Justine, I picked up a vanchi messenger bag for $60 at an expo recently.

Obviously, my baby isn't here yet, but I'm looking forward to being able to use it. It has lots of pockets and really is HUGE inside! We got the blue one, and despite it being floral, it's the one DH really liked.

I spoke to the woman at the expo at length about what the fabric is like to care for. She recommends surface washing only, and says that it does come clean pretty easily. She also said that even though she doesn't recommend it, she has put an entire bag through the washing machine and had it come up ok.
