Ju-Ju-Be bags, cute and sassy with a touch of attitude, are made to be tough, with a not-so-old-fashioned feel to them. They’re clearly a statement bag for a trendy mami with fun patterns and styles that help you feel like you’re not toting around a diaper bag. I like this fun, flowery travel diaper bag with machine-washable fabric, an antimicrobial liner and quick-access outer pockets.

A really cool and fashionable medium-sized diaper bag, the best part about it that it has tons of pockets—11 pockets, in fact—and mamás love pockets. Pockets make it easier to organize everything in the proper location so when we need to fiddle around with one hand, while holding a crying and impatient baby, we can easily locate that binky or favorite toy without even putting bebé down. This sleek bag has a pretty pattern and the ever-popular convertible strap that allows you to change it from a shoulder to a stroller bag, quickly and easily.

What mami wouldn’t want the opportunity to look like Heidi Klum after having a baby? With her collection of diaper bags, you can feel as fabulous as the former Victoria Secrets model herself while keeping everything from your changing pad to your designer sunglasses in place. Reasonably priced and durable, Heidi Klum bags look and feel nice as a more structured type of diaper bag instead of the brightly color, flowery options usually available to new moms.

More than pretty to look at, I’m in love with the Asian motif designs that encompass a majority of this line of trendy but specifically-styled bags that are referred to as “overnight” bags. With more than enough space for an overnight outing, this bag has the cutest accessories. Everything matches the sleek outer design while keeping in line with its functionality.

This diaper bag converts from a shoulder bag to a stroller bag. This was the diaper bag I carried while my son was an infant, and well into his toddler days. I’ll admit although it was expensive purchase, I appreciated that it looked like a real purse and not a typical diaper bag. It has plenty of interior and exterior pockets, two-way zip closure and stroller clips, which can be a lifesaver for any mami.

Finally, a male-oriented diaper bag that actually has the clear look and functionality of a “dad bag.” While this bag still maintains the essential shape and storage space for bebé’s needs, dad won’t mind toting it around for a day out with papi.
