I was recently introduced to a super cute line called Baby Star. They are an environmentally friendly company based in Oregon offering apparel and accessories that are all mixes of 100% cotton and formaldehyde-free fabrics. There website is really appealing and they have a lot to offer the shopper such as fabulous weekly specials, a newsletter you can sign up for and an ambassador program where you share discount cards and earn 30% commission credit.
I received a Rock the Tote in Kaleidoscope to check out. The bag is formaldehyde-free and AZO-free making it safe for the environment and my baby. It has a large zipper pouch on the inside that I put my diapers in and the BPA-free lime green wipe case that comes with the bag. There are also 2 large pouch pockets on the inside to store your cell phone or a water bottle. The bag is very generously sized on the inside and I can even fit my laptop in it.
I do have to admit though that I have a love hate relationship with tote bags because I always end up dumping them but the Rock the Tote has a great magnetic closure at the top that keeps all my stuff snugly inside. I love the bright fabric prints that are very true to the pictures on the website and the woven cotton handle is generous enough to wear on my shoulder without being restrictive. I also like this bag as a beach bag and plan to use it as that as well.
On the down side the bag does not come with a changing pad which I did find to be disappointing because now a days it is hard to find a diaper bag that does not come with that and many other accessories. I do find that I still need to carry a purse with this diaper bag since I like my stuff more compartmentalized which can be a bit annoying at times. I have 3 kids to contend with that I need all the free handedness I can get.
