If you’re anything like me, you’re carrying everything these days—snacks, sunscreen, extra clothes, water bottles… all the mom essentials. So when I find a bag that’s both pretty and practical, it immediately earns a spot in my rotation.
I recently got this personalized tote from Bogey & Byrd (they’re based right in Richmond, VA!), and I have to say—it checks every box.
First, the size. It’s extra large, which means I can throw in everything I need for a full day out—whether we’re headed to the pool, a soccer game, or just running around town. No more juggling multiple bags.
But what really sold me is the material. It’s made of durable vinyl, so it’s completely carefree. Wet towels? Spilled snacks? Grass from the sidelines? No problem. I don’t have to baby it, which—let’s be honest—is exactly what we need in this season of life.
Here it is on the back of my ebike!
And of course, the personalization is the cherry on top. They monogrammed mine with my initials and shipped it directly to my door, which makes this such an easy and thoughtful gift idea.
Another thing I love? The shop has so many cute personalized options beyond just totes—think monogrammed rattan hats, makeup bags, and beach towels. It’s the kind of place where you can find something special for just about anyone (or yourself).
With Mother’s Day coming up, I know a lot of you are starting to think about what to ask for. While sleeping in is definitely at the top of my list, I also love having something to unwrap—and this is one of those gifts that feels special but is actually something you’ll use every single day.
It would make the perfect:
- diaper bag
- soccer bag
- pool tote for summer
- or even a travel carry-all
It’s one of those pieces that just makes life feel a little more put-together (without being fussy), and I know I’ll be reaching for it all season long.
