Fabulous Fall Bags That Double As Baby Bags 

Rebecca Minkoff. Nikki microfiber snakeskin hobo, $398

 

Who made the rule that because you're a mom who have to carry one of those puffy pink or blue cotton diaper bags with the bunny rabbits?

You can just as easily remain the fly fashionista you have always been and put the diapers, wipes and random tiny toy in a fashion forward pocketbook.

Here are a few bags that will function as your favorite everyday tote and hold all the mom-necessities you can muster. Tip: Put anything and everything that could even remotely spill in a plastic sealing bag (ie: Ziploc).

The snakeskin "Nikki" Rebecca Minkoff bag (above) has a pretty hefty price, but you can use it year round. The lightweight Microfiber looks and feels, as the site says, as wild as a python.

Jessica Simpson Midtown Crossbody Bag, $49.95

Be on-trend and economical with this cross-body bag from Jessica Simpson's line of accessories. Available in black and beige it has more then enough pockets to for all that you caould possibly need.

Steve Madden Handbag, Candy Studs Satchel, on sale $65.99

If you are a new mom who is not willing to give up a little bit of the cutesy, here's a bag for you. The poppy pink color makes it eyecandy and the goldtone studs add a "check me out" edge.

Mel B's Reality Show: Will You Tune In?

 

Mel B's reality show "It's a Scary World" debuts on the Style Network this Sunday, September 5 @ 9PM ET/PT. While she hasn't really been on my radar, I have to admit, I'll be watching her show. Seems like a real show--as real as reality TV can get--tackling real issues. The clip below shows Mel in a dilemma as her ex-Eddie Murphy invites their daughter (Angel, 3 1/2, who Eddie once denied was his) to the premiere of his movie "Shrek."

Faith Evans Gives Us 'Something'

Faith Evans is still doing it! The mom of four is dropping her new album, Something About Faith, on October 5 and she just released the tracklisting. Guests on the new set include Keyshia Cole, Kelly Price and Mary Mary...sounds like some great harmonies will be going on there. She also tips her hat to her hip-hop roots with appearances by Redman, Raekwon (Shaolin shout-out) and Snoop Dogg. I don't know about you, but Snoop has been a downer on R&B tracks lately for me (see the Robin Thicke collabo "It's In The Morning")

Listen to the Raekwon track "Everyday Struggle." (shouts to ToyazWorld.com) Loves it!

1. Something About Faith Intro
2. Still
3. Way You Move feat. Snoop Dogg
4. Gone Already
5. Worth It
6. Real Things
7. Party feat. Redman
8. Right Here
9. Your Lover (Part I & Part II)
10. Can’t Stay Away feat. Keyshia Cole
11. Sunshine
12. Everyday Struggle feat. Raekwon
13. The Love In Me
14. Change feat. Mary Mary
15. Troubled World feat. Kelly Price & Jessica Reedy

At any rate, I'm looking forward to new music from Faith Evans.

And the latest on Faye Dunaway? She's a real, real redhead. Don't know who had it first, her or Rihanna. What do you think of the realy red?

Jen And Ben Affleck Are Cool With Me

Is it shallow of me to like Jennifer Garner (Affleck) a little bit more daughter Violet was spotted carrying a little black doll? The actress wrapped shooting the movie Arthur last week in New York City and took in a few sites, including the Guggenheim Museum.

Parents: Do you give your kids dolls of different colors/ethnicities?

It was a beautiful night Saturday on Governors Island in NY, when the Rock The Bells tour rolled through...

The look on Chris Rock's face as Lauryn Hill introduced her gang of kids...priceless.
