Nowadays, leaving the house is easy and we aren't as crazy about brining so much stuff with us. I'm even planning to add a box to my trunk with some essentials like extra diapers and wipes, a change of clothes and changing pad so if we ever forget something we will have backup (seriously, how have I not done this already?)
Oftentimes we'll leave the house for a short amount of time (like when we head to Little Gym class or go out for lunch) and lugging around the diaper bag is such a hassle for those quick trips.
So when the ladies at Elari (based in my hometown of Toronto!) reached out to me to try out their diaper wallet, I took them up on it wondering if It would be that "in between" baby item we needed---better than nothing at all (duh) but not like a larger diaper bag (which I still need, but not for quick errands).
I selected their limited edition "pick me a peony" diaper wallet. I liked the bold color and that it was navy blue on the inside. The changing pad design is also a really cute pattern.
Inside there's an area for diapers, a zipped waterproof pocket for wipes and another pocket with three slots on the front for various items.
I keep two diapers, wipes, boogie wipes, the changing pad, hand santizier and a mini sunscreen in mine. Though I bring it with us for shorter errands out of the house, I've never had to use it because we haven't had any incidents yet.
It's been packed for weeks and the wipes are still moist, which is great. You could also put a smaller pack of wipes into it, but I just used the special pouch to store them.
The changing pad is thin (not padded) but for quick changes it will get the job done. There's velcro to keep it neatly stored when not in use.
Overall, I'm really happy to have this for those quick trips out of the house---it's so easy to just grab it and go. I talked to the founders of Elari about adding more colors/designs/fabrics and possibly offering a personalized monogram as well as having gold hardware on some styles instead of silver. Maybe I'm just trying to turn this into a clutch for myself, haha. It doesn't hurt to have something super chic and incredibly useful, right?
