Baby Bag Turned Career-Girl Swag

Hopelessly lost dragging around an ocean of over-stuffed arm candy? Seeking “multi-tote syndrome” salvation? The answer’s easy ’cause Rock N Moms does all the dirty work for you. Chic looking diaper bags are the latest domestic accessories re-purposed as career carry-alls. So now, you can pack it like a pro, and cut down on the fluster your morning commute causes. They’re a far cry from the mostly mundane, usually leather briefcases that leave little room for more than a laptop. I’m a fan in particular of their Jett’s Red Skull Tote. The 12x15x4 plastic-coated fabric bag boasts over 12 compartments and an awesome amount of extras. The pacifier pouch is the perfect place to store a pillbox or compact. And it even has an insulated [water] bottle holder, which saves my steno pads from sogginess and condensation. I’ve managed to make use of every single facet except the changing mat and stroller straps. The stoplight red exterior gives it that power color punch, while the subtle skull design remains edgy without being in your face. It’s not only my portable personal assistant but my purse as well, making it my solo shoulder mate for the day. *Disclaimer: Take charge ‘tude not included.

Rock Rebel strikes again with their all too easy accessories. The perfect mix of punk and propper, I can’t help but crave one in every color. And at barely $12 bucks a pop, why shouldn’t I? My pick of the minute is the Skull And Bolts Hair Band. Talk about some low maintenance lovin’.

What A Lush

Dresses are a rare ocassion for me. But for reasons unknown, I can’t seem to stop myself from stocking up on them. What can I say, I’m a sucker for a fun frock, especially this sassy number from Rock Steady. Their Sparrow Lush Dress also comes in black, but I figured I’d ditch my usual stand-by hue for something with a little more pop. Although it’s a fairly basic piece, they manage to keep it kitschy by stitching a darling little sparrow on each shoulder. Cap it off with a cute cardi like the Cherry Button and you’re set.
