I highly recommend this bag for anyone who is busy, constantly on the go, and needs to have their hands free.  Whether you're a mom or a student, you can't go wrong with the Baby Phat drawstring bag.  It measures 16" tall and (depending on the style) can be approximately between 12"-14" wide.  Roomy enough to fit small packages while shopping, mittens, scarves, toys, your lunch, etc . . .

The drawstring is very easy to close . . . just pull the two shoulder straps.  While the bag is worn, it is very difficult for anyone to access your bag without your knowing.  The webbed straps are adjustable and extremely comfortable to wear.

These retail for below $40 on the Baby Phat website and can also be found on sites like Ebay.  I've seen them in soft synthetic leather, twill, and nylon.  The bags are usually lined in bright satin, so that it is easy to see your belongings inside.  Some bags have small zippered compartments on the outside, but not all.

There are usually several styles and colors offered every season, which almost always includes one solid-colored style and one or more printed styles.  No matter your taste (except if it is extremely conservative) you will probably find a bag that can work for you.  Even a solid bag, however, will have a little "bling" to it.  Each bag sports the Baby Phat logo which usually has a little sparkle to it.  This bag can be worn with sweats, skirts, jeans, or suits . . . everything except formal attire.

I loved my first one so much that I bought a second one.  I am now on the look out for a third.  The price is right, so I can afford to own different colors.  A bag of this size made of manmade materials in a department store these days, would start at $60.

I love the Baby Phat brand and that is a decent price for this bag. I want one now!
