There’s so much beauty in becoming a mom, but one thing I really miss is my ability to accessorize as I pleased. When I didn’t always have my hands full of diapers, sippy-cups, and well, a baby, I loved carrying a chic seasonal handbag everywhere I went. Now, it’s all about the diaper bag and maybe tossing my beautiful wallet inside, only to get lost in the clutter.
Green leather Baliloca, now on sale for $40
So, when I heard about , I had to check out this unique style. Ideal for the busy mom (or the lucky one who gets to travel!) this bag is designed to fit into your crazy lifestyle and keep your valuables secure and comfortable. With our upcoming trip to Dallas (we like to go a few times a year for that sunshine), this was the perfect time for me to fetch one for myself.
My black leather Baliloca bag is soft, comfortable, and chic. Inside, there’s plenty of room for the essentials including cash, credit cards, sunnies, and even a diaper. Since the Baliloca features a strap that loops around the opposite shoulder, and supports you in back, there’s no worrying about neck aches or slippage. Secure on my shoulder, I can strap this one on and head out the door with ease. Major time and stress saver for moms!
These sleek bags are great for travel, especially anywhere you don’t feel 100% confident with your surroundings. Your valuables are tucked away safely, so there’s no wondering if pickpockets can gain sneaky access. Also, it makes boarding planes a breeze. Seriously, as a mom you need your “personal item” on the plane to be something for your kids… whether that’s a cooler of milk and snacks or whatever. I plan to throw a cardigan on over my Baliloca for our flight later this week and streamline the entire process.
Hands-free is the life for me these days, whether I’m toting my little one around New York City where we live, or jetting off somewhere fun together. Her stuff takes up so much space, mine needs to be tucked away and ready for easy access. All moms should check out the Baliloca — available in leather or neoprene at amazing prices for fall!
