... a really super dooper nice nappy bag!
My birthday is coming up, and for once I actually have an idea for a present. I am after a really nice nappy bag - one that you wouldn't think is a nappy bag, but just looks like a big handbag.
I've been suggested Oi Oi, which I have been looking at and quite like the look of some, but I was wondering if any of you have any nice brands, etc for me to check out?
TIA

I have a OiOi that I love, but given the money I would have gone with a Petunia Pickle Bottom.

I have an isoki nappy bag that I looooooovvveeee, but i haven't actually used it yet  Oh, except for the day before our wedding when I stayed at mums house to pack a few things in - I asked bub first, he said he didn't mind ><;;
What I like most about it is it is reversable so it becomes daddy friendly too

Storksak! I have the "Julie" bag and I love it : )
People are always surprised to find out it is a nappy bag, as they just think its my handbag.

I love love love my il tutto "mia" nappy bag
whilst it's a little on the exy side it's absolutely gorgeous and does not look like a nappy bag at all. It has insulated pockets on both of the side pockets and comes with an insulated bottle bag, a wet cloth bag, and a change mat. It also has lots of pockets inside and when you have finished using the bag as a nappy bag the whole inside of the bag can be zipped out to make a big open bag IYKWIM?!? It also has clips on either side to clip on to the pram!!  The only downside is that if you carry the bag on its own it can be a little heavy if carrying bubs as well! Happy Shopping

There are some really lovely ones out there. I have an Isoki which I love, but some of the others you've been suggested are great too. One of the reasons I got my Isoki is that it has a durable metal zip - it's pretty tough, and built to last! But some say it feels a bit heavy. It comes with some smaller bags too.
Keep in mind that you might be able to get a mainstream big tote and then keep some things in it, like a change clutch (I know Isoki has them, and I remember seeing other brands at the last expo I went to), and other small colourful bags to keep things organised if you want.
I could rave about my Isoki some more, but there are other good brands out there too, so happy looking! |

I second the Oi Oi, I have 2 of them, one is a really nice black and white one and the other is a red leather one that just looks like a big hand bag

I have 2 vanchi nappy bags. I love them. I have one that is just like a traditional nappy bag. Its made from a beautiful green fabric and i always get comments of this one. The other is a tan handbag type of nappy bag. I saw another one the other day that i really want too!!
