One of the biggest maternity fashion trends has been the adoption of cool baby change bags by moms to be and new mums. Gone are the days when moms would throw baby paraphenalia into whatever bag they had close at hand. Having a matching “pram bag” is also no longer as popular - beautiful baby changing bags which compete with up to the minute fashion bags are the key trend today.

These new styles of baby changing bags hold their own in the fashion stakes yet are robust and large enough to be a practical option. When you are choosing a baby change bag you need to bear in mind that this is an investment buy which should not only see you through your baby's early days but still be around for any later additions to the family. But when you’ve finished using your bag to carry baby items, the best baby changing bag will convert effortlessly into all purpose designer bag.

When you are selecting your new baby change bag there are several key style points you should be aware of:

Materials - you are no longer restricted to “wipe-clean vinyl” - the new range of baby change bags include tactile fabric and bold prints. Leather is the hottest trend at the moment and a leather baby change bag will not only turn heads but age well and endure the rough and tumble of the early days.

Accessories - the newest bags include many accessories to make life easy for the new mom, but which can be removed when the time for fashion bag conversion arrives! Matching travel wipe holders, changing mats and insulated holders for food or liquids are practical accessories you cannot afford to be without.

One brand which has cornered the market in style and practicality is OI OI. OIOI first hit the scene with their unique Hobo baby change bag which has become a design classic in its own right. Completing the range this season are messenger bags (which make a perfect bag for Dads) and the robust carry-all. OIOI choose their fabrics carefully including patent leather, microfibre and wool. The standout statement piece this season though has to be the gorgeous chestnut leather Hobo.This is a gorgeous baby change bag in snakeskin printed leather with chunky metal hardware and adjustable shoulder strap. Effortlessly stylish it combines the best in practical design and its cool features mean it is a perfect baby change bag for stylish mamas.
