When I used to think about becoming a parent, I couldn't help but envision myself toting around not only a baby but also the one million and one accessories that they require at any given moment. I knew that the baby and fashion industries had been making strides in designing more stylish diaper bags for carting around everything from bottles to diaper rash cream, but I wasn't necessarily convinced that I would find a bag that would be stylish and functional and fit my lifestyle. That is, until I was introduced to the eco-friendly Willow diaper bag from Paperclip.
What makes a diaper bag eco-friendly? For Paperclip, it means that everything is made using recycled ocean plastic. As someone who has always tried to lead an eco-friendly lifestyle (and who once told her high school guidance counselor that she wanted to be a dolphin trainer — true story), this conscious design choice is my favorite aspect. While their sustainable manufacturing initially drew me to Paperclip bags, after receiving the Willow diaper bag, I've honestly come to adore it for multiple reasons. These are some of my favorite features.
