A really nice changing bag

14 replies

jemimafuddleduck · 25/11/2020 22:03

I love my handbags and want to treat myself to a really good looking changing bag for when I have my baby next spring.

Ideally don't want to spend more than £150 max and would like it to be stylish. Having said that I'm feeling like a backpack might be the way to go for practicality.

At the moment I'm swaying towards the Tiba and Marl backpacks or Babymel Robyn leather backpacks.

What am I missing? Any recommendations?

I had this for all my DC

I loved it then and I will always love it (over 10 years old now) I really really love it and still use it as a handbag.

I've got the skip hop Greenwich in a dusky pink and absolutely love it. So roomy and it looks lovely, very practical. I've been using it a year and it still looks great and I'll use it for a long time yet.

Some of the jem and bea ones might be in budget with their Black Friday offer

Definitely a Tina and Marl backpack. I love mine and use it as a normal backpack too. Very stylish and lots of space.

Second vote for the skip hop Greenwich in pink, so pretty but very practical too.

I will check out your suggestions.

Definitely a Jem and Bea. There is a great website called MummyandMe I think that do great deals on them. Their designer used to work for Mulberry and you can tell! Such great bags - I bought one after having twins when we had a rucksack too!

DH and I had different tastes in stuff so I got a colourful Tiba and Marl and he got a much larger minimalist one from StorksacTravel. We’ve only ever used the latter one as it’s a lot more practical with more space, pockets and compartments.

jemimafuddleduck · 26/11/2020 19:18

@JoJoSM2 which colourful tiba and marl??

don't get a changing bag. get a nice bag with room instead. changing bags are just mostly ugly overpriced bags with some extra compartments. nothing else.

I think my T&M is a version of this one from 3 years ago:

This is the one that DH picked and we’ve found to be more spacious/useful:
