just to get one thing straight. I soooo don't have the handbag gene. I HATE handbag shopping. So started reading all these comments about nappy bag brands i have NEVER heard of.. and i'm thinking, ok I must be from mars 'cos i really don't get this, and presumably you need the "bag" gene. Then I started googling the brands you've all been mentioning... wowowowowow!

I hadn't even THOUGHT about what i wanted to get. Had been offered a free 6 y.o. one from a friend that even I can tell is a little "daggy!". But you've all got me with the nappy bag bug and now I'm drooling!!! I'm thinking Jooki is gorgeous but ouch ouch on the $$. Like the look of the VanChi messenger (that green one is gorgeous!) and the Isoki. But here's a stupid question (sorry to hijack!), what's important in a nappy bag? Some seem to have cooler thingos and padded thingos - will I need all that?
