I just bought one of those Yojiki Nappy Bags – love it!! I take it everywhere, as it comes with a mattress it comes in really handy – its good value!
Some women buy $400 bags and go through them a lot quicker then a nappy bag which you would use for a lot longer. Nothing wrong with wanting a stylish solution.
Hey just reading the comments and saw the Yojiki Nappy Bag mentioned. I bought one last year for my second baby. The Nappy Bag is so compact, but I can fit everything in it I need. Lots of pockets so everything is very organised. I highly recommend it for the price and function. Ive not seen anything like it on the market, and am very glad I found it…
I have three children and am about to have my fourth. I have been carrying a nappy bag for almost 5 years now and have at least another two to go. I bought an OiOi Nappy Bag when my first baby was born and it still looks like new today, practical, functional and at about $180 it seemed little extravagent but I dont regret buting a stylish good quality bag for a second. Think I might convince hubby to treat me to a new one for this bub, am loving the look of the isoki bag!! Why sacrifice style and functionality just because you have a baby!
