Diaper bags - looking for recs

Hi everyone,

Well I've decided it's time for a real diaper bag since I started with a sling/backpack that was WAY too small and then moved on to a tote bag that's too big and I can't keep it organized.

I think I need something in a backpack style that can hold lots of stuff, bottles included, and has lots of dividers.

I've been checking out the Jujube Be All and Packabe online but I'm just not sure.

I don't want one of those backpacks that looks like a box on your back, KWIM?

So tell me about your diaper bags and what you love or hate about them.

Thanks!!!

I really like my Lands End bag, which was recommended by moms on this board. It has lots of good storage area, divided into twos which is convenient of course.
It doesn't have an insulated place for bottles, however.
DH likes it cause it looks like a backpack.

 

I have one from Babies R Us that hooks on to the stroller. It has a pacificer holder, cell phone holder, special bottle area...everything you need!!! It is fabulous! It is made by Baby Innovations. I buy it for all my pregnant friends.

 

I have the Skiphop Duo Double (I had the regular one for dd). It's a nice large bag and you can attach it to a side by side stroller.

I have a Petunia Pickle Bottom and LOVE it. I like that it is stylish and practical. Good luck on your hunt for the perfect diaper bag.

 

I am a fan of the Lands End bags. I have the backpack (which looks like an actual backpack) for long outings or visits to family/friends. DH carries it without hesitation. I use the mini messenger style bag for our daily outings. I can fit one unisex outfit, 4 diapers, wipes, burpie, sanitizer, 2 bottles, my wallet, phone and keys in it. It comes with a changing pad that is neatly stored. It's very convenient and will lay diagonally across my chest when I need both hands. The backpack is great, it's just bulky. I, too, have a Petunia Pickle Bottom shoulder bag. It's very trendy and cute, but I prefer the smaller bag.
