Chic&Cozy Blanket Bag Review and Giveaway

by Shannan on May 21, 2009

chictotsbagFor months – no, more like years, now – I have been dragging around a beat up backpack, filled with extra clothes, small toys, snacks, sippy cups, and diapers. The backpack is functional, and there’s room for plenty of stuff, but being a remnant from my college days, is far from cute and stylish.

I was offered a Chic&Cozy Blanket Bag from Chic Tots to review and snapped up the chance. Both boys are finally at an age where I don’t have to take everything and the kitchen sink, just to run out to Walmart for a quick trip, so I figured a bag like this would be right up my alley.

The Chic&Cozy Blanket Bag is one of the cutest things I have seen in awhile. It comes in six adorable styles. I was given the Desert Camo style to review. The exterior of the bag is made from a very durable fabric, while the interior is a soft, luxurious blanket. My boys are a bit big now to play on the blanket, but if sure makes a nice place for me to sit, while they’re running around outside! It is completely machine washable, which is another great bonus, especially when you have messy little boys.

What I thought was really great about the Chic&Cozy bag is its versatility. Not only can it be converted from a diaper bag to a blanket, giving babies a soft, clean place to play, but it can also be worn several different ways. Out of convenience, I used mine with the straps crisscrossed and set up like a backpack. Yeah, old habits are hard to break – plus you try chasing a 2 and 3 yr old with one hand tied down to a diaper bag!! You could also use it with shorter straps as a tote or extend them fully to make it a shoulder bag.

The only thing that I miss when using the Chic&Cozy over my regular bag is the extra space in the pockets. If I end up with wet clothes or a particularly messy diaper, there’s a chance that everything in the bag may get dirty. I’ve been keeping a plastic bag along for storage of wet and dirty clothes, to prevent myself from ruining this super cute bag while I’m using it.

Overall, I find the Chic&Cozy to be a fabulous find, AND an added selling point is that the product was designed and created by a MOM to solve her own diaper bag issues. I will definitely be hanging on to mine, even after my diaper bag days are over!

The Chic&Cozy can be purchased from the ChicTots website, with prices ranging from $49.95 to $39.95. Beginning May 24th, some styles will also be available in select Target stores across the country, so keep your eyes peeled!

ChicTots has also given me a fabulous Chic&Cozy bag to give away to one of you! To enter, simply visit the ChicTots website, then come back and let me know which of their fabulous products (besides the bag) is your favorite. It’s that easy!
