Thanks ladies - your answers have been so helpful. I went out and purchased a GR8X Emily carry all (the large tote with the purple lining). It is really light and huge compared to some of the other bags. And at $89 was pretty reasonable. So whilst not the most fashionable, it'll be pretty useful I think.
I did LOVE the Isoki bags, but wow are they heavy. It just seemed too much weight for an empty bag. They would have been perfect it they could reduce the weight.
Think I'll probably grab a 'handbag' style at some point, but for the early newborn stage, I'm really happy that this bag looks like it'll do (and DH will carry it as well :-)
