I am about three months away from welcoming my perfect little fashionista/super-athlete/future CEO into the world and mama needs a diaper bag that doesn’t scream “I love pastels and changing diapers!” Considering this new bag is going to be traveling with me everywhere, I want one I ‘m not gonna get sick of and that goes with everything - without being boring. So today - because us pregos are moody and are entitled to change our minds every day - my favorite diaper bag is the kate spade Classic Noel Henry Baby Bag. It comes with a changing pad and is a great handbag even after the baby’s diaper days are long gone. Now, at $425 it may be a bit expensive for some, so I put it on my baby shower registry just in case someone is feeling generous!

There are some people that follow the trends of the celebrities in this crazy world of pop culture. Since working in a “bag” related industry I have now dubbed myself a “bag dork”. You catch yourself looking at all of the handbags (Pocketbook for your East-coasters) and wondering what brand they are carrying.  During the week, I do have my favorite television shows and catch myself looking at the accessories that the actors/actresses are wearing.

Now that the writer’s strike is over, most of all of the our favorite television shows are back on the air! YAY! Desperate Housewives is one of my favorite drama shows, you can never get enough of the gossiping girls on Wisteria Lane.

During the episode on April 20, “In Buddy’s Eyes”, Gabrielle Solis (Eva Longoria-Parker) was carrying a clutch by Rafe. The specific clutch she was carrying was called the Lotus Joy Long Frame Clutch Flower Patent in Black.

 

Speaking of Rafē, the pregnant Jessica Alba was spotted carrying the Lotus Coco Large Tote in White this week in Beverly Hills.  She has been seen carrying the same product at the beginning of her pregnancy! It is good to know that they do not use them once, then discard because of the season!

What I love about these diaper bags is that they can go well beyond motherhood.  These bags are just as fashionable as they are functional.  Trista Baby states that they are … “committed to bringing amazingly fashionable, incredibly functional and undeniably original solutions to the stylish mom, all while doing our part to make Mother Nature proud”.

It seems like every week there’s a celebrity who has decided to come out with their own clothing label and the ones who usually find success seem to be musicians. It’s natural I suppose to have music that you enjoy relate to a certain lifestyle or image and continue that self-expression in what you wear. My personal favorite celebrity designer would have to be Gwen Stefani and her L.A.M.B. line. Though you can’t see these handbags on eBags.com just yet, here’s some eye candy for you… Other notable names that you can find on eBags.com include Jessica Simpson, Fergie, and Trista Sutter of “The Bachelorette” fame and new mom to son Max. One of Jessica’s bags that I’m crushing on right now is the Kane Cut-Out Satchel. Look how cute this is! Speaking of cute, what mom doesn’t want need a cute diaper bag? Trista Sutter has designed a line of eco-friendly diaper bags called Trista Baby, sold exclusively at eBags.com. You may have seen this stunner, the Tulip Bloom Tote, in US Weekly or Redbook. The newest member to eBags’ celebrity designer list is Fergie who has partnered with Kipling for a line creatively called Fergie for Kipling. Much like how my girl Gwen originally starting designing bags for LeSportsac, Fergie has created a line that is heavily influenced by her own style and music. One of my favorites is the Trailblazer Tote… No matter if your inspiration comes from more traditional designers or up and coming multi-hyphenate celebrities, the most important thing is to rock your own style. Who’s your favorite designer? Who do you wish had their own clothing and handbag line?

desire - (def) to wish or long for; crave; want. I already have three diaper bags. Common sense would tell me that I do not need another one. But I desire this one. I crave this Fleurville Sling Tote. New parents are demanding fashion-conscious diaper bags to tote the endless list of babe necessities, and Fleurville has hit the trend spot on. Is it a diaper bag? Is it a handbag? Is it a sassy little tote for a weekend romp? It is all of that and more - and now I must convince my husband to build a new shelf in the closet for my growing collection. (there are almost a dozen colors in this model alone!!!)
