As a mom of three, I’ve packed every kind of bag you can imagine—diaper bags, overnight bags, beach bags, even bags that double as snacks-for-the-whole-family carriers. So when I say I’m picky about the bags I use, I mean it. If it’s going to come with me to the pool or the lake, it needs to do three things: hold everything, wipe clean, and still look cute.
That’s exactly why I created our Hollis nylon collection—bags that work but don’t look like they’re working overtime.
The Wipeable Pouch That Saves the Day
Let’s start with the thing I can’t live without: a wipeable pouch. Between sunscreen leaks, juice boxes, and wet swimsuits, having something that can be tossed in my bag and wiped clean is a non-negotiable. I keep one in every bag I carry—especially my diaper bag.
My go-to? Our pink ruffle pouch from the floral collection. It’s girly, practical, and always earns compliments. I use it for everything: snacks, lip gloss, even a spare diaper if we’re on the go.
Backpacks for Moms Who Don’t Stop
If you’re like me and have one kid on your hip and another running ahead, backpacks are your best friend. I use mine as a diaper bag all the time, and no one ever guesses that’s what it is. The inside is roomy enough for all the kid things—diapers, wipes, snacks, changes of clothes—and the wipeable lining? A total lifesaver.
Plus, our floral nylon backpacks aren’t just for moms. I’ve seen teens grab them for sleepovers, customers use them as work bags, and travelers love them as carry-ons.
The Weekender That Actually Fits It All
Packing for a lake weekend with kids is… a sport. That’s where the Hollis weekender comes in. I’ve packed this thing for family trips, girls’ getaways, even just a day at the splash pad when I knew we’d need backup clothes, towels, and snacks.
It fits pouches, towels, toys, and then some—without looking bulky. I always say, if you’re bringing kids, bring the weekender.
Built for Real Life, But Always Pretty
What I love most is that everything in our nylon floral collection is just as pretty as it is practical. You don’t have to choose between being the mom who’s prepared and the mom who’s pulled together—you get to be both.
From the ruffled pink pouch I toss in my bag every day to the floral weekender I pack for long weekends, each piece was made to feel special and survive your real-life moments.
