Mrs. Smith’s Diaper Bag by Whoda Thought was created out of a mother’s frustration at spending way too much time struggling with all the little details versus being in the moment and enjoying her children. Rachel Smith decided after a difficult time traveling with her toddler son and infant daughter that there simply must be a more functional design to diaper bags that allow for much easier access, more efficient storage and versatility. And thus, the Mrs. Smith’s Diaper Bag was born.
I am undeniably guilty of being unorganized, especially in my purse and my diaper bag. It isn’t that I don’t want to be clutter free and have everything neatly in its place but I often fall short. It wouldn’t be usual to find random toys, dirty socks or an animal cracker floating around in my purse and much the same can be said about my diaper bag. After using the Mrs. Smith Diaper Bag the last couple of weeks (in this gorgeous dark copper color) I’ve found the perfect bag for longer trips.
The pull out bottom drawer of this bag is simply G-E-N-I-U-S! The storage compartments kept all my snacks for a road trip together and with easy access, not to mention safe from getting squashed! For another trip I used it to hold some small toys as well but if but kids were still eating bag food or needing formula this would be the perfect spot to store it!
If you are wondering if the bottom storage takes up too much room, don’t! I was able to still put two changes of clothing, two pairs of thick footed pajamas, diapers and wipes with a little room to spare on the top. There is a built in changing pad with is extra large, larger than I’ve ever seen in a diaper bag. The design makes it fold down super flat for maximum storage. The only downside is it isn’t padded.
I also love how the Mrs. Smith’s Diaper Bag can convert from messenger style to a backpack in an easy switchover with the strap. Talk about versatility. This bag is definitely made for hauling though and is a decent size. While still compact enough to fit in our stroller basket, it isn’t the bag you’d use for a quick shopping trip. Don’t let the pictures deceive you. This bag is a good size and for that I’m grateful!
