I recently was given the opportunity to try out Mrs. Smith’s Diaper bag by Whoda Thought. Wow! “Who Would Of Thought” I would get so excited about a bag. It really is a well designed carry-all bag. Not only do I find this bag fashionable and colourful, it is very well thought out. The bag is big on storage, but the vertical design with many compartments actually makes it look smaller than many other bags on the market.
This innovative diaper bag is available in many different colours and patterns. I like that even though you are a crazy mom with screaming kids in tow-you can still be fashion forward and make a statement.

Now for some technical reviewing. At first glance I realized this bag was going to be different. The first fantastic feature for me is a wide comfortable messenger strap. For any of you who recently saw the Dr. Oz Show on “purses” the best style is always a messenger strap. It helps distribute the weight evenly and causes less back pain. Same deal goes for diaper bags! The really neat thing is that the strap can EASILY be removed, threaded though the back of the bag and re-hooked up to be worn in a backpack style. This is great when you want to carry your little one or strap the bag onto your stroller. Whichever way you decide to use this bag it will always leave your hands free. With just a one-handed pull on the top cover, the velcro will open as well as the zippers. There you will find, within reach, a full body length change pad. which is removable and washable. The top is divided into three thermal lined bottle/sippy cup compartments, a back zippered compartment and a front expandable velcro compartment. Ideal for easy-to-reach items and of course diapers!!
Under the top section there is what I like to refer to as the “lower floor”. This is accessible from the outside front of the bag. Just unzip and “voila” there is a hard sided pull out drawer. YES, a drawer all canvas covered with three separate sections! This is perfect for baby food jars, toys or snack containers. They are wide and deep enough for lots of different uses. This is a great place to stash your wallet so you don’t have to take a purse with you. On the back side of the bag there is a full length sewn pocket, with many functional uses, bibs, cloths, receiving blankets or even a colouring book. The sides provide even more storage. What else could you possibly need?? Well, how about a padded sunglass holder, a mesh pouch, a key hook, and oh wait, a place to keep your cellphone. (We all know what a pain it is to root around in a huge bag, juggling the baby, and the phone just keeps on ringing) As well there is one extra draw string pouch just because.
No matter what stage your baby or toddler is at, this bag is going to make your life much, much easier, physically and mentally. No more running though the mall or a restaurant looking like the crazed rabbit from Alice in Wonderland, rooting shoulder deep into the dark Abyss of an old fashioned, unpractical diaper bag. You now will feel free and organized having everything within easy reach.
So, now for where you can actually buy one of these exciting diaper bags.
