My Parazul Diaper Bag and a Handbag Giveaway

I know it sounds vain but a cute diaper bag was one thing I wanted to splurge on. Everyone told me not to because it's just going to get popped, peed, milk, and all sorts of crap on it... And I get it. I really do. But to me a diaper bag is kind of like a mother's right to feel like a classy woman... Amongst all of the crap (literally).

The problem is my husband doesn't always agree with my reasoning, he's more of a "practical" kind of guy aka B.O.R.I.N.G. So I tried to find a compromise. I won a $150 gift card from Pottery Barn Kids. I found an ADORABLE diaper bag for about $120. The only problem... It was white. The brown one was about $180. So... Do I splurge on the extra $30? Why not?

I didn't want to jump at the opportunity quite yet because there were so many other things at that store I could use my gift card for. I decided to wait it out... And good thing I did!

Parazul contacted me about their beautiful designer purses. Oh how I've dreamed of one day owning a designer purse... I didn't even care it was bought it in the way back of one of those stores in New York... Whatever! So Parazul was another designer label I had to add to my wish list.

Originally I was going to do a giveaway of one of their Classic Bag purses but when I opened the box of my review item and saw what was inside I gasped! Oh, it was one of their bags alright... Their gorgeous pink scarf bag actually. But what did this giant bag translate to for me? That's right... DIAPER BAG!What I love: It's versatile as in it can be used as an all day bag, a briefcase or... My favorite: Stylish diaper bag.

I decided to model it for you so you could get the full effect. The silk scarf I thought was a nice touch. My husband said it'll be great if Spawnie isn't a boy but I corrected him... Boy or girl this pink bag is still going to work!The main large portion of the bag is made with modern canvas so it's easy to wipe off and clean, and the inside is lined with a beautiful bright blue. Lots of room for diapers, bottles, and whatever else I decide to put in there... Toys, food, a small child, it'll all fit!Now, my personal downside: While it's beautiful, apparently durable, and easy to clean, it is a lot of money for something that will probably get poop on it. I worry I'm going to be very protective of it and most likely get a cheaper diaper bag as a back up and use the nice one for special occasions.
While this bag retails for $350 it's a HUGE step up from the bag I was looking at from PBK, and getting another designer tote from someplace like Louis Vuitton is going to cost you about $1000 and up! So if you're into designer bags for a better price, check Parazul: An exciting new line of handbags and accessories out!
