Here's a great review for all the moms out there: "Somehow this ended up being the BEST mini diaper bag when we're going somewhere for a short time and I don't need our big diaper bag. It can fit a small wallet, my phone, keys, diapers, wipes, and a change of baby clothes! It's the perfect size and hugs close to the body so it doesn't get in your way while out and about. Definitely will be recommending it to all my friends who are also moms!"
