Hi Everyone,
We are expecting our first child in January. I normally carry a small purse (minimalist) so I am drawn to small bags. I am not sure that I am being realistic for what size bag that I really need. I would prefer something of "average" size for an "average" packer. I am going to try to breastfeed, but may have to resort to formula.
I am looking for a few bags -
1) One for quick errands (going to grocery store, Target, etc) - out about an hour or so.
2) One for longer outings (like a trip to the outlet mall, etc)
Here are my preferences -
* Tote or a backpack style (not a fan of messengers)
* Stroller loops would be great (we have a P3)
* Prefer a zip top closure
* Prefer something that can stand alone
* Prefer something stylish (rather than sporty), durable
These are only preferences, so I may be willing to compromise if it's a really great bag otherwise. I don't really have a budget in mind. I will probably be buying from the Baby Bags board (already a member!).
Any suggestions for either (or both) bags would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!
