Trend Obsession: Backpacks

Okay. So, we all know trends come and go right? I mean, that's what fashion is all about! It repeats itself! Well, a current trend I am absolutely OBSESSING over is fashionable backpacks! I've been told I'm a bit more adventurous and sporty this pregnancy due to having a boy so this could be it too! haha! 

But back to the backpacks. I love the versatility of backpacks! It's a super chic bag for the mom on the go! It doubles as a purse, diaper bag and lunch bag! Because how annoying is it carrying a purse AND a diaper bag? SUPER! and although there are diaper brands out there that are making some fashionable diaper bags, it's still...well... A DIAPER BAG! It still feels like it's someone else's tote that you're strolling around with! I guess the backpack gives a little freedom in my opinion! It makes me feel like it's MY BAG and it represents MY STYLE, yet it carries everything I need to function with a toddler on the go! I'm definitely a fan of fashion backpacks right now! What's even better, they literally are EVERYWHERE! You can find them anywhere from Target to Nordstrom! I found a cute every day one for 12.99. SCORE! I have searched the internet for fashion backpacks I love and compiled a list of my faves! (pictured) You can see where to get them below! Happy Shopping!

Welcome to Modamomnbabes!


Welcome to Modamomnbabes!

With my very first blog post, I wanted to introduce myself  and let you all know my motivation behind creating this blog!  (I've been brainstorming and going back and forth on blog ideas literally for years haha!)

A little about me, (I hope this isn't repetitive) I am a Stay at Home mommy of a one-year old baby girl  and currently expecting baby number 2 in August! It's a boy! yay! I've been married for about 4 months now, so I guess you can say I'm still a newlywed! I am a current freelance Personal Stylist and Fashion Director for Park Lane Jewelry! (I'm in the process of transitioning from "stay at home mom" to "work from home mom" lol)

So why the blog? Why now? and What to expect?

Why the blog? Well the short answer is, I LOVE GIVING ADVICE! I'm always giving someone advice on something rather it's an outfit, relationship problem, party idea, etc. I just love sharing my brain with people so why not a blog?! 

After leaving my corporate job with event sales in March, I knew the time was now to dive into what I love! I love my family, I love fashion, I love trying out new products and giving my opinion so why not share these things online?

You can expect pretty much anything mommy related here! However, you don't have to be a mom or mommy to be to engage and get to know me! I'm here to build a relationship with my readers, answer your questions, give advice on things you want see and make more friends! The posts you will see will range from product reviews to fashion/style posts, mommy/pregnancy posts and you may even see some event planning posts! Nothing is off limits here! I'm a mom and as we all know that title wears many hats! 

So stay tuned, have fun and let's be friends!
