    Do any LV bags have internal pockets? I have a Speedy, and it's impossible to find anything in that beast. Is he neverfull the same? I've been contemplating getting one, but sadly there is no LV around to check it out.

    Sorry to hijack!

      My Neverfull has one big pocket, which is all I need. Since its a tote, things don't really get lost in it.

          I just use smaller bags/cosmetic type cases inside my biggest LV. It helps... Most of the time

              Oh but I do have one with two internal pockets (very small pockets). I totally forget what it is called.. it isn't a speedy... But kind of similar- flat bottom with rounded top. Anyhow, that one is old too - it has a little cell phone pocket which doesn't really fit an iPhone all that well - I just use that for keys now. The problem with that one is the handles don't fit over my arm, so it's kind of annoying as an everyday bag (although I used it as one for a bit). I tend to use that one when we go out to dinner or something when DH is on call because it is just big enough to fit an iPad (for those fun times when he looks at scans during dinner).

                I don't have a "diaper bag" either, I carry this Baggalini tote bag:

                http://www.bagsbuy.com/baggallini-on...121601/1006100

                It has tons of inside pockets, three separate compartments (one zipped), and the material is nice and sturdy.

                I like it, and have gotten lots of compliments on it.

                  I have a Coach tote from the Poppy line. Holy moly, that thing is a workhorse. I am NOT easy on handbags, it has had milk spilled in it, food, make-up, etc. and the interior cleans up like a dream. It only has a few pockets so it's kind of like a huge cavern but it works for me because I typically find pockets a PITA because they never are designed for the things I would use them for. For my next baby I'm going with a Disney Dooney and Bourke like this: http://www.disneystore.com/disney-st...atchallpartial

                  Have fun shopping!!

                    If we need to pack up things for the kids I just throw them in a LLBean tote. I'm not organized enough for pockets.

                      When I didn't want to carry my diaper baby + purse, I always opted to put a few diapers, wipes & changing pad in my giant Dooney & Burke purse. I carried that for 2 years -- it was perfect (and still is, but I needed a change).

                          I keep a Kate Spade diaper bag in the car (with all the baby related stuff) and have a large Marc Jacobs as my purse. We are usually never too far from the car and in that case, I have the basket on the bottom of the stroller. Just in case though, I have one diaper and some wipes in a large ziplock in my purse.

                          I would look at Kate Spade bags at an outlet (or during their numerous online sales). I like their nylons because they're super light and can be wiped clean. Although after a couple of years of abuse, the stitching on the handle is becoming undone.

                              What I did was I cut out part of a changing pad that I had never used. It had the mesh thing with the zipper with pockets that you can put diapers and bottles in. Then I put that inside my Longchamp tote (which only has one pocket), and voila- diaper bag! The mesh compartmenty thing basically lines the inside of the bag even though it isn't attached. Because it's the right size, it basically just stays in place. Like other people have said, I also keep various little pouches with zippers inside so it's easy to find things. Ziploc bags are great for that too in a pinch. I only recently starting using the Longchamp bag as a diaper bag, so I don't know how it will hold up, given the fact that the material is quite thin, but the upside of thin material is that it's very lightweight-unlike the actual diaper bag I have which was super heavy. So hard to find the perfect bag, right?
