Finding a diaper bag that is cute and functional is such a challenge as a mom. I had 5 different diaper bags with my first, yes, 5! Each one had a different purpose but none could handle it all. With my second, I chose a diaper bag that I really liked around $80 and it got about a year of use out of it. Not bad at all but it started to break down.
This time around, I was obsessed with finding the perfect bag that can last years and not break down under the pressure of a newborn, toddler, and mom life. A diaper bag that could be used as a purse if needed and you guys, I’ve finally found the golden nugget. The Lily Jade Shaylee Diaper Bag.
Shaylee Diaper Bag
I have to admit, I squealed with excitement when I opened the box. The Shaylee diaper bag was on back order so I had to wait about a month and a half for it to arrive and it was so worth it. I snagged it in Galena & Gold which is such a unique color combo that I’ve had multiple ask me about it. Most people are astounded to know it’s a diaper bag and not a purse(yet!).
I’m sure you’re thinking in your head right now, how can you use this diaper bag as a purse? Well, my friends, Lily Jade diaper bags come with a removable insert. So when you’re not using it as a diaper bag, you can, in fact, use it as a purse by pulling the insert out. Score!
What’s inside?
However, with the insert, you have tons of pockets and nooks to stuff it full of baby gear.We will be using disposable diapers for the first two months or so but after that will be switch over to cloth diapers. Finding a diaper bag that can comfortably fit multiple cloth diapers would typically be a challenge. Currently, I’ve packed my Shaylee diaper bag full with wipes, a paci, 3 wraps, 3 outfits, bamboobies nursing pads, nipple cream, 2 extra diapers just in case there’s a mishap on the way home, and there’s still room in the bag.
I think my favorite part is the fact that all the crumbs from snackies will fall in the insert and not the actual bag. It’s machine washable too which make keeping the bag clean easy as pie.
Wearability
Out of two kids, I’ve worn many different diaper bags. Ones that you throw on your shoulder like a purse, ones that you wear like a messenger bag, and ones that are backpack styles. Each one was great for different outings but none could do what the other could. Lily Jade has created an all in one bag giving you the option to wear this diaper bag how you want, any day of the week. With their crossbody strap and different loops, you can swap the way you wear it in second. The versatility of this bag is gold!
Colors & Pricing
If you’re not a fan of the Galena(silver) color like I am, Lily Jade offers this bag in five other colors(Grey, Blush, Black, Brandy, and Camel). I personally struggled to choose between the camel and the galena but eventually gave way to the beautiful silver shade. Of course, they have several other bags if you’re not a fan of the Shaylee.
Yes, these diaper bags are expensive, but you have to look at it in a different light. How many hundreds of dollars you’re willing to drop on a designer bag that you’ve had your eye on? Why would you spend any less on a diaper bag that you will use for possibly years and for more than one purpose?
The Lily Jade Shaylee, as well as their other bags, are high-quality leather bags with a current yet timeless design. They are boasting with so many perks that you should never question the price as they are the designer diaper bag of your dreams.And the bags are just pretty. Not to mention, if I added up all of the money I’ve spent on other diaper bags the cost of this bag would be a steal!
Good leather never goes out of style, and this bag is beautiful! When I first saw the picture I couldn’t believe it was actually a diaper bag!
That bag is so beautiful! Diaper bags are so different from what they used to be. My diaper bag was a primary colored horror show. LOL
That is just gorgeous! I love it! A far cry from the gaudy diaper bags of my day! Heck I would carry this as a regular bg!
I wish I could go back and have a prettier diaper bag when my kids were older. I love that this one could totally transition into a purse.
That’s really super cute but it is the cutest when it is on your back. Adorable. I haven’t used a diaper bag in 30 years but now I want one! 🙂
That is a beautiful diaper bag. My sister is pregnant and she would love this bag. I love that it has tons of pockets and can be worn on the shoulder or as a back bag
I love this diaper bag and the fact that you can put in on your back so your hands are free. How many times have you struggled with the diaper bag on one arm and trying to pick your baby up in the other only to have the bag bump them. *raises hand* This diaper bag would have prevented that from happening.
That is such a nice diaper bag. I wish I would have had one of these when I had my girls. I would use this as a purse even! I love it that much.
Love this! I will recommend this to my sister who just gave birth. I like the diaper bags these days, so pretty!
I love that this looks like a regular purse . . . you could even carry it after your baby is grown! The organization pockets inside seem really handy for keeping all your little one’s stuff within easy reach.
It is a really cute bag! I love the color too; it blends in nicely.
I love this, this is my kind of diaper bag. I learned early on the importance of a good diaper bag. My first one was not that great. I didn’t know that I would quit my purse once I became a Mom to a baby. This bag is the perfect blend of what I would want. It is stylish and you can put it on your back. Yes, hands-free.
Wow, diaper bags have come along way since I mine were little. This bag you couldn’t tell was a diaper bag or a high-end designer handbag….sersiously. Beautiful. I bet it will last a long while, the quality looks great.
This sounds like a wonderful diaper bag. What a neat idea. This is the perfect blend of comfort and style.
This diaper bag is sooooo pretty! I had no idea that you could buy something so stylish like that!
