    Skip Hop Studio Diaper Tote Handbag is awesome.So many pockets – as well as not those small, worthless pockets, either. All of the pockets are a fantastic size and genuinely aid maintain everything organized. The handles are a excellent length and fit nicely more than the actual shoulder; the tackle shoulder straps also remain put on my arm, which is actually essential when you’re having a newborn. The bag looks fantastic, as well. Not as well fancy, but not too casual. (I have it in black) The material is soft (can’t assume of a superior word) so it’s simple to squeeze in to tight spaces – but yet it’s sturdy. I have a Fleurville Lexi carry and I adore it, as well, but that handbag is type of inflexible. I feel that Skip*Hop will turn out to be my everyday tote. It’s a little bit big – so if you’re not really in to substantial totes this may be superior as an over-night baby diaper bag.
