Lily Jade: Stylish & Versatile Bags for Busy Moms

This post, Stylish & Versatile Bag for Busy Moms, is sponsored by Lily Jade. As always, all opinions are my own and I only recommend products I truly love.

Let’s face it. Moms live busy lives. 

It doesn’t matter if you are home with the kids (because are you really always home??) or working full-time. Being a mom requires a lot from you. 

One area that sometimes is overlooked is the need for a way to transport all the things. 

Even though I am past the baby stage of life, there is still the need to bring a lot of stuff wherever I go.

The days of small bags were left behind when autoimmune issues crept up. Why?  Because I now need to carry things like Epi-pens and other first response medications. And they take up space.

Plus, if I am taxiing my boys around town I take my tablet for getting some work done or a Kindle to read.

Meet the Jennifer Tote in Brandy/Gold from Lily Jade

Ah, Jennifer is the answer to this busy mom’s dreams.

She’s elegant. Just look at that gorgeous leather!

There’s a big open expanse of space for me to fill.

Lily Jade sells packing cases to help organize your bags.

Because this mama knows you need to corral all the things so you can find what you want.

And, best of all, the matching bag strap can be used to enable a backpack carry for this tote!

Introducing Caroline, a Vegan Bag

While I truly adore the Jennifer tote, I am completely blown away by the new vegan bag by Lily Jade.

Her name is Caroline and she is a dream.

From a distance, you can’t even tell this is a vegan leather bag.

It is stunning to behold.

I’ve had people come up and ask me where I got the bag.

Aside from the gorgeous stone color, there are a few things that make this one an everyday favorite.

First off, the backpack carry is reinvented with the straps built into the bag. If you are not going to use them, you store them into a zippered pocket.

Secondly, there are so many built in pockets (open and zippered) that it is easy to find a place for all the things. This came in very handy when my eldest had outpatient surgery. Instead of a purse plus a tote, everything fit into my bag with room to spare.

This one is part of the diaper bag collection. Yet, no one need know that was the original purpose for this bag’s design.

It is taller and narrower than the Jennifer, as you can see in this side by side photo.

What Makes Lily Jade Unique?

Now, I know that it is easy to go cheap when it comes to accessories when you are a mom.

However, I can tell you from first-hand experience that the ‘leather’ bags bought at mainstream retailers have always given up on me after a year or two. 

Lily Jade stands above those offerings for a variety of reasons making it a wonderful handbag investment.

How?

* Quality First to provide more value per dollar.
* Use of premium tumbled full-grain leather. (Except for the Caroline bag.)
* Incredible plush liner to protect the inside.
* Built to last by paying attention to details like tucking in the leather on our handles, straps, and
pocket edges so that you don’t have edge paint that will wear and crack over time. They also reinforce stitching in critical places.
* Details in stitching and the way they make their tassels that add beauty and dimension to the bags. No skimping here!
* Designed for all seasons of motherhood 
* Unique strap allows you to wear this normally or backpack style.

When you get your Lily Jade bag, they include a booklet showing more about the bags. This includes visual instructions on how to convert for the backpack carry.

An Experience Filled Future with Bags for Busy Moms

I definitely see my new Jennifer tote staying with me for years to come. The same goes for my Caroline. They serve slightly different needs both for functionality and style.

Quality matters and taking care of a well-constructed bag can mean years (even decades!) of usefulness. 

So now my first thought is where this tote will be going with me over the next few months…

holiday shopping?
weekend getaway?
on the plane?
or all the places??

Accessories from Lily Jade

Since the main bags can easily need some help being organized to find all the things, the company has several accessories to help the busy mom.

Because bags for busy moms need some organization to find all the things.

Packing Cubes Help Organize Bags for Busy Moms

I adore these packing cubes!

I can keep my feminine hygiene products in one, personal care products in another, and basic makeup in the 3rd.

Example of the Packing Cubes in use.
