			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I never had a preference for how I&#8217;d deliver my daughter as long as she comes out healthy. Since I was set to go with the flow, I didn&#8217;t give too much thought about the side effects of  Epidural. I just knew that I&#8217;ll try to bear with the pain as much as I can. After being 5 cm dilated and unsure if I&#8217;ll be able to hang on without pain killer, I decided to opt in for Epidural. The drug worked wonders, all the pain went away pretty quickly and I was able to deliver my daughter within 2 hours of pushing. Everything was a joy until the day after delivery. I started having a migrane like headache that seem to get worse when I&#8217;m in upright position. Without thinking too much of it, I went home with the headache. For the next two days, I was in misery while trying to breastfeed and recover from the delivery.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>33 weeks into my first pregnancy, I found out that my little girl was already hanging low in my belly with contractions that resembled either a menstral cramp or tightening of the stomach muscle. I never liked taking medicine and being put on medication with a baby in the stomach was much concerning. Particularly, when I was feeling the side effect of the medicine (high pulse and discomfort) . Since I had no experience with the drug, I sought out online resources (babycenter.com) to learn from mothers who have had experience with the medicine. That was probably a mistake as the postings are generally extreme towards the negative and that just made me more worried. Although I knew the risk of delivering per-term is much higher than the medicine itself, it was difficult to swallow the pills to stop the frequent contractions. I decided to be conservative on the medication with the goal of delivering at 37 weeks. And sure enough, the day before my 37 week mark, I decided to stop taking the pill and active labor started 11pm. I delivered my daughter at 37 weeks exactly, thanks to the miracle drug. Now looking back, I&#8217;m glad that I stayed on the medicine so my daughter has a chance to develop full term.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m starting this post as a way to share limited-edition chic designs out there in the market.  </p>
<h2><span style="color:#00ccff;">Little Earth </span></h2>
<p>Little Earth offers unique and fashionable purses made out of recycling materials, another great eco-friendly brand (woo-hoo!).  One of my most favorite is their limited edition <a href="http://shop.littlearth.com/s.nl/it.A/id.6130/.f" target="_blank">Roller Dreamer Fender by Leo Espinosa</a>.  It appears that they partner with contemporary artists to produce new and limited designs every season. Roller Dreamer Fender is shown below and with every limited edition style, only 1,000 is sold worldwide. The last I checked, it&#8217;s still available so check it out if you&#8217;re a fan too! </p>
<p>Also take a look at <a href="http://www.studioespinosa.com/" target="_blank">Studio Espinosa </a>for some really cool japanese inspired graphic designs and illustrations.</p>
<p><a href="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/roller_dreamer1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-375" title="Roller Dreamer" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/roller_dreamer1.jpg?w=500" alt=""   /></a></p>
<p> </p>
<h2><span style="color:#00ffff;">Anya Hindmarch</span></h2>
<p>The infamous &#8220;I&#8217;m not a plastic bag&#8221; by Anya Hindmarch was a limited edition bag (I believe around 20K) that went on sale worldwide and was sold out within hours of its release. People lined up for hours and each customer was limited to one purchase, if they were lucky to even get to it. Since then, there&#8217;s been a lot of look alikes.</p>
<p><a href="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/anya-notplastic.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-188" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/anya-notplastic.jpg?w=180&#038;h=200" alt="" width="180" height="200" /></a></p>
<p> </p>
<h2><span style="color:#00ffff;">CLARISONIC </span></h2>
<p>The <a href="http://www.drugstore.com/products/prod.asp?pid=169973&amp;catid=76145&amp;aid=335949&amp;aparam=YZvdyBCUNrs-PZrKGiPqXx627vi0FSN3gA" target="_blank">Clarisonic Skin Care Brush</a> made it to this list for its chic pink design for a good cause. This limited edition pink brush contributes ($10) to fight breast cancer with each purchase.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With the holiday season just around the corner, I decided to research on chic products with a good cause. It was not an easy task as many of the options out there are not very trendy or inspiring. After sorting through my options, here are some offerings that I thought stroke a balance between design and good cause. So give the gift that keeps on giving! Delight the recipient with great designs and get the most out of your gifting experience.</p>
<h2><span style="color:#00ccff;">Fenchurch</span></h2>
<p><a href="http://www.fenchurch.com/ladies/?cat=Fenchurch%20Loves%20Bottletop#" target="_blank">Bottletop ringpull bag</a> from fenchurch is handmade in Brazil from old ringpulls. It&#8217;s got a very creative design using recycle products and all the proceeds from the bag goes to the charity <strong>Bottletop</strong>. The organization funds training programs to grow employment in Salvador and health education projects for the youth in the village. It&#8217;s refreshing to find something that&#8217;s got a great design, good for the environment and makes a difference in the community.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.fenchurch.com/ladies/?cat=Fenchurch%20Loves%20Bottletop#" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-309" title="Fenchurch" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/fenchurch.png?w=500" alt=""   /></a></p>
<h2><span style="color:#00ccff;">Alex Woo</span></h2>
<p>The <a href="http://www.alexwoo.com/shop-necklaces-pinkheart.aspx" target="_blank">Little Pink Heart Necklace</a> by Alex Woo was created especially to support women’s cancer research. The pink, suede ribbon can be worn as a necklace or around the wrist and the silver heart is a statement of strength and love for those who have survived or are battling cancer. Net proceeds from the sale of the Little Pink Heart Necklace go directly to the <strong><a href="http://www.eifoundation.org/national/wcrf/splash/" target="_blank">Women’s Cancer Research Fund</a></strong>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.alexwoo.com/shop-necklaces-pinkheart.aspx" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-312" title="AlexWoo" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/alexwoo.jpg?w=500" alt=""   /></a></p>
<h2><span style="color:#00ccff;">Mia Joie</span></h2>
<p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5708284" target="_blank">Mia Joie</a> is founded by a part-time writing professor and offers stylish handmade shoes for babies and toddlers. Many of their items are also eco-friendly using organic cotton, bamboo jersey, eucalyptus, felt made from 100% post-consumer plastic, and reclaimed materials and trim.  They are supporters of <strong><a href="http://www.gchope.org/" target="_blank">Giving Chirldren Hope</a> </strong>with 10% of the sales proceeds going to the organization. Giving Children Hope is a non-profit organization that promotes family sustainability, economic independence, and self-sufficiency so that children may grow in stable environments.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5708284" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-288" title="Mia Joie" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/mia-white.jpg?w=500" alt=""   /></a> <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5708284" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-290" title="Mia Joie" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/mia-boots.jpg?w=500" alt=""   /></a> <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5708284" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-289" title="Mia Joie" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/mia-bag.jpg?w=500" alt=""   /></a></p>
<h2><span style="color:#00ccff;">WEE TIDINGS</span></h2>
<p><a href="http://www.ideas2web.com/bluefinch/content.asp?strAction=9" target="_blank">WEE TIDINGS</a> are mini greeting cards for any occassion. I especially like the <a href="http://www.ideas2web.com/bluefinch/content.asp?strAction=3#" target="_blank">Fresh Tidings</a> line for the chic style. And as we become more environmentally conscious, using mini cards for a big message is the way to go! It&#8217;s also for a <a href="http://www.ideas2web.com/bluefinch/content.asp?strAction=7" target="_blank">good cause</a>, 5% of the profits are going to <strong>American Cancer Society</strong>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ideas2web.com/bluefinch/content.asp?strAction=3" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-305" title="wee Tiding" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/weetiding-cards.jpg?w=500" alt=""   /></a></p>
<h2><span style="color:#00ccff;">Jacaranda Style</span></h2>
<p>This <a href="http://www.jacarandastyle.com/productdetails.php?productId=98" target="_blank">weaver bowl</a> is made out of three quarters of a natural ostrich egg shell. It&#8217;s polished and perched on three brushed metal legs and an eco-friendly product with the eggshells collected after the ostrich chick hatches.

The design of the bag was inspired by the big bags of food that I have seen being distributed to schools around the world. Besides being a cool bag, it is a tangible way to make a difference in the fight against child hunger. Every <strong>FEED</strong> bag sold will feed a child for a whole year in school!” This version of Feed Bag was designed for retail on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&amp;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FWorld-Food-Programme-Feed-Bag%2Fdp%2FB000M3OP6A&amp;tag=lifesengin-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325">Amazon</a>.com.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While looking through maternity options, I&#8217;ve started to catch on name brand selections for baby clothing and accessories. There are some really high end stuff out there that I couldn&#8217;t resist to dig into and some you might already got a taste in the diaper section. And if you think having a baby is expensive &#8230; here&#8217;s how it could get really expensive.</p>
<h3><span style="color:#00ccff;">GUCCI</span></h3>
<p>Gucci offers a baby line but you&#8217;d need to be on the <a href="http://www.gucci.com/uk/uk-english/uk/fall-winter-08/baby/#0-543969-123326F40JR8588" target="_blank">UK Gucci site</a> to see the offering. It doesn&#8217;t seem like they offer much variety but the categories they cover are Diaper Bags, Shoes and Carrier. In the US, their carrier can be found on <a href="http://www.saksfifthavenue.com/main/ProductDetail.jsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=282574492709215&amp;PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524446162642&amp;in_merch=1&amp;sid=11BADCA040CA&amp;P_name=Gucci&amp;R=807190569405&amp;ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=1408474399545537&amp;bmUID=1218391748752" target="_blank">Saks</a> and bags and shoes have more variety at <a href="http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod35330044&amp;cmCat=search&amp;searchType=" target="_blank">Nieman</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.saksfifthavenue.com/main/ProductDetail.jsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=282574492709215&amp;PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524446162642&amp;in_merch=1&amp;sid=11BADCA040CA&amp;P_name=Gucci&amp;R=807190569405&amp;ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=1408474399545537&amp;bmUID=1218391748752"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-221" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/gucci-carrier.jpg?w=500" alt=""   /></a> <a href="http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod35330044&amp;cmCat=search&amp;searchType=" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-217" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/gucci.jpg?w=120&#038;h=120" alt="" width="120" height="120" /></a> <a href="http://www.gucci.com/uk/uk-english/uk/fall-winter-08/baby/#0-543964-205556CANV06466"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-222" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/gucci-shoes.jpg?w=500" alt=""   /></a></p>
<h3><span style="color:#00ccff;">CHLOE</span></h3>
<p>Chloe has a collection for <a href="http://www.chloe.com/version_en/" target="_blank">children</a> but only available at select boutiques. In the US, <a href="http://www.neimanmarcus.com/search.jhtml?Ntt=chloe+&amp;_requestid=8659&amp;N=4294966967" target="_blank">Neiman</a> is their carrier but offering is very limited.</p>

<h3><span style="color:#00ccff;">DIOR</span></h3>
<p>I first came across the Dior Baby product when visiting the Desert Hills (Cabazon) Outlet on the way to Palm Springs, CA. Like many other name brands, their kid&#8217;s selection is not featured on US website and after digging, I did manage to see it on their Japan site. In the US, they can be found on <a href="http://www.neimanmarcus.com/search.jhtml?N=0&amp;Ntt=baby+dior&amp;_requestid=9036">Neiman</a> (ofcourse) and <a href="http://www.eluxury.com/estore/search/search_results.jsp?_dyncharset=ISO-8859-1&amp;_dynSessConf=-7557078355386580389&amp;%2Feluxury%2Fcommerce%2Fiphrase%2Fproxy%2FIPhraseSearchFormHandler.search=search&amp;_D%3A%2Feluxury%2Fcommerce%2Fiphrase%2Fproxy%2FIPhraseSearchFormHandler.search=+&amp;command=page&amp;attr1=2&amp;attr2=0&amp;v0=dior%2Bbaby&amp;i=Style+id&amp;s1=Style+id%2F%2F0&amp;s0=iphrase+relevance%2F%2F0&amp;as=1&amp;q=12&amp;p=1&amp;s=%24__session__%24&amp;t=0&amp;c2=b%3A12%2F%2Fproduct+disable%2F%2F0&amp;c1=i%3A256%3BBrand%2CCollection%2CColor%2CDescription%2CName%2CShort+description%2CDepartment%3Bdior%2Cbaby%3BChristian+Dior%2C%3Ababi%3B%2B0+%2B1&amp;c0=b%3A140%2F%2FInstock%2F%2F1&amp;_DARGS=%2Festore%2Fsearch%2Fsearch_results.jsp.1" target="_blank">eLuxury.com</a>. Dior seems to have a lot more options when it comes to accessories and clothing and I just love their design and packaging!</p>

<h3><span style="color:#00ccff;">DOLCE &amp; GABBANA</span></h3>
<p>D&amp;G also has a <a href="http://www.dolcegabbana.com/deg-junior/" target="_blank">JR line</a> that covers from new born to JR. They have leopard prints for their infant line which I&#8217;m not too fond of. Some of their baby designs are a little too adult like for me.</p>

<h3><span style="color:#00ccff;">FENDI</span></h3>
<p>Who knew Fendi also offers baby products. I&#8217;m surprised to see some of the varieties they offer from baby carrier to shoes to bottles. I&#8217;m not a big fan of their design but it&#8217;s definitely a surprise to see what they got for the baby category. (Check out the <a href="http://www.eluxury.com/estore/browse/product_detail.jsp?id=11733744" target="_blank">bottle carrier</a> below)</p>

<h3><span style="color:#00ccff;">BILL AMBERG</span></h3>
<p>Although not a household brand name, <a href="http://www.billamberg.com/category/BillAmberg%5FCATEGORY%5FBaby+Accessories.htm" target="_blank">Bill Amberg</a> (a UK brand) offers premium baby accessories. Below are my favorite designs from their baby category and let&#8217;s just say they are also not cheap.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.billamberg.com/product/BillAmberg%5FCATEGORY%5FBaby+Accessories/600.htm"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-283" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/ba_carrier1.jpg?w=500" alt=""   /></a> <a href="http://www.billamberg.com/product/BillAmberg%5FCATEGORY%5FBaby+Accessories/606.htm"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-284" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/ba_bootie.jpg?w=500" alt=""   /></a> <img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-285" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/ba_bouncer.jpg?w=500" alt=""   /></p>
<p>Aside from name brand baby products, there are some really cool designs out there worth mentioning:</p>
<h2><span style="color:#00ccff;">Mia Joie</span></h2>

<h2><span style="color:#00ccff;">Robbie Adrian</span></h2>
<p><a href="http://www.robbieadrian.com/index.php" target="_blank">Robbie Adrian</a> is a designer brand of organic baby blankets. Their blankets are made of organic cotton with colors from low-impact dyes, making it  luxurious and earth-friendly. It&#8217;s also among the celebrities&#8217; choice. (Christina Aguilera for one)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.robbieadrian.com/index.php" target="_blank"></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.robbieadrian.com/index.php" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-366" title="robbieadrian1" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/robbieadrian1.jpg?w=500" alt=""   /></a></p>
<p>I first saw the blankets at Little Piggy Wears Cotton in Santa Barbara. They offer high-end European and American products for newborns to age fourteen. Although I didn&#8217;t see a lot of cute selections, one thing I loved is their packaging!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:left;">With all the attention on going green these days, I&#8217;ve started to pay attention to reusable/recycled grocery bags  during my supermarket trips. I&#8217;ve noticed that people are indeed becoming more environmentally conscious by replacing plastic bags with reusable bags/totes to carry their groceries home. However, among the bags that people are carrying, none were appealing. And that drove me to do some research on better options for those of us who are design conscious and look for better alternatives than a grandma shopping bag. Here are just some of the brands and styles that I&#8217;ve come across.</p>
<h3 style="text-align:left;"><span style="color:#00ccff;">Envirosax</span></h3>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://envirosax.com/" target="_blank">Envirosax</a> produces some of the most stylish and trendy reusable shopping bags that I&#8217;ve seen in the market. Their eco-friendly reusable shopping bags are available as single 	items or as an assortment of 5 durable waterproof, lightweight bags held in a small pouch that fits in a handbag.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://www.envirosax.com/products/graphic_series/" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-136" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/envirosakgraphic.jpg?w=200&#038;h=200" alt="" width="200" height="200" /></a> <a href="http://www.envirosax.com/products/organic_series/" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-135" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/envirosakorganic.jpg?w=200&#038;h=200" alt="" width="200" height="200" /></a> <a href="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/envirosakorganic.jpg"> </a></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/envirosakorganic.jpg"></a><a title="Kid's Series" href="http://www.envirosax.com/products/kids_series/" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-137" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/reusablebags.jpg?w=200&#038;h=200" alt="" width="200" height="200" /></a> <a title="Pouch" href="http://store.envirosax.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=MC.P.D" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-138" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/envirosaxpouch.jpg?w=200&#038;h=200" alt="" width="200" height="200" /></a></p>
<h3 style="text-align:left;"><span style="color:#00ccff;">REISENTHEL</span></h3>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a title="Reisenthel" href="http://www.reisenthel.com/us/index.html" target="_blank">Reisenthel</a> is a German brand   that designs with form, style and function in mind. Their <a href="http://www.reisenthel.com/us/index.html" target="_blank">Carrybag</a> is a signature item and have seem similar styles carried by Catherine Zeta-Jones in No Reservations. I&#8217;m not sure how easy it is to carry around but sure looks very stylish!</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://www.reisenthel.com/us/index.html"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-144" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/reisenthel-carry1.jpg?w=200&#038;h=200" alt="" width="200" height="200" /></a> <a href="http://www.reisenthel.com/us/index.html" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-145" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/reisenthel-carry2.jpg?w=200&#038;h=200" alt="" width="200" height="200" /></a></p>
<h3 style="text-align:left;"><span style="color:#00ccff;"><strong>BEAU SOLEIL</strong></span></h3>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://www.shopbeausoleil.com/about.php" target="_blank">Beau Soleil</a> created by Anne Salvatore Epstein, is an eco-friendly brand focused on sustainability, fair trade and labor. Along with the use of organic raw materials, it aims to offer consumers environmentally healthy fashion choices without sacrificing style and design. The Beau Bag is among my favorite finds in the eco-friendly bags:</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://www.shopbeausoleil.com/bag.php"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-150" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/beaubag-grocery.jpg?w=200&#038;h=200" alt="" width="200" height="200" /></a> <a href="http://www.shopbeausoleil.com/america.php"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-151" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/beaubag-2.jpg?w=200&#038;h=200" alt="" width="200" height="200" /></a></p>
<h3 style="text-align:left;"><span style="color:#00ccff;">B HAPPYBAGS</span></h3>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://www.bhappybags.com/about-us/" target="_blank">b Happybags</a> was created by long time proponents of “just saying no” to paper or plastic.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://www.bhappybags.com/product.php?productid=16164&amp;cat=0&amp;page=1&amp;featured"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-153" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/bhappybagtess.jpg?w=180&#038;h=200" alt="" width="180" height="200" /></a></p>
<h3 style="text-align:left;"><span style="color:#00ccff;">METHOD</span></h3>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://www.methodhome.com/Product.aspx?id=ggtote" target="_blank">Method</a> was founded by Adam Lowry and Eric Ryan, who set out to create home care products that are design and environmentally friendly. Although reusable bags is not their main product line, they sure did a good job with the design of the market tote. My favorite is the blue Method/HSN version which is sold on <a href="http://home-solutions.hsn.com/method-hsn-reusable-market-tote_pf-1036532_xp.aspx?club_id=1036532&amp;sz=888&amp;sf=HW0014&amp;rdr=1&amp;cm_mmc=Shopping%20Engine-_-Shopping.com-_-Home%20Solutions-_-Method;/HSN%20Reusable%20Market%20Tote%204112139" target="_blank">HSN.com</a>.</p>

<p style="text-align:left;">
<h3><span style="color:#00ccff;">JUICY COUTURE</span></h3>
<p>Juicy Couture also has caught on the green trend by offering its go-green tote. I did get a little side tracked while surfing for their bag category when I came across the <a href="http://www.juicycouture.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod3780025&amp;parentId=cat111&amp;masterId=cat103&amp;cmCat=cat000000cat103cat111&amp;index=50&amp;tid=P9" target="_blank">Flower tote</a>. Not exactly your grocery bag but I can&#8217;t help highlighting it here. Thought someone would appreciate the unique design. It comes in apple green and yellow as well. And like all their other bags, it&#8217;s quite pricy even for the Go Green tote, which I&#8217;m not sure if it&#8217;s worth it.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.juicycouture.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod4550023&amp;parentId=cat111&amp;masterId=cat103&amp;cmCat=cat000000cat103cat111&amp;index=32&amp;tid=P9"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-164" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/juicy-green.jpg?w=180&#038;h=200" alt="" width="180" height="200" /></a> <a href="http://www.juicycouture.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod3780025&amp;parentId=cat111&amp;masterId=cat103&amp;cmCat=cat000000cat103cat111&amp;index=50&amp;tid=P9"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-163" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/juicy.jpg?w=180&#038;h=200" alt="" width="180" height="200" /></a></p>
<h3><span style="color:#00ccff;">FOREVER 21</span></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.forever21.com/category.asp?catalog%5Fname=FOREVER21&amp;category%5Fname=acc%5Fhandbags&amp;Page=all" target="_blank">Forever 21</a> offers some of the most economical and design friendly reusable totes. The i Love Green and Love Your Mother Earth designs below are sold for $1.50. The pink <span class="items_name">Car Canvas Tote Bag is based on </span>an eco-friendly print design on a vegetable fiber canvas. The interior has pocket compartments so not exactly designed to carry grocery but a good option for the designed, green and cost conscious.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.forever21.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=FOREVER21&amp;category%5Fname=acc%5Fhandbags&amp;product%5Fid=1052550998&amp;Page=all"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-167" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/forever21-lovegreen.jpg?w=180&#038;h=200" alt="" width="180" height="200" /></a> <a href="http://www.forever21.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=FOREVER21&amp;category%5Fname=acc%5Fhandbags&amp;product%5Fid=1052548676&amp;Page=all" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-168" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/forever21-motherearth.jpg?w=180&#038;h=200" alt="" width="180" height="200" /></a><a href="http://www.forever21.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=FOREVER21&amp;category%5Fname=acc%5Fhandbags&amp;product%5Fid=1049318774&amp;Page=all#"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-170" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/forever21-car.jpg?w=180&#038;h=200" alt="" width="180" height="200" /></a></p>
<h3><span style="color:#00ccff;">MyBag Fold-Up Grocery Bag</span></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.101gear.com/product.php?prid=211584&amp;pn=MyBag-Fold-Up-Grocery-Bag" target="_blank">MyBag grocery bag</a> was found on a UK retailer site. I liked the unique design concept (opens up and you get a  plastic bag looking reusable bag) so thought I highlight it here. It looks like you can purchase it from the US but the shipping cost is quite high for international customers.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.101gear.com/product.php?prid=211584&amp;pn=MyBag-Fold-Up-Grocery-Bag" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-172" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/shinyshack.jpg?w=180&#038;h=200" alt="" width="180" height="200" /></a></p>
<h3><strong><span style="color:#00ccff;">SEA BAGS</span></strong></h3>
<p>Sea Bags is a Portland based company that makes custom tote bags out of recycled sails. The totes come in three different sizes and offers customization on numbers. A medium sized bag runs over $100. Not cheap for a tote but does help support for a good cause.</p>
<p><a href="http://seabags.com/index.php" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-176" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/seabag.jpg?w=180&#038;h=200" alt="" width="180" height="200" /></a></p>
<h3><span style="color:#00ccff;">CHAPEL OF DAWN</span></h3>
<p>Chapel of Dawn is another brand that I&#8217;d came across recently that I thought had some cool stuff. I couldn&#8217;t find much info about them but believe that they are a Hong Kong brand. The two items below that I loved are the limited edition of the <strong>Chapel of Dawn Eric Elms <a href="http://www.colette.fr/" target="_blank">Colette</a> Tote</strong> (limited edition: 100 worldwide) and <strong>Chapel of Dawn Hello Kitty Tote</strong>. I&#8217;d also recommend checking out <a href="http://www.colette.fr/" target="_blank">Colette&#8217;s website</a>, it has some really cool product designs!</p>

<h3><span style="color:#00ccff;">FEED BAG</span></h3>
<p>Lauren Bush, honorary spokesperson for the UN World Food Program, initiated the feed project to fight child hunger. &#8220;The <strong>FEED</strong> bag is a sturdy, reversible bag made out of natural burlap and cotton materials. The design of the bag was inspired by the big bags of food that I have seen being distributed to schools around the world. Besides being a cool bag, it is a tangible way to make a difference in the fight against child hunger. Every <strong>FEED</strong> bag sold will feed a child for a whole year in school!&#8221; This version of Feed Bag was designed for retail on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&amp;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FWorld-Food-Programme-Feed-Bag%2Fdp%2FB000M3OP6A&amp;tag=lifesengin-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325">Amazon</a><img style="border:none !important;margin:0 !important;" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=lifesengin-20&amp;l=ur2&amp;o=1" border="0" alt="" width="1" height="1" />.</p>

<h3><span style="color:#00ccff;"><strong>Anya Hindmarch</strong></span></h3>
<p>Since we&#8217;re talking about reusable shopping bags, we can&#8217;t get away with not mentioning the infamous &#8220;I&#8217;m not a plastic bag&#8221; by Anya Hindmarch. The bag was a limited edition bag (I believe around 20K) that went on sale worldwide   and was sold out within hours of its release.  People lined up for hours and each customer was limited to one purchase, if they were lucky to even get to it.  Since then, there&#8217;s been a lot of look alikes and can even be found on Amazon. For something that was a limited edition, I question where the bags came from.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Great designs are everywhere and one of the areas that I&#8217;m starting to pay attention to is food packaging and design. Elegant and modern design in the food category is rare in the US as there&#8217;s a less appreciation for it when compared to Europe and Asia. Here are some brands that I think are doing great in their presentation: </p>
<h3><span style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="color:#696969;">R</span></span><span style="color:#696969;">ichart Chocolate</span> </h3>
<p><a href="http://www.richart-chocolates.com/">Richart</a> is a French chocolate brand in the premium/fine chocolate category. They offer v<a href="http://www.richart-chocolates.com/b2c/chocolate/flavors">arious flavors</a> and personalization on the chocolate for a special gift or wedding favor. </p>
<p> </p>
<p><a href="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/richart-home.jpg"></a><a href="http://www.richart-chocolates.com/" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-96" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/richart-home1.jpg?w=200&#038;h=200" alt="" width="200" height="200" /></a>       <a href="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/richart-box.jpg"></a><a href="http://www.richart-chocolates.com/"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-97" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/richart-box1.jpg?w=200&#038;h=200" alt="" width="200" height="200" /></a></p>

<p> </p>
<h3><span style="color:#696969;">Sprinkles Cup Cake</span></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.sprinklescupcakes.com/">Sprinkles Cup Cake</a> is based in Beverly Hills and has been a popular and trendy spot for the locals. I really like the simple elegance in the presentation. The individual packaging is also a great option for wedding or party favors.  </p>
<p><a href="http://www.sprinklescupcakes.com/index.html"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-105" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/sprinkles.jpg?w=200&#038;h=200" alt="" width="200" height="200" />   </a><a href="http://www.sprinklescupcakes.com/wedding/wedding_index.html"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-106" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/sprinkles-bear.jpg?w=200&#038;h=200" alt="" width="200" height="200" /></a></p>

<h3><span style="color:#696969;">Pinkberry</span></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.pinkberry.com/">Pinkberry</a> along with <a href="http://www.redmangousa.com/">Red Mango</a> are the pioneers in redefining the frozen yogurt experience. Although a new concept imported from Korea, Pinkberry has benefited from its Hollywood location with customers like Paris Hilton, to create buzz for the store. Since their opening, frozen yogurt stores alike are following their lead in not only the flavoring but the trendy experience associated with the taste. </p>
<p><a href="http://pinkberry.com/html/product_4.php" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-111" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/pinkberry-palete.jpg?w=300&#038;h=148" alt="" width="300" height="148" /></a></p>
<h3><strong><br />
</strong></h3>
<h3><span style="color:#696969;">Fortnum and Mason</span></h3>
<p>How often to you see an embossed pinkish purple packaging for a Tea can? Fortnum and Mason is a British brand focused on selling to the high end market.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.fortnumandmason.com/Black-Tea-with-Fruit,360.aspx" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-117" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/fortnum1.jpg?w=200&#038;h=200" alt="" width="200" height="200" /></a></p>
<h2><span style="color:#00ccff;">FRANCIS COPPOLA</span></h2>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>iii. Maternity Clothes: Finding trendy maternity wear is another big challenge that many women face during pregnancy. Particularly striking a balance between price and style. Many of my pregnant friends, particularly petite ones, are forced to purchase from brand names which is just insanely expensive for something you&#8217;re only going to wear for a limited time. With the baby dolls in style, many women have chose to purchase them for maternity wear. After digging around, I found some great styles that I&#8217;ll share here. </p>
<h2><strong><span style="color:#d87093;"><span style="color:#dda0dd;"><span style="color:#5f9ea0;">FUNMUM</span></span></span></strong></h2>
<p><a href="http://www.funmum.com/" target="_blank">Funmum.com</a>, a British brand, offers maternity clothes from casual to formal wear. I think they are one of the few brands that actually offer great style at a reasonable price. I&#8217;ve actually purchased their tops in the past and the material is super soft and comfortable. Because many of the styles are stretchy and soft, they can be worn even after pregnancy. Their style varies by season and the summer line below actually wasn&#8217;t as good as last year&#8217;s fall/winter design.</p>

<h2><strong><span style="color:#5f9ea0;">ISABELLA OLIVER</span></strong></h2>
<p><strong><span style="color:#5f9ea0;"><span style="font-weight:normal;color:#000000;"><a href="http://www.isabellaoliver.com/maternity-clothes" target="_blank">Isabella Oliver</a> is one of the few trendy and chic maternity brands that I&#8217;d come across in the US. They are also among celebrity favorites and you can <a href="http://www.isabellaoliver.com/weblog/celebrity/" target="_blank">see who&#8217;s wearing Isabella Oliver here</a>. And with style and celebrity support, comes a high price tag. Prices for tops could easily run over $100 a piece but if money is no object for you, they have a great selections to help you stay chic and stylish while pregnant. They do have some styles that are reversible so you are getting two looks for the price of one. </span></span></strong></p>

<h2><span style="color:#5f9ea0;">L&#8217;AVENUE DES BEBES </span></h2>
<p><span style="color:#5f9ea0;"><span style="font-weight:normal;color:#000000;"><a href="http://www.avenue-des-bebes.com/accueil.html" target="_blank">l&#8217;avenue des bebes</a> is a French brand currently without a presence in the US. They do, however, ship to the US. I&#8217;ve purchased their tops in the past and have mixed feelings about their products. The tops sometimes look better in the picture than in person so with an international purchase, exchange or returns are tough. However, they do have some cute pieces and here are some styles from their summer collection. I think sometimes it helps to use the model as a reference for what to wear too.  </span></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><span style="color:#ca0c48;">ii. Diaper Bags</span></strong>: This is a continuation of my maternity finds. In addition to intimate wears, diaper bag is another fashion challenged category but has gotten a bit more attention recently. There&#8217;s also been more offerings in the unisex category over the years as diaper bags become more popular among men, especially when hollywood dads start to carry them around. Below are some stylish brands and designs that I&#8217;d came across.</p>
<h3><span style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="color:#993300;"> </span></span><span style="color:#993300;"><span style="color:#3abac5;"><span style="color:#00bfff;">BURBERRY</span></span></span></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.burberryusaonline.com/searchHandler/index.jsp?searchId=36096275874&amp;keywords=diaper">Burberry</a> offers a series of diaper totes and baby accessories. And like any other luxury product, it comes with a big price tag.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.burberryusaonline.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2742042" target="_blank"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-33" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/burberry.jpg?w=120&#038;h=126" alt="" width="120" height="126" /></a>Baby Bag</strong></p>
<p>This diaper bag comes in the signature black leather trim and buckle flap. I&#8217;m a fan of Burberry&#8217;s bags but not sure about having it for a diaper bag since the light color might get dirty easily. If money wasn&#8217;t an issue, it&#8217;d be nice to have a few and carry this around for special occasions. For a list of baby Burberry products, you can check out <a href="http://www.burberryusaonline.com/shop/index.jsp?categoryId=2119968">burberry.com</a> or <a href="http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?cmCat=search&amp;itemId=prod45870214">neimanmarcus.com</a>.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod22700080&amp;parentId=cat7030733&amp;masterId=cat7370748&amp;index=13&amp;cmCat=" target="_blank"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-53" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/burberrymessg.jpg?w=120&#038;h=126" alt="" width="120" height="126" /></a>Messenger Diaper Bag</strong></p>
<p>Besides the signature prints on the Burberry diaper bags, I came across this one on <a href="http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod22700080&amp;parentId=cat7030733&amp;masterId=cat7370748&amp;index=13&amp;cmCat=" target="_blank">Neiman Marcus</a> that&#8217;s a little more unique. As seen in the picture, it comes in either pink or beige and a Burberry logo in the front of the bag. It doesn&#8217;t appear to come with any additional accessories so seems to be pretty slim down but only at $241. There are also other messenger diaper bag options that offers a bit more but at doubled the price. You can <a href="http://www.neimanmarcus.com/search.jhtml?N=0&amp;Ntt=burberry+diaper+bags&amp;_requestid=59878" target="_blank">see more options here</a>.</p>
<h3><strong><span style="color:#00bfff;"> </span></strong><span style="color:#00bfff;">STORKSAK</span></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.storksak.net/home.php?home=home" target="_blank">Storksak</a> is a British brand that focuses on offering fashionable and functional products for parents. They do sell in the US market and have been featured in many celebrity, fashion and maternity <a href="http://www.storksak.net/index.php?pageid=53" target="_blank">magazines</a>. And any time you&#8217;re associated with a celebrity, you know the price is not going to be cheap, especially for a diaper bag.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.storksak.net/product.php?shopprodid=27" target="_blank"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-34" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/storksak-alex.jpg?w=120&#038;h=126" alt="" width="120" height="126" /></a>UNISEX SAKS</strong></p>
<p>One of my favorite unisex diaper bag is this Jamie Black style offered at Storksak. I think men will like this for not only the style but also its functional designs as the bag is designed to fit most laptops. Also see Storksak&#8217;s bag on June 2008&#8242;s  <a href="http://www.storksak.net/image.php?imageid=135" target="_blank">Star Magazine</a> featuring <strong>Brad Pitt</strong> (as the Dapper Dude) and his sons. Share it with the guys so they can feel cool in a diaper bag. (Compare prices on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&amp;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FStorksak-Jamie-Unisex-Diaper-Black%2Fdp%2FB000RPY02M%3Fie%3DUTF8%26s%3Dbaby-products%26qid%3D1218385881%26sr%3D8-17&amp;tag=lifesengin-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325">Amazon.com</a><img style="border:none !important;margin:0 !important;" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=lifesengin-20&amp;l=ur2&amp;o=1" border="0" alt="" width="1" height="1" /> &#8211; $198 vs. $210)</p>
<p><strong>Elizabeth Chalk</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://www.storksak.net/product.php?shopprodid=216#" target="_blank"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-35" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/storksak-chalk.jpg?w=120&#038;h=126" alt="" width="120" height="126" /></a>The Elizabeth Chalk line is another style from Storksak that caught my eye. I think it can do a bit better on the style but it&#8217;s already very stylish and trendy among diaper bags. The chalk color is a Spring &#8217;08 design and seems like it&#8217;s a favorite among many. Other things that are unique with the Storksak design includes featured removable thermo-insulated bottle holder, micro-fiber padded changing mat, and key-ring clip. Again, price of this is pretty high among diaper bag selections.</p>
<h3><span style="color:#00bfff;"> LOUIS VUITTON</span></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.louisvuitton.com/web/flash/index.jsp;jsessionid=X1KLSD0N1BPGWCRBXUFFAGIKEG4RAUPU?buy=1&amp;langue=en_US&amp;direct1=home_entry_us" target="_blank">Louis Vuitton</a> has a couple of selections for baby bags. They are very expensive, not surprising, but good to know that there are choices out there for LV lovers.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.louisvuitton.com/web/flash/index.jsp;jsessionid=X1KLSD0N1BPGWCRBXUFFAGIKEG4RAUPU?buy=1&amp;langue=en_US&amp;direct1=home_entry_us" target="_blank"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-52" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/lvmono.jpg?w=120&#038;h=126" alt="" width="120" height="126" /></a>Monogram Mini Lin Diaper Bags</strong></p>
<p>This <a href="http://www.louisvuitton.com/web/flash/index.jsp;jsessionid=X1KLSD0N1BPGWCRBXUFFAGIKEG4RAUPU?buy=1&amp;langue=en_US&amp;direct1=home_entry_us" target="_blank">LV diaper bag</a> is listed for $2,120! I think it&#8217;s hands down the most expensive one that I&#8217;ve featured on here. The bag comes with a separate diaper mat (Monogram-embroidered of course) and has lots of space/compartments to store things. The straps are removable (with shoulder pad) so you can choose to carry on the shoulder or handheld. You can see more views of this bag and its inside compartments at <a href="http://www.eluxury.com/estore/browse/product_detail.jsp?id=11395730&amp;searchString=diaperbags" target="_blank">eluxury.com</a>.</p>
<h3><span style="color:#00bfff;"> FELIX REY</span></h3>
<p><a href="http://felixrey.com/" target="_blank">Felix Rey</a> started with the goal to design colorful bags for smart and stylish girl-about-town. Their feminine and vintage inspired bags are often seen with their signature touches such as bows, ruffles and hearts.

<p>This Lucia Patent Diaper Bag is great for mom&#8217;s who need to look modern and professional on the go. The front of the bag is accented with bow detail and &#8220;FR&#8221; logo plate in the lower left corner. I&#8217;m curious about the weight of the bag since it features goldtone hardware straps and aluminum top handles. This might be one that you&#8217;d travel light to balance style and comfort. In addition to black, it also comes in <a href="http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod55410020&amp;cmCat=search&amp;searchType=" target="_blank">Leopard</a> prints at Neimanmarcus.</p>
<h3><span style="color:#00bfff;"> GINA ALEXANDER</span></h3>

<p>This was one of my most favorite designs. I really liked the feminine touch that the flower adds to this bag. There are several other designs available and since every bag is unique, I think it&#8217;d make a great present for new mothers. Especially to show off their cute babies. Check out more styles <a href="https://www.ginaalexander.com/collection-allview.htm" target="_blank">here</a>.

<h3><span style="color:#00bfff;">DEBBIE ROTT<br />
</span></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.debbierott.com/ourstory.php">Debbie Rott</a> debuted its first collection in 2005 and focuses on wearable diaper bag designs. Their designs are a little more edgy and fun especially for moms who looks to show the rocker style in them.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.debbierott.com/product_gold.php" target="_blank"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-37" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/debbierott-rocker.jpg?w=500" alt=""   /></a><strong>Eva Rocker</strong></p>
<p>This Eva Rocker bag comes in several different choices, including Leopard! My personal favorites are the light gold shown here and red. I&#8217;m not a rocker girl but I&#8217;m a denim girl and this would go great with a casual look. And with the rocker/biker style bags in fashion this year, it&#8217;ll sure make any new mother stylish and trendy.

<h3><span style="color:#00bfff;"> AMYKATHRYN</span></h3>
<p><a href="http://amykathryn.com/about.aspx">Amykathryn</a> was founded by designer Amy Hall, who turned her attention to her natural affinity for fine Italian fabrics, particularly in accessories after opening a gallery in 1999. Amykathryn is another brand that took celebrity notice after its launch in 2002 and like any other product associated with hollywood stars, it succeeded in the marketplace quickly.</p>
<p><strong><a href="https://www.amykathryn.com/cart.aspx?r=details&amp;id=36" target="_blank"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-38" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/amykathryn.jpg?w=120&#038;h=126" alt="" width="120" height="126" /></a>Gladiola</strong></p>
<p>The <a href="https://www.amykathryn.com/cart.aspx?r=details&amp;id=36" target="_blank">Gladiola</a> weekender / diaperbag is among my favorites offered by amykathryn. It looks very trendy and seems like it&#8217;d go with either a casual or semi-formal look. The Gladiola comes with a matching diaper changing pad and the adjustable and removable shoulder strap and handles are convenient for switching up the looks. The bag is also medium priced making it more affordable than the other designer brands.</p>
<h3><span style="color:#00bfff;"> FLEURVILLE</span></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.fleurville.com/about_us.html" target="_blank">Fleurville</a> was started by two parents who couldn&#8217;t find inspiring products and designs for their new born. Their products are very modern in design and as the company grows they have began to focus on integrating design and environmental qualities into the product line. They&#8217;re a certified ‘San Francisco Bay Area Green Business’ and their eco-friendly bags were showcased on The View recently, among other celebrity coverages. <a href="http://www.fleurville.com/about_us/press.html" target="_blank">See which celebrities own a Fleurville bag</a>.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.fleurville.com/products/escape_pod.html" target="_blank"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-39" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/fleurville-escape.jpg?w=120&#038;h=126" alt="" width="120" height="126" /></a>Escape Pod</strong></p>
<p>This is actually a small bag that is intended for short trips since it only fits a wipe case, some diapers and a changing cloth. Despite the limited organizing space, I love their modern prints and eco-friendly product design. It also comes in <a href="http://www.fleurville.com/products/escape_pod.html" target="_blank">other fabric designs</a>.</p>
<h3><span style="color:#00bfff;"> ROMALAMA</span></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.ramalama.com.au/contact.html">Romalama</a> is an Australia brand that has offerings in the US. It&#8217;s another brand that grew out of a need for more modern and stylish products for new mothers. What differentiates their style are the clean lines and shape.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.ramalama.com.au/nappy.html" target="_blank"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-40" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/ramalama-ava.jpg?w=120&#038;h=126" alt="" width="120" height="126" /></a></strong></p>
<p><strong>AVA</strong></p>
<p>The Ava leather diaper bag is my favorite Romalama bag. I think it must be the leather and the fact that it comes in both chocolate and caramel, my favorite colors for bags. The clean style and shape reminds me of J CREW style and something that I&#8217;d see a catalog model carry.</p>
<h3><strong><span style="color:#00bfff;"> </span></strong><span style="color:#00bfff;">ROWDY</span></h3>
<p><a href="http://shop.rowdyproducts.com/category.sc;jsessionid=440FEEF268ED7E94B9AB39BD6B9C6FE9.qscstrfrnt04?categoryId=2">Rowdy</a> is a new brand that launched just a year ago by parents who demanded better and more stylish products. They are also on the more edgy side which some would appreciate.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://shop.rowdyproducts.com/product.sc?categoryId=2&amp;productId=7" target="_blank"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-41" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/rowdy.jpg?w=120&#038;h=126" alt="" width="120" height="126" /></a>The Rocker Convertible</strong></p>
<p>I have a mixed feeling about this design but nevertheless I think it fits the unisex design category and husbands might not be embarrassed to carry. I think what&#8217;s bothering me is the tassel and might look better without it. The bag also comes in black and Copper which might be better selections. Once nice thing about this bag is you can wear it as a backpack or on the side.

<h3><span style="color:#00bfff;"> JUICY COUTURE</span></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.juicycouture.com/" target="_blank">Juicy Couture</a> offers both maternity fashion and diaper bags, although their maternity clothes need to catch up a bit on style. There are some fun <a href="http://www.juicycouture.com/store/search/search.jhtml?searchText=diaper+bag&amp;pageno=1&amp;_requestid=25224" target="_blank">diaper bags</a> offered by Juicy Couture and my favorite one is the below.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.juicycouture.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod4960019&amp;cmCat=search" target="_blank"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-55" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/juicy.jpg?w=120&#038;h=126" alt="" width="120" height="126" /></a>Scottie-Print Stroller Bag</strong></p>
<p>The Scottie-Print Stroller bag comes in a pink or yellow tone. It comes with burping cloth, bib, and blanket from their Couture Baby and Juicy Couture lines. (<a href="http://www.juicycouture.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod4960019&amp;cmCat=search" target="_blank">See pictures here</a>) Here&#8217;s where you can compare with the <a href="http://www.juicycouture.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod4960018&amp;cmCat=search" target="_blank">Camomile Lawn</a> (yellow) style.</p>
<h3><span style="color:#00bfff;">JP LIZZY</span></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.jplizzy.com/story.cfm">JP Lizzy</a> also started with a designer mom who believed a diaper bag should live on after its purpose has been served. My favorite line is their <a href="http://www.jplizzy.com/collectionList.cfm?collection_id=5">Lesisure Totes</a> collection which are stylish and fun.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.jplizzy.com/viewProduct.cfm?product_id=75"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-42" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/jplizzy-scarlett.jpg?w=120&#038;h=126" alt="" width="120" height="126" /></a>Scarlet Poppies Leisure Tote</strong></p>
<p>This Scarlet Poppies Leisure Tote is feminine and chic. The floral design goes well with spring and summer wear. The down side of this selection is probably the lack of accessories that other bags include, like matching changing pads. However, the price of the bag is a lot more affordable at $72. <a href="http://www.jplizzy.com/viewProduct.cfm?product_id=79" target="_blank">Matching clutch</a> also available in the same floral design.</p>
<h3><span style="color:#00ccff;">COACH</span></h3>
<p>Coach also offers diaper bags and the one below is their <a href="http://www.coach.com/content/product.aspx?product_no=7449&amp;category_id=200" target="_blank">Optic Signature Baby Bag</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.coach.com/content/product.aspx?product_no=7449&amp;category_id=200"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-127" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/coach2.jpg?w=120&#038;h=120" alt="" width="120" height="120" /></a></p>
<h3><span style="color:#00ccff;">LYCHEE LINE</span></h3>
<p>Recently came across the <a href="http://lycheeline.com/12about.html">Lychee Line</a> brand, where the essence of the brand originated                      from South Africa&#8217;s rich culture, art and exotic tradition. Its <a href="http://lycheeline.com/littlelychee1.html" target="_blank">Madeline</a> line is a pleasantly disguised diaper bag designed for modern mom.  &#8220;Each is handmade with high quality custom faux leather, lined and and flaunts a stretchy pocket on the outside that holds a bottle (water bottle, baby bottle, sippy cup, or coffee cup). Comes in chocolate, black licorice, key lime, green apple, blueberry, and raspberry.&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="http://lycheeline.com/littlelychee1.html"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-129" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/lycheeline.jpg?w=120&#038;h=120" alt="" width="120" height="120" /></a></p>
<h3><span style="color:#00bfff;">RIAN</span></h3>
<p><a href="http://store.rianhandbags.com">Rian</a> offers leather bags that features cartoon like prints of major cities around the world as part of its design.  The design is fun but with a high price tag.</p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><a href="http://store.rianhandbags.com/towermommy.html" target="_blank"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-44" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/rian1.jpg?w=120&#038;h=126" alt="" width="120" height="126" /></a></span></strong><strong>Tower Mommy</strong></p>
<p>The <a href="http://store.rianhandbags.com/mommyblack.html">Tower Mommy</a> line features Paris as its print and comes in three different color choices. The diaper bag comes with changing mat and inside bottle holders an diaper pockets with dividers.</p>
<h3><span style="color:#00bfff;"> PETUNIA PICKLE BOTTOM</span></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.petuniapicklebottom.com/about/">Petunia Pickle Bottom</a> was also founded on the desire to bring style and sophistication to modern parenting. Its design uses bold lines and daring colors and fabrics to create a distinctive style to differentiate from other bags in the market.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.petuniapicklebottom.com/collections/cake/cosmopolitancarryall/pistachiolayercake/" target="_blank"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-45" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/picklebottom.jpg?w=120&#038;h=126" alt="" width="120" height="126" /></a>Cosmopolitan Carryall Pistachio Layer Cake</strong></p>
<p>This doctor style bag is vintage inspired with European cut velvet and coordinating Moss Green wool tweed and Moss Green lining. I&#8217;m not a fan of velvet but I&#8217;m sure there&#8217;s an audience out there for it. They also have the <a href="http://www.petuniapicklebottom.com/collections/cake/societysatchel/">Society Satchel</a> another unique design. I have seen the Satchel in store and to be honest it was a little too old looking for my taste.</p>
<h3><span style="color:#00bfff;"> OiOi</span></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.oioi.com.au/index.php?s=about" target="_blank">Oioi</a> is an australian brand but available in the US market.  It seems like most of their designs run in black or charcoal colors and my favorite is the Black Floral Jacquard Carry All below.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/oioi.jpg"></a><a href="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/oioi.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-49" src="http://niuwi.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/oioi.jpg?w=120&#038;h=126" alt="" width="120" height="126" /></a>Black Floral Jacquard Carry All</strong></p>
<p>This diaper bag has a slightly different shape than the others that I&#8217;d featured above with black/charcoal floral prints. The interior has green lining and comes with a large padded microfibre change mat.

<h3><span style="color:#00ccff;">LeSPORTSAC</span></h3>
<p>LeSportsac is known for its colorful designs and fun prints. Their casual nylong bags are lightweight and functional which makes it easy to carry around. Although the diaper bag shapes are not exactly hip and stylish, I like the cute prints on this and comes with a changing pad.

<h3><span style="color:#00ccff;">CHLOE</span></h3>
<p>Chloe, another expensive name brand label, also offers diaper bag selection. The white Chloe Diaper Bag below is made in France and being sold on <a href="http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod54060008&amp;cmCat=search&amp;searchType=" target="_blank">Nemian Marcus</a> for $812!</p>

<h3><span style="color:#00ccff;">Dior</span></h3>
<p>Dior offers a baby collection for their fashion line and the white Dior Diaper Bag below is a new find on <a href="http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod62720008&amp;parentId=cat17310753&amp;masterId=cat8590745&amp;index=2&amp;cmCat=cat000000cat000001cat000009cat000019cat8590745cat17310753" target="_blank">Neiman Marcus</a>. I can&#8217;t imagine keeping clean of a white diaper bag but I guess for those who are more concerned about fashion than function, this might be one for consideration. It looks like the inside opens up into a gray teddy bear-print changing pad and sold for $450.</p>

<h3><span style="color:#00ccff;">GUCCI</span></h3>
<p>If you&#8217;re looking for an Italian made diaper bag and not worried about price, this <a href="http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod35330044&amp;cmCat=search&amp;searchType=" target="_blank">Gucci Diaper Bag</a> is up for consideration. This beige-ebony diaper bag also comes in black and currently sold for $975 at Neiman. I&#8217;m not too fond of the style since it&#8217;s a little bulky looking like a camera bag.</p>
