One of my product reviewers just had a baby boy and really needed a good diaper bag for all of his baby things. She chose the Prive diaper bag in Navy stripe to review.
It arrived rather quickly she said and she could not have been more happy with it! Please read her review, below!
I’ve been using my Foxy Vida
It has just the right amount of pockets. The changing pad is super nice and I like that you can be consistent with which side is up/down, but I do wish it was a little bigger is size. Besides that, I love this bag and I’m going to get one for my friend who is expecting, it would be a great baby shower gift! Another great plus is my husband takes the baby’s bag and doesn’t put up a fuss that it looks too “girly“.
As you can see, my reviewer is really pleased with the Prive Diaper Bag in Navy Stripe from Foxy Vida!

Yes, it happened. I was down and needed a little encouragement and direction. You know, when you are looking for answers on a certain subject, sometimes it may feel as though you are searching and searching and, why can’t the answer appear right in front of my face? I had that moment where, in my ultimate frustration, I could not see what was literally staring me in the face! Simply because I was wrapped up in the moment of not being able to “see-the-forest-through-the-trees”.
My “tree’s” where just about to be cleared….
Last year for Mother’s day, I received a large beautiful purple Orchid plant. It bloomed like CRAZY, for about 5 months! I was so taken back by its beauty and longevity. Once it lost all of its flowers, I asked my husband (because I do have thumbs but they are definitely not green) “what do we do now, throw it away?” Awful, I know… but true. I sincerely did not know to do with it. I know it’s a plant and maybe we can stick it in the ground and pray for new life to form, but I had to be realistic, and it definitely would not survive if I am it’s maternal caretaker. I can raise the heck out of kids and animals, but plants are another story!
So, my husband suggested we set it by the windowsill, and water it every week, and see what happens. So, that we did. Keep in mind, there was just a lifeless-looking stem after the blooms has all fallen off , that we were caring for.
Fast forward to March 2015. Well “Hello” little tiny bud…. and another, and wait, holy hotdog, another?”-I said. (Obviously talking to my 4yr old) The little “dead” plant was showing the teeny-tiniest bit of life. I was totally shocked! I had zero faith that this little guy was ever going to make it. That was a fantastic moment. But, what made it even more fantastic was about a week later there were about 8 blooming Orchids! But- it gets better. Again, you remember that I was searching, frustrated, “without hope”, trying to find the answer to an issue that I had been facing to metaphorically “see the forest through the trees”. And this little “dead” plant sure taught me a lesson.
You see, I opened my eyes, and here was this plant stem, curved and veering to the left. No blooms to spare and lifeless and hopeless looking. But from that stem there grew life. Life was growing in a new direction. The new stems, where growing to the right. Yes, it was becoming clear to me. My recent path was the stem to the left. Once I reached a dead-end, I thought the journey was over. Ok, bury me now. Throw me out with the trash, I give up, this journey is over. But that journey, no matter the “dead-end” that I was faced with, turned into a door leading into a new direction– New life. New blooming beautiful, life. My journey was not over, I was on the right path. It just took a turn. I had the opportunity to use that experience to cultivate a new direction, and it was my choice to take it and run!
I have been on that path for about 2 weeks now, and I have to say, it’s a roller coaster, but I like the feeling of being able to cultivate a new experience instead of scaling my energy back and just calling it a “failure”. Our failures are our biggest tools for advancing ourselves, and ultimately become our successes. It’s all a matter of perception and if we are willing to love ourselves and get right back up and bloom– in another direction sometimes.
Thanks for reading the longest blog of my career thus far! I hope you enjoyed and will share. If you dig it, I will write more!
