Simply-Bags: Personalized Lunch Bags and Much More!

School starts today for my girlies, and they are super excited to get back into the swing of things at school.  Back to School means that our Back to School Blowout is still going strong…make sure you’ve checked out all of the back to school products we’ve introduced you too and don’t forget to enter all of the fabulous giveaways as well! 

One of my girls’ favorite parts of back to school shopping is picking out a new lunchbox!  I can’t say I blame them, I remember the excitement of packing my lunch up in a brand new lunchbox and showing it off to all of my friends.  Of course, not all lunchboxes are created equal and finding one that is just right is a major undertaking, especially for my girl Savanna.  Savanna is the type of girl who likes things exactly the way she liked them and as a result of that perfectionism she is not so easy to please.

So we go lunchbox shopping and after what seemed like hours of scouring the shelves and turning her nose up at most of the lunchboxes, Savanna exclaims that she cannot find a lunchbox that she likes.  We leave the stores with no lunchboxes and one very disappointed Savanna.  On the way home from our unsuccessful shopping trip Savanna tells me, “Mom I want a lunchbox that is cute and unique and not too girly…something that’s made for me!”  A few days later I received an email from a company requesting a review called Simply Bags, I go to their website to have a look around and spot their selection of lunch bags …and I knew that I had found exactly what Savanna was looking for!  Simply Bags is a company who specializes in monogrammed bags; from personalized tote bags and laptop bags to diaper bags and embroidered lunch bags, Simply Bags is a haven for people who want something different and special in a bag! 

For my review I decided on a embroidered lunch bag for Savanna.  Their lunch bags are insulated and include complimentary embroidery or monogramming.  We decided on having her name embroidered in pink on the front of the blue polka dot bag.  Simply Bags has an impressive selection of lunch bags to choose from as well.  When I received Savanna’s lunch bag from Simply Bags I couldn’t wait to see it.  I have to tell you that when I opened the box and saw the bag I was completely surprised and greatly impressed at how fabulous it was.  From it’s adorable half blue, half blue and white polka dot pattern to the cute little pink and green flowers embroidered in the corner it was just so cute.  And when I saw how incredible her name looked on the front I knew that we had made the right choice and that Savanna had found THE lunch bag for this school year.  Aside from the color and amazing embroidery job, I was shocked at how much room the lunch bag had inside.

Fun in the Sun Day 11…Cafe Press Beach Tote

There are only two more giveaway’s in the Fun in the Sun event…I hope you’ve all had a blast so far and found some great products to keep you having fun in the sun all summer long!  Make sure you check out my sidebar for all of the awesome Fun in the Sun giveaways!

What’s more fun than soaking up the sun at the beach, or even the local pool?  Of course, taking children with you to the beach means taking lots of stuff with you; sunscreen, goggles, books, you name it you need to take it.  That makes having the perfect beach tote a necessity!

I was recently introduced to Cafe Press a company that specializes in unique and personalized gifts for any occasion.  Aside from beach totes Cafe Press has an number of items that can be personalized; hats, t-shirts, hoodies, mousepads, Christmas ornaments, and so many more!  And since our fun in the sun party wouldn’t be complete without a great beach tote, that is exactly what I will be reviewing (and giving away to a couple of you).    I haven’t reviewed my tote bag yet so make sure to be on the lookout for the review in the coming weeks!

Now I may not have had the pleasure of doing my review yet, but I still have something special for all of you! Two (yes 2) Misadventures in Baby Raising readers will be getting a beach tote of their own!
