Jenny sent me the All-in-One organizer (shown above) to try out and I love it! It has two pockets on the sides and an empty middle and it has been a great little bag to have around. I've used it for sunscreen, a towel, sunglasses, and my cellphone when I take Everly outside. I've used it for library books and my library card. I've used it for groceries if I'm just running out for some small items. And it is currently being used for smaller toys in Everly's room because the pattern is so adorable! Everly loves it, too. It's super sturdy so she plays with it a lot. Playing with = hurling her body on top of it and screaming & biting it excitedly.

The poor bag has taken a lot of abuse, and it still looks great!

The fabric is a thick, high quality and the colors are vibrant. And the All-in-One organizer is being discontinued in August so if you want it - GET IT NOW!


There are a ton of other things at Thirty-One that I want to get my hands on and I'm not even someone who normally carries bags or likes trendy bags (like Vera Bradley, for example). I think what appeals to me is the quality (and of course the price) but also all the different colors & customization you can put together.

Look at this robot pattern! I like Free Spirit Ditzy, too. And the patterns change with the seasons, so you can get newer looks but not break the bank (face it -none of us can afford to do much these days).

The bags are practical, great for yourself or as gifts, and there are a TON of different sizes/shapes. Some have more storage, some are just like regular purses, some are backpacks and they have other stuff too! They have bibs and burp cloths, and small cooler bags for bottles.

Practical, affordable, high quality, cute patterns... yup. Everything a mama needs.

SOME EXAMPLES OF ITEMS YOU CAN USE $10 TOWARD:
1) Organizing Utility Tote ($22) aka Diaper Bag
2) 30 Custom Address Labels ($5) for Baby Announcements
3) Mini Zipper Pouch ($10) for I.D., chapstick, etc. - throw in your diaper bag!
4) Scarves ($20) Throw in your hair on ponytail days (basically every day)
5) Picnic Thermal Tote ($28) for bottles or lunch on the go

Good luck in the contest! Thanks Jenny for sponsoring! I think you guys are gonna love these bags and accessories.
