When we had our first daughter, my husband convinced me that we only needed a plain, black diaper bag. He wanted something he could use without feeling feminine so we settled on a boring, basic backpack that in no way reflected my personal style. Let’s be honest, he carried it sometimes, but not nearly enough for me to be stuck feeling frumpy every day.

I’m all about supporting dads in parenting, but after 4.5 years of carting around a “man bag”, I’m so excited that I have my first beautiful diaper bag from Lily Jade! It’s perfect for every stage of motherhood and I’m only mad that it took me this long to finally get one.
Here’s what having a Lily Jade bag taught me to look for when picking the perfect diaper bag:
Quality
Your diaper bag has to withstand several years of constant use so it’s important to find something well-made. All Lily Jade bags are constructed of premium grade leathers, have reinforced stitching at critical points, and have a sturdy liner on the inside. Care is put into crafting each bag individually so you know it’s going to last over time with multiple kids.
Appearance
Just because mommies have kids hanging off of us all day doesn’t mean we can’t tote around a cute bag. Every Lily Jade bag is chic, gorgeous, and is an easy way to instantly appear more put together. They come in several colors and styles so you can find exactly what suits you.
Size
Having two kids means a lot of stuff! Snacks, water, wipes, potty seat, a change of clothes, and basic toiletries have to go everywhere we go. My Meggan bag stores all of those items perfectly without looking stuffed or bulky. Lily Jade has a variety of sizes to match your needs.
Versatility
I love that my Lily Jade bag can be worn as a backpack, over my shoulder, or across my body. And since it basically looks like an oversized handbag, I can use it even when I don’t have kids with me. It recently came on a solo flight to California and was the perfect carryon for a two-day trip!
I can’t think of any reason not to love Lily Jade! They have the ultimate diaper bags!
