I've seen both at similar prices and can't decide. Any thoughts on which one you prefer? How does the quality compare?

ETA: Myhabit has the Babymel on sale right now for $48- 15% with code Member15. http://www.myhabit.com/ref=wl_em_mh_but_it_0#page=b&dept=kids&sale=A30NGANBW9ILV9&ref=qd_d_bc_b

Updating with a comparison.
The bags are similar size and weight. The Versa is definitely more purse-like and the details are more refined. The edging is less casual and the hardware is shiny brass vs chunky black zipper on the BabyMel. The Versa strap is more of a webbed nylon and the BabyMel strap feels like a softer cotton blend.

The Babymel is definitely more casual but I slightly prefer the pocket arrangement on it.

Both carry more than enough for one child and are big enough for cloth diapers. I think I'm going to keep the BabyMel because I really don't like the brass hardware on the Versa and the Babymel was about $25 cheaper.
