Hi friends! I have been neglecting my blog this summer and it's honestly been a much needed break.
But I'm back and refreshed and have some fun things planned for fall :) I always wonder what people carry in their diaper bags and what some of their favorite products are to pack in there so I thought I would share mine. Eloise is almost two, so I don't need as much for her as I used to, but still like carry both of our stuff in one bag. I would love to hear your favorites in the comments.
Whirlwind Diaper Bag: I am so obsessed with this diaper bag. It's beautifully made from 100% cotton canvas and genuine leather, super light weight and has a ton of space and organization. The back has a compartment that my laptop fits perfectly in for bigger trips. I love that it's a backpack design because I'm out with Eloise by myself a lot and chasing a two year old around is hard work (two hands are necessary). I love finding bags that I will be able to use after I'm not carrying Eloise's stuff around. I have it in wheat and you can shop for it here.
for Eloise:
Parasol Co. diapers & wipes: I actually wrote a blog review on how much we love this company and their products. You can check that out here. They also offer a free trial pack so you can test them out before purchasing, you just pay the shipping.
Snack Cup: if you know Eloise, you know she is always carrying around a snack :)
Sippy Cup: this one doesn't leak, is easy to clean and cheap enough to replace when needed.
Camel Back Water Bottle: I'm weird and don't like it mix containers so I have a water bottle that's only for water. Eloise learned it pretty quickly at around 7 months. She's almost 2 and we still have the same water bottle. It's been through a lot... it's been dropped, thrown, left in a hot car and it hasn't cracked or dented. We just replace the mouth piece and straw every few months.
OXO Storage Containers: I keep berries, cheese, cut up sandwiches, etc in these containers and put them in her insulated lunch box when we take longer trips.
Carrier: I usually bring a carrier with, my favorite is my sling from WildBird
Tablet: Eloise loves to watch movies on long car rides, but I usually use it as last resort. We love the Amazon Kid Fire tablet for her.
for me:
Ray Ban Sunglasses: I love the classic look of Ray Bans. They are expensive, but last a long time and have great customer service. I've had my aviators for 5 year and they are in great condition. I also have these ones and love them.
Emmy & I clutch: These are made by the sweets mama, Stephanie. I keep all my things in here to keep it separate from all of E's stuff, so I can grab and go easily if I need to leave her bag with somebody else or at home. I'm obsessing over indigo dyed things lately, but she has a bunch of different fabrics in her Etsy shop. You can customize hardware, fabric, and the leather :).
And we pack all the snacks. all. the. snacks. Food takes up the most space in my bag when we leave the house.
This is so perfect! It is so chic looking and has enough space to put everything in it. Just perfect! I would try to order one for myself too.
