They seem to have every color and style... even the new blue San Ysidro Hobo (as well as the old orange and red colors)!! GAH. I sent the link to Wagon Sr. and he was like "ooh, messengers." HAHA!! Have I rubbed off on him??
If you need a Gilt link let me know! I just posted about it on my blog too.

@autumnlove: I know, seriously... I'm like physically restraining myself. I ALREADY HAVE ONE!

@mrs. wagon: Do you have the link? I tried searching Danzos on Gilt and couldn't find it.
hostess / wonderful persimmon / 25556 posts
Oh geez..I was just coming over here to say, "What's a Danzo?" Haha.

Ugh....I really LOVE the Retro so I am not even going to look since I might be too tempted. I just bought two bags in a three week span (one being the Hobo) and my husband would kill me. He thinks I have a problem. But I really want the Retro...
blogger / watermelon / 14218 posts
@MrsHotDog: ME TOO. gahhhhhh ok I'm going to go balance my checkbook. My version of a cold shower...
hostess / wonderful apple seed / 16729 posts
@mrs. wagon: Thanks. I didn't look in the baby section. With all the discussion lately on these bags, OMG, I want one!
I would be cray cray if I bought one now, I'm not even pregnant yet. Haha!
hostess / wonderful apple seed / 16729 posts
@mrs. wagon: Haha, yup, checking out the bank account can certainly do that for me.
blogger / watermelon / 14218 posts
@bluestriped bee: FWIW, I totally plan on using mine as a non diaper bag. FOREVER. Heehee.
on the other hand, it seems like they are really blowing up (they're on a flash sale site several times a month, it seems!) so hopefully when it comes to be your time to shop for a diaper bag, the deals will still be around... or even better!!

I have been thinking about this all day ... argh. I know I'm going to need a bigger bag once bambino 2 is here but I still am afraid this is a little *too* big?
hostess / wonderful watermelon / 39513 posts
@mrs. wagon: I saw the PPB boxy in person and I didn't like it and the Kate Spade Stevie is too small and expensive...
blogger / watermelon / 14218 posts
@Mrs. Yoyo: I'm not gonna lie, it's a big bag. If you are big bag averse, you might want to see it in person before ordering one!
That being said, this bag is not even big enough for my two kids! We carry an LL Bean tote for Wagon Jr.'s stuff. We can get away with just this one bag for the two kids, but we carry around his babybjorn potty seat and there's no way that will fit in here.

@mrs. wagon: I really think if I had the Retro in slate and the weekender bag in navy, my collection would be complete. Is that really too much to ask?! I didn't think so...
I do have to remind myself that the Retro handle doesn't seem very practical for two kids but that doesn't make me want it any less.
hostess / wonderful apple seed / 16729 posts
Oh, they have ones as low as $85- 100. Ahhh, must resist buying.
Well, my good friend is pregnant, I could get her one. 
If she doesn't like it, I think I could find someone (me!) to have it.
My secret baby stash (at work) is getting big. I do like the canvas tote one and that's only $100.

I just bought the hobo in plum off My Habit a couple wks ago! Using it today for the first time- omg loooove how organized and huge it is (I love big bags). Like @mrs. wagon: I also plan on using it forever as a non diaper bag 
love love love! Thanks for introducing me to it! 
blogger / pomelo / 5400 posts
@mrs. wagon: Not necessarily averse ... I guess I'll need a lot of space! Hmmmmmmmmmmm
blogger / watermelon / 14218 posts
@MrsHotDog: I want the weekender in navy too!!!! SO BAD!! Where do you live? Maybe we can share. HAHA!!
Honestly I think I would be ok with the tiny Retro handles because I rarely use the top handles for the Hobo. If I want to put it on my shoulder I just use the strap shortened to its shortest. It's more comfortable.
@autumnlove: REALLY!!! hahaa...... I see a Danzo in your future...
@bluestriped bee: that is an EXCELLENT idea ;D
@MungBean: YAY!!!! oh I'm so happy you like it, and you got it off myhabit!! That is my favorite flash sale site since they ship right away. HURRAY!!!

@Mrs. Yoyo: it is a big bag and right now I am only using it for one kid (number two is set to arrive in five weeks) and I think it will be a good fit. I also cloth diaper so that takes up even more room but I am so happy I got it. I know people say it is heavy but I don't notice that much. I also love to carry big purses (the bigger the purse, the skinnier you look!) so take what I say with a grain of salt.
blogger / watermelon / 14218 posts
@Mrs. Yoyo: lol! I'm spreading the Danzo gospel... I feel like a bad influence.
Just to give you an idea... when all the inside pockets are full (I keep diapers, wipes, and the changing pad in the OUTside pockets) I can fit the following in the cavity of the bag:
zip-around cosmetics bag
small accordion file for coupons
large wallet
package of boogie wipes
my work flats (I've been wearing my snow boots to work)
2 cans of diet coke
This is what I carry on a daily basis! On weekends I'll throw in a lovey or two, a toy or two... you get the picture.
hostess / wonderful apple seed / 16729 posts
Ok, the sale ends in 3.5 days. I have some time to think about it.
Does Nordstrom carry this brand? I think I want to check it out IRL before buying for my *friend*. I want to make sure it's not too big for her.

@bluestriped bee: I am a horrible friend because if I bought that for a friend, I would have kept the bag once I got my hands on it. Haha.
blogger / watermelon / 14218 posts
@MrsHotDog: *big purse hiding my mommy tummy area high five*
blogger / pomelo / 5400 posts
@mrs. wagon: Thanks, that's helpful.
I have a Storksak right now that was a lovely gift, but it's honestly a bit too small (and already starting to look a little beat up, sadly).
hostess / wonderful apple seed / 16729 posts
@MrsHotDog: Yup, I have a feeling I would do the same, but it's the idea of gifting that makes it not as bad. Haha.
hostess / wonderful watermelon / 39513 posts
I pulled the trigger on the red one...happy c-section gift to me!
blogger / watermelon / 14218 posts
@autumnlove: hehe yup! one for morning and one for afternoon.. I'm an addict. I can't trust myself with a stash here at work so I bring 2 cans a day!
here's a photo of my Danzo in action. I just shot a pic. I can't help myself. I love my bag. (and it's next to my pump bag!)
kiwi / 711 posts
@autumnlove: I am so excited for you! I hope you love it as much as I do. On a side note, when is your c-section?
persimmon / 1331 posts
I want to buy one and I'm only ttc. How can I justify this? All I can think of is ... It's a good deal?
honeydew / 7488 posts
Sigh. I'm still sooooo sad the Hobo didn't work out for me. I'm still on the hunt for a good sized, yet not heavy, diaper bag. I'm thinking I'm going to just go for just a large tote.
blogger / watermelon / 14218 posts
@Emsmems: don't ask me, I'm a bad influence... I will just push you to buy one.
@T-Mom: Have you thought about a good, structured tote with an insert like this one? My biggest requirement for a diaper bag is being able to keep a bottle upright, which is the one thing that most big, light totes don't have.
honeydew / 7488 posts
@mrs. wagon: that looks like a really cool product! I will add that to my wishlist for when I figure out my tote situation. I am kind of lusting after a Marc by Marc Jacobs diaper bag. I just don't think I want to spend the money on nylon, especially when we'll be out of diapers in less than a year (knock on wood). Thanks for all your advice so far, oh diaper bag queen
persimmon / 1331 posts
@mrs. wagon: is yours in the pic the hobo? DH might think I'm crazy if I do this... I want the slate gray one.
blogger / watermelon / 14218 posts
@T-Mom: My friend got a Marc by Marc Jacobs diaper bag (the nylon black one that's kind of quilted all over?). I think she likes it but it's not very structured. I think they have it in Nordstrom if you want to see it in person! And yes, I am the self-proclaimed diaper bag queen, to Wagon Sr.'s chagrin
@Emsmems: yup, that's the Hobo! in black.

I have serious diaper bag envy right now. I need that green bag in my life!
