5 Sustainable Diaper Bags That Are Actually Stylish
A diaper bag is sure to start replacing your favorite purses once your little one arrives, and luckily we’re living in a time with options as chic as they are sustainable. When searching for a great diaper bag to call your own, it’s important to consider a few factors. You’ll want a bag that’s easy and comfortable to carry, cleans up swiftly, and fits all of your baby essentials (and hopefully some of yours as well!). You might also consider gender neutrality based on which parent or parents are going to be carrying it most frequently.
