Maggie Bags Tote of Many Colors Solid Zipper Top Review & Discount Code! Exp. 3/31


Maggie Bags are made with automotive seat belt webbing which is built to meet government safety standards to protect us while in a vehicle. With the governments high standards, millions of yards of seat belt material are rejected each year by automakers, so Maggie Bags uses as much of these rejected materials as possible to create their durable seat belt purses and handbags. Maggie Bags launched their first line of unique seat belt handbags in the spring of 2009 with only a handful of retailers and a small online store. However, today their fashionable and functional seat belt purses and handbags can be found in hundreds of retailers across the United States as well as many online retail stores and their very own online store. Maggie Bags began with their parent company, Adrian's Inc., launching their Tennessee Webbing Products in 1991, this has helped keep millions of yards of narrow fabrics out of landfills ever since. 

Tote of Many Colors

Tote of Many Colors ($72ARV) is offered in various bold colors, including just one solid color as I received or various coordinating colors. You can also choose between a zipper closure top or an open top with no closure. This is an extra large and very roomy tote bag that will hold everything you need or want to take with you! The Tote of Many Colors (TMC) is Maggie Bags best-selling bag of all time! While the inside of the bag is a wide open roomy "pocket" for you to place your things, there is a hidden outer pocket (see pic below) that is perfect for keys, phone, camera and other smaller items.



Enough cloth diaper for two and look at all of that extra room I have still! In almost every other bag I've ever tried to use as a diaper bag that wasn't a duffel bag, the cloth diapers alone took up nearly all of the room. 


Yes, that is correct! I packed out TMC with everything we need for a whole day away from home including:
  •  cloth diaper for two (about 10-12 diapers)
  • 2 outfits (one for each of the boys)
  • folder with Ezio's allergy info as well as his EpiPen Jr. 
  • sippy cups (usually 2)
  • snacks
and as you can see there is still plenty of room if we need to bring anything else. This "extra" room is usually filled up by a few toys or books if we're going somewhere with out entertainment for the boys. Or once we get to where we're going their jackets and Cade's puppy b get shoved in there as well.
I am almost certain that Ezio, my 30 pound two year old could fit in this bag and it would definitely hold his weight! That is another awesome thing about Maggie Bags, they are incredible strong and durable! I also have a Campus Tote which is what we used as our diaper bag before receiving this TMC. We've never had a single issue with either bag when it comes to wear and tear and we've had the Campus Tote for about 8 months now and received this TMC in January 2014. I absolutely love all of the various color, shapes and sizes that are offered from Maggie Bags. 
I will never have enough Maggie Bags! 
Discount Code!

Potion 3 - Facial Oil for Normal, Combination, Dry, Oily, Sensitive and Mature Skin

Potion #3 is a Facial Oil is safe for all skin types and can be used as a replacement of your moisturizer, unless you have very dry skin. So why would a facial oil be beneficial over a lotion? Because the molecules are much smaller making them more readily absorbed for maximum benefits!
