The Diaper Bag Apprentice

It's not every day that a diaper bag intimidates me. Most diaper bags are purely functional. A select few are also luxurious and attractive. But until I met the Elizabeth Bag from Cameron Nicole, I never knew a diaper bag could be so proper. So Formidable. And yet, so functional, luxurious, and attractive at the same time. Dressed to impress in three choices of color, including golden-flecked, croco embossed leather, Elizabeth comes off as cool and aloof as a European supermodel. No surprise that she's on Heidi Klum's "in" list. Her bones are strong and fine (no floppy totes here) and her lines are sleek and lithe. She weighs surprisingly little. She's all business and she won't suffer fools. Don't mess - although if you did, it probably wouldn't even stick to her. She's got a glossy spill proof coating on the inside.

Elizabeth makes me want to go out and get the kind of job where I'd sit in boardrooms and attend formal international conferences, just so I can hang out with her and be her apprentice. Even Donald Trump would not fire Elizabeth. He could see she has all the right answers. And I can totally picture Melania, wearing some ferocious heels, with Elizabeth hanging smartly on her shoulder as she and baby Trump board the family jet.

Although I've not personally put the bag through the paces, it does look like it would function really well. Gorgeous and intelligent too. Figures. There are numerous internal pockets for bottles and wipes, a light white and orange paisley oilcloth lining, and a handy brass key clip. Due to it's classic shape and extreme high quality, this bag would definitely make the transition to laptop bag or briefcase post baby - you'll want to use this beauty for years to come if you are lucky enough to own one.

Cameron Nicole has many gorgeous bags to choose from on her website, many of which are named after famous powerful women, such as Evita, Thatcher and of course Elizabeth. And in honor of Independence Day she is having a spectacular sale. Grab your bag quick - the sale ends July 15th. Elizabeth is 40% off!
