Stella McCartney for LeSportSac

And I thought Stella McCartney’s line for H&M was exciting! I’ve been a McCartney fan ever since her days at Chloe and I’m absolutely loving the 'Mum' Tote which is part of the limited edition line of travel bags McCartney designed for LeSportSac. With all the stories in the news these days about chemicals and toxins in baby products, I think it’s especially great that the tote is earth-friendly and crafted from 100% recycled polyester. It’s also super lightweight and packed with pockets (four exterior slip pockets, a zip pocket, two insulated pockets for bottles inside, a separate zip pouch and a changing pad is also included), making it perfect for organizing all of your essentials…there's even a tiny stuffed bunny to entertain your tot! The Stella McCartney for LeSportsac collection is available Nordstrom.

Envirosax for Kids

envirosaximage.jpg

Environmentally-friendly products are all the rage now, and I do try to do my part, when I can. I’ve always bought my reusable, but very ugly, grocery bags at the grocery store, but I had been planning to try the very trendy Envirosax after they were profiled in Bag Snob a few months ago. I love that they are super convenient and come in a variety of stylish prints! And now, Envirosax has an adorable kids’ series. The kids’ collection includes six bags with whimsical prints in bright colors. Each bag features a different animal character. These cute bags are a great and easy way to teach your kids to start caring for the environment. They can be used for shopping or just as totes. I know when we travel, I always bring a variety of tote bags with toys and books for my son, so they will come in handy for trips. Envirosax for kids are $8.50 and available here.

Dwell Studio Offers New Designs & Accessories


Dwell Studio Travel Case Small - Transportation ($28) and Bottle Holder - Charlotte ($20)

I heart everything from Dwell Studio. Their fresh, clean designs are always in fabulous bright colors. For spring Dwell not only added four new designs: Charlotte, Dots, Gio, and Transportation, but added accessory styles too. Now, you can take your favorite patterns in the form of bottle holders, changing pads, travel cases, totes, and weekenders. While I may not carry the tote (a little to thematic for a mommy bag), I would love to add a travel case to any bag. Travel cases contain the mess of liquids or crackers and are great kid’s beauty bags for trips. Someone gave a monogrammed one to my daughter when she was born and I never take a vacation without it. Our small one holds bath soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, brush, hair bows, and lotion. So, I just solved your latest gift dilemma.

Louis Vuitton for Kids

lvmonogramsp08.jpglvmonosp08.jpg

Well, not really for kids, but who else would wear this bag?! Here is the full review from Bag Snob Tina...Apparently there is no end to the barrage of atrocious bags from Louis Vuitton. But let's be fair here for a minute, I do appreciate the attempt at creativity with the LV monogram - which clearly MJ himself is sick of. And the overall design of the bags is not completely heinous (I prefer the shape of the smaller one on the right), now stick on a couple of cutsey but useless plastic buttons, stitch the monogram in yellow on top of all of Barbie's favorite colors and you have a bag totally suitable for Jemina, our very chic 7 year old God-daughter. Unfortunately the 4 figure price tag will not go over so well with her mother but her Grandmere might be persuaded. Available this Spring. Louis Vuitton available online at eLUXURY.com

Mia Bossi Audrey Diaper Bag

lg_audrey_sand.jpg

While diaper bags don't scream "Mom" anymore, this bag is one of the most discreet diaper bags I have seen. Keep your savvy style and add a touch of practicality. The Audrey by Mia Bossi looks like a fabulous tote for any woman on the outside, but is a very functional diaper bag, computer case, or purse on the inside. The outside is made of beautiful Italian Barolo leather with printed leather snakeskin trim. Inside you find washable faux fur changing pad, zip-in and zip-out lining (additional insert for computer or briefcase available), and several pockets and comparments to store the necessities. The straps are detachable making it a snap to get around the stroller. Bag Size: 13.5"(H) x 7.5"(W) x 19"(L). Comes in glow, black, and sand (shown). Audrey ($1200) available at Mia Bossi.

Sissi Rossi Safety Pin Bag

sissirossi_safetypintote.jpg

I never use diaper bags so I am always looking for regular bags that are appropriate and adorable. Look at this tote from Sissi Rossi, perfect for the Bag Snob Mommy with the totally fitting safety pin detail!! It is big enough for everything and has the helpful and handy outside zipper for phone, keys and other hard to find items. The handle is also long enough to go under the arm comfortably which is of utmost importance for mommies. It is also reinforced so it won't dig into your shoulder (it doesn't matter how hard we try, mommy bags always weigh a ton!!!). It is nappa leather so the bag itself is pretty light and I love the soft texture, everything that goes near my babies have to be soft and cushiony!! This easy to wear tote is a no brainer, it will go with everything so one less thing to think about before he rush out the door. At Barneys for $545.

Anya Hindmarch Washbag

anyahindmarch_washbag.jpg

Suffer no more with diaper bags that kill any style you have with its attempt to be cutsie. There are some acceptable diaper bags out there, like the one by Anya Hindmarch ($305) that I have, but anything that resembles a diaper bag is no good for the Bag Snob mom in you. I got the canvas and patent trim Anya bag to use for the summer which worked out great for beach and outdoor activities. The multiple pockets are perfect for my sunglasses, wallet and magazines, while the drippy, messy baby stuff all goes inside. The bag comes with a "washbag" as she calls it, which is a large zipper pouch (12.5" X 9.5") for diapers, wipes and changing pad (included). It is big enough to fit everything I need except snacks, a jacket and blanket. That means, this bag became anya_diaperbag.jpgmy baby essentials bag and I ended up just grabbing this pouch and throwing it in any one of my large bags, turning them into perfect "diaper bags". I love this new system and have been super organized and diaper bag free ever since!! I have a canvas one with leather trim, which works perfectly, but there is a nylon with patent trim, and as you know is even friendlier for baby stuff. The online store is sold out of these but you can call the Anya Hindmarch store nearest you to see if they have any in stock. Regular price is $145 but if you can find one they are on sale for $102. I am sure they will have more for the new season but any large pouch like this will work just as well (the shape of the bag is important, it needs to be one large compartment with a gusset so it can fit more). It will change your life and preserve your oh-so-important style!

Valentino Histoire for Z

Photo: People

The hot Valentino Histoire bag found its way into Zahara Jolie-Pitt's closet. Her collection (one bag) turned many women, who would kill to own one of the latest "it" bags, jealous. This bag was custom made for Z. I guess that is one of the perks of being a Celeb Baby. Before you Mom Snobs start searching the internet for one for your princess, Valentino is not entering the children's accessory business. Sorry to disappoint. Apparently, a sample had been accidentally cut in a tiny size awhile back. Valentino made it for Z, had it delivered to Angelina the next day, and voila you have a great photo op. I think it is absolutely adorable. We all know that daughters want to be just like their moms. I just can't help but think about poor Shiloh who didn't get one, not to mention is rarely photographed with her mom. Why does she always make a point to favor the adopted kids? Can't wait to see the sibling rivalry this creates. Most parents started saving for college at this age, but Angelina better start saving for Shiloh's therapy.

For you Snobby Mommies, the Valentino Histoire ($1595) at Saks.

Scout: Petunia Pickle Bottom for Him

journeyppb.jpgjourneyppbinside.jpg
Journey Diaper Bag

Here is a diaper back worthy enough for the rugged outdoorsman. Indiana Jones is jealous he can’t carry such a cool tote. Scout, the newest line from Petunia Pickle Bottom, is both handsome and functional. The rustic and hardy design surpasses all previous daddy diaper bags such as The Diaper Dude. The bag comes with two interchangeable interior linings: a water-resistant diaper bag lining and a padded laptop lining. A few snaps swap the diaper bag lining for the padded laptop lining, so your husband can be ready to head to the office on a moments notice. The diaper bag lining has several interior pockets for organizing. The exterior bottle pockets snap off and another one can be placed inside the bag. The padded laptop lining also has two interior pockets. Each Scout bag comes with a custom antique wipes case. The antique hardware and debossed logo finish off the look of this dapper bag. Even the most masculine hubby will be ready to hit the trail with the kids. Check for retailers at Petunia Pickle Bottom.

The Diaper Clutch

Left: The Diaper Clutch Closed, Right: With the flap open

Do you ever find yourself at a restaurant needing to change your baby's diaper and you either lug your entire diaper bag with you or fumble around with a lose diaper and wipes? And then all the diners stare at you knowing that you are carrying a child around with a full diaper. I usually try to avoid grossing people out whenever possible. Or when you're on your way out the door and need to grab everything quickly, you yearn for something that is all contained (I'm always changing bags so this is an issue). This diaper clutch is the answer. There are lots of diaper clutches out there but I find that this one suits all my needs. My favorite part is that it is designed to hold an entire pack of wipes already inside (it is one of those Huggies travel soft packs with the cover so you can easily replenish when you're out). I find this especially handy for short flights or road trips because of the amount of diapers it holds and the full pack of wipes. It is a soft unstructured design so it can fit 5 large size diapers and when it's empty it does not take up a lot of room in your bag. There is even enough room for diaper rash cream. It comes in a variety of cute designs and is only $19.99 at TheDiaperClutch.com.

Diaper Bags from Barneys

Not Rational Diaper Bag (left) and Dante Beatrix, Inc (right)

Mom Snobs, get out your kleenex. Let's shed a few tears for this tragic mishap from Not Rational. Not Rational??? This bag is completely irrational especially for $595. Whoever thought navy blue patent leather was a good idea for a diaper bag? The only positive is that it comes with a changing pad and patent leather does cleans easily. I don't know who will spit-up on it first, you or your baby.

Don't put your kleenex down yet. The nylon Smiley Face Diaper Bag from Dante Beatrix, Inc. is on the same level. At least it is only $95. Barneys must sell these bags to someone. Aren't you curious who they could be?

Mia Bossi

Now, dry your eyes. Here is a bag to really smile about. I highly recommend looking at the Mia Bossi diaper bags. These stylish, chic bags are far more rational, ranging in price from $365-$515. Perfect for any Mom Snob who wants fashion and function.

No Mom Snob wants to sacrifice style for organization! Use the totally hip diaper clutch wallet from Anniefrannie's. This piece is stylish and functional. It holds 2-3 diapers (2 larger size or 3 smaller size) and a travel pack of wipes. Even better there is a key hook attachment, interior pocket for driver's license and credit cards that no Mom Snob can be without, and an exterior pocket for your mobile phone. Fabric options range from traditional to mod and each wallet is detailed with ribbon. Just Grab and Go. Available at Lollipop Kisses $38.

MARC by Marc Jacobs Baby Bag

marcbabytote.png


No one wants to be seen in a Winnie the Pooh diaper bag. Just because you're a mom doesn't mean style is no longer a necessity in your life. And just because you have the Winnie the Pooh diaper bag and you are carrying your LV Speedy 30 doesn't mean the Winnie the Pooh diaper bag still isn't hideous. This MARC baby tote is funtional and chic and can be used as a regular tote when your little ones are out of diapers. It is on sale for only $344 at Bergdorf Goodman so I am getting one. Do I need another bag? I actually don't use diaper bags but now that I'm going to have 2 kids, the mess that my nice bags will become will make my cry so this is definitely a good investment.
