And Skooch diaper bags make it that much harder to downsize my collection. The line of bags from Skooch combine the three all-important F’s: fun, fashion, and function. The mom behind the designs wanted a diaper bag that was “an extension of a mom’s outfit””an accessory that would complete and outfit,” and these bags fit the bill.

Skooch, named after the nickname of the designer’s son, offers two fantastic collections, Mix It Up and Groovy. I was able to try out the Bubblegum bag from the Mix It Up collection. Bubblegum, which brings a smile to any kid’s face, is a great name for a bag that brought a smile to mine. The color was fresh and vibrant, and the features didn’t disappoint.

The bag offers an exterior fabric of waterproof 600 denier polyester with a water repellant finish, clean up is a breeze. This diaper bag has three front pockets, three back pockets (one of which could fit a small laptop), an oversized water resistant changing pad, metal feet to protect the bottom of the bag, and comfortable shoulder straps that confert into a stroller bag. And that’s just the outside! The interior offers pockets galore with a water resistant lining as well.

You’ve got to check out the Skooch’s Groovy line of bags as well. Talk about function with a bit of funk! (Perhaps I’ll just make diaper bags my latest collection and give the jean industry a break.) –Emily
