I mentioned in the past that since I’ve become pregnant, clothes no longer tempt me. Most style don’t accommodate for a bulging belly and so many current trends are not preggers-friendly. Even shoes are losing their allure since my feet can change size depending on their mood, the weather, time of day, and my (lack of) activity levels. Therefor there is only one fashion necessity left to tempt me: Bags. Lately every second person has been asking if I’d packed my hospital bag or if I’ve bought a nappy bag. So it’s not my fault that bags have been on my mind…
Correct me if I’m wrong, I feel that many mothers lose their identity once their baby is born, their clocks are dependent on the baby, their lives revolve around the baby, they no longer have much time for themselves… I’m not saying that I’m not going to succumb to this too (well I will try very hard to resist this), but I think that a reward to yourself after having given birth is pretty deserving. Call it a ‘Push-present’, a treat to yourself or just an excuse to update your bag-robe, you have the perfect excuse! Plus, the bag is not just for mommy, it’s also for baby. So having a luxurious mommy bag (I prefer not to use the term ‘nappy bag’ because it causes all kinds of terrible visual imagery) is perfectly justified. They need to be functional, stylish, roomy and practical. Since I’ve always loved vintage pieces, I won’t look anywhere else for my lust-have than on ReebonzVintage.
Bank Fashion Dress / Vintage Necklace
As you know, ReebonzVintage is the ultimate luxury online boutique for preloved products. All designer pieces are guaranteed to be authentic because they all have to be examined by ReebonzVintage‘s Atelier of in-house artisans, trained gemmologists and watch connoisseurs. They authenticate, grade and even restore all the pieces with the utmost care. The timepieces and jewellery that we purchase even comes with its own ReebonzVintage Atelier Grading Report! If you’re into classic vintage well then you’re in luck. ReebonzVintage carry a great range of vintage Chanel and Cartier pieces that are both timeless and totally worth the investment. And you know what the best part is? ReebonzVintage has a consignment program whereby we can sell them our preloved pieces! So an extra incentive for a bag upgrade :)
The best thing about purchasing a vintage designer bag from ReebonzVintage is the added benefit of being green and environmentally friendly! You will be teaching your baby the precious lesson of recycling! :)This is my hand-picked selection of bags that I think every stylish mommy should have.

我前面在这里提到过，自从怀孕以后，衣服不再怎么吸引我了。因为我有一个鼓鼓的肚子，目前这么多流行的时装都不是合怀了孕的身材。连鞋子都失去了它们的吸引力，因为孕妇的脚容易改变大小，根据心情，天气，时间，和活动量。为此，唯有一样时尚物还能试探我：包包。最近很多人一直在问我是否打理了我的医院袋或者他们问我是否买了“妈妈包”。因此，‘包’这个主题一直在我的脑海里…
不知道我的这想法对不对，我一只觉得很多母亲自从生了宝宝后就会失去她们的特性和生分。她们的生活马上围绕着宝宝，她们不再有太多时间为自己…我很有可能可会变得这样，因为我想没有一位妈妈故意变成这样子的，都是渐渐的，但我希望我不会这样。。。我认为生完孩子后应该给自己一个奖励，是相当值得的。你的丈夫可以给你的惊喜，或者你自己善待自己。你有完美的借口！另外，这个“投资”包不光只由妈妈用，也是为宝宝用的。因此，有一个豪华的妈咪袋（我不喜欢使用“尿布袋”这个词因为它会引起各种可怕的视觉意象）是你天天能用的！包包需要是实用，时尚，宽敞，并有很多口袋。你知道，我一直很喜欢古色古香的包包，因此我推荐在ReebonzVintage上采购妈咪袋。
正如你所知道的， ReebonzVintage是网上奢侈品精品店，展示的都是二手，曾被爱过的包包。所有的品牌包保证是正宗的，因为它们必须被ReebonzVintage的工作室内部的工匠审查过才能卖。ReebonzVintage还有宝石学家及钟表鉴赏家来验证甚至恢复所有的名牌首饰，钟表及珠宝。每个ReebonzVintage的包和首饰都配有工作室的分级报告！如果喜欢经典的复古用品，那么ReebonzVintage最适合你了。 店里携带了复古的香奈儿和卡地亚的包，它们的收藏性是永恒的，完全值得投资。我最喜欢ReebonzVintage的还有一点是我们可以卖给他们我们的包和首饰！回收名牌包，为我们下一个包做准备。
从ReebonzVintage购买老式的名牌包最好的益处就是能环保！你会教你的宝宝回收这宝贵的一课！ :)以下是我挑选的一些我觉得每一个时尚的妈妈应该有的妈咪袋。
哦，如果这个周末你在墨尔本，ReebonzVintage会在INTERCONTINENTAL MELBOURNE THE RIALTO旅馆开他们著名的包包大卖！有很大的打折！请看以下的详细信息。主你采购愉快！[/spoiler]

really? Welcome to Reebonz Lilli ;)
Aah, Reebonz have too many pretty bags! Too much temptation, haha!
I do really like that Gucci leather tote…bought my first Gucci item at the Brisbane Reebonz sale the other week. Picked up a Christmas present for my sister and a beautifully soft Gucci scarf for myself. Even though summer is coming, I’ll get lots of use out of it next year right? haha! See, temptation!
Love that dress on you and hope you and bump are well and baby prep is also going well!
ooh you’re quite a devout follower of Reebonz, they love you :D Your bag can wear the scarf during summer :D
haha that’s a nice way to say “addicted to online handbag sales”! :)
I like the bag scarf tip, I will give that a try, thank you! :)

thanks lovely!
I agree, some women feel as if its the end of their world but it does not necessarily have to be so. I have a friend who enjoys her life with her newborn, although she doesn’t have as much time for herself, she does mommy&me things and her husband takes up his end of caring for both of them or taking care of the baby, so she can have a relaxing moment to herself.
I love buying pre-loved bags, sometimes you get what you want for a lower cost.
indeed Kaye, the preloved bags are better price and plus they have a history to them :D Your friend sounds like she has a very supportive husband! :)
hey! what a nice blog! thanks for lovely comment.
