Mrs. Smith’s Diaper Bag-Review and Coupon Code Giveaway-CLOSED

Before I had kids, I never really carried a purse. My few essentials (lip gloss, ID and a bit of cash) all fit easily into my pocket and toting around a purse just seemed like way too much hassle for me. So when I had kids, I was shocked by how many items I needed to have with me at all times to ensure my boys’ comfort. Diapers, bottles, snacks, toys…the list was endless. I found a few bags that worked fairly well for toting around the many accessories of motherhood but no matter how hard I tried, I just couldn’t keep the bag organized. When I needed a sippy cup for Benjamin or a Hot Wheels car to keep Zackary amused, I invariably ended up rooting around in the bottom of the bag searching for the item I needed.

I had heard great things about these stylish and useful bags in the past and I was thrilled when I was given a chance to test one out for myself.

I received the incredible Elite diaper bag in Pitch to review. When the bag arrived, the first thing I noticed was the fashionable faux croc material of the sleek black bag, which could easily be wiped clean with a damp cloth as needed. I also loved the long strap the bag featured; I have a big pet peeve of diaper bags with short straps that have to be carried by hand instead of thrown over the shoulder. Diaper bags are heavy; I don’t want to have to tote one around in my hand all the time! I was even more delighted when I learned that the strap could quickly and easily be taken apart and clipped onto the back of the bag to convert it into a backpack! My favourite two styles of bags are backpacks and messenger bags and the Elite Mrs. Smith’s Diaper Bag had provided both with one convertible design!

There were pockets and pouches galore in this diaper bag and I couldn’t wait to start filling them up. Convenient outer pockets provided padded protection for my sunglasses and cell phone. A wider side pocket provided the perfect place for my makeup essentials like a touch-up mirror, perfume and lip balm. Finally, a large, slim back pocket worked great for stashing a picture book to keep the boys entertained.

The inside of the bag was just as easy to organize. With six inner pockets along the interior of the bag, there was a place for absolutely everything! I used the small zippered pocket to hold my change and emergency cash. Insulated pouches I filled with sippy cups and bottles. Diapers, wipes, toys and other kid essentials fit easily into the large roomy main compartment. But the most ingenious aspect of the Mrs. Smith Diaper Bag was still to come!

How often does a parent try to pack a refreshing snack for their child on a hot summer day only to have that snack turn to mush in an overstuffed diaper bag? The Mrs. Smith’s Diaper Bag solves that problem once and for all with an absolutely sensational insulated pull-out drawer in the bottom of the diaper bag! With three compartments to keep snacks separate and an insulated design to ensure freshness, taking food on the go is no longer a hassle!

Top off all the amazing features with a full-sized changing pad that hides conveniently in the generous flap of the bag, metal hardware for unparalleled durability and even curved zipper pulls for easy opening and closing and you have what can really only be described as the ultimate diaper bag. This bag is really called the Elite bag for a reason!

mrs smiths diaper bag with pull-out drawerMy favourite feature was definitely the padded cell phone pocket and sunglasses pouch. It can be so easy for these items to get scratched in a regular diaper bag, but the separate compartments with a soft lined interior ensured that my delicate items were safe and sound no matter how much the bag got tossed around!

There really is no such thing as a bag that’s just for a mother or just for a baby once you become a parent. Every bag becomes, out of necessity, a family bag. But only the Mrs. Smith’s Diaper Bag provides the versatility, the space and the organization to actually function effectively as a bag that can hold every family essential and then tops it all off with a fashion sense that Mom is sure to love. If you’re tired of cluttered, unattractive and unfunctional diaper bags, check out these unbelievable bags for yourself. A Mrs. Smith’s Diaper Bag is the only diaper bag you’ll ever need!

    I’ve been looking at bags for over 2weeks now. I’m exhausted. I live in hickville so theres nothing around me, so everything is done overt the internet and watching utube video reviews.
    This bag has sparked my attention and now many of my friends via me asking them to view mrs smiths site. My favorite feature on this bag? Theres many. The insulated drawer definately!
    The fact that I have a toddler with food allergies means carrying his food around with me.and the fact that I can put an ice pack in there and it will act like a cooler because its insulated. And won’t leak into my bag! The cell phone patch thats padded is wonderful. Because many other bags have mommy pockets with magnetic closures which is abig no-no for smart phones! Mrs smith’s is not! Allllllll the insulated pockets inside is needed. We are in florida. I just hope I can fit what I need in the bag. :)
