaLaLing.com.  It would make a great gift for a dad-to-be, too.
