Storksak Olivia or Skip Hop?

  I have the Olivia and I found it wasn't big enough.  I switched to a LV Neverfull, which is technically not a diaper bag, but hold everything I need.  My friend had a skip hop and I swear it was like a clown car with how much would fit in there.

  While the Olivia looks cuter, I would return it.

  Does anyone have the Storsak Olivia?  I LOVE the look of it so I ordered one.  I packed it with what I think I will need for the baby to check the size (I'm a FTM) and it filled up quickly between what I think I need for the baby and what I will need for myself.   Between diapers, a couple outfits, blanket, 1 bottle and small toys it was full!  Was this bag big enough for you?

  Part of me is thinking of switching it out for the Skip Hop Studio which I think is a bit bigger, but to me it looks more diaperbag-ish. 

  Any experience with one or both of these?

  I have a Skip Hop Studio and I'm pretty sure my son could live out of it for 2 days.  I have diapers, wipes, an extra blanket and outfit, 2 toys, and a couple bottles of ready to feed formula/nipples in the main part.  In the outside pockets I have burp cloths and bibs, bags for really smelly diapers, pacis, travel lotion and baby wash, diaper rash cream, tylenol, boogie wipes, gas drops,  and a pocket for me that holds my keys, lip gloss and cell phone.  There are also 2 additional side pockets that I put bottles in, or sometimes my sunglasses.  Seriously, I cannot imagine another diaper bag.  This one holds so much, but it still feels organized-which is really important to me because I am so anal about that stuff.  

   ETA:  and FWIW, I love the way this bag looks.  I have been told by several people that it looks like a purse.  I personally think it looks like a diaper bag, but a really cute one.

  I have the Olivia and up until now it has always worked out well for me. I usually have 4 diapers on me with a wipes case, 1 extra outfit, 2 books, snack container, sippy, wallet, glasses, and phone. When she was younger I also would carry a bib, spit up rag, and a blanket. I love the fact that the Olivia looks more like a purse than a diaper bag.

  Now that I will be having two under two I got the skip hop duo (I think that's what its called). It is huge and I'm sure I won't have any problems fitting everything I need in there.

  ETA: I also keep a tube of butt paste, sun screen, a comb, and hand sanitizer in the little pouch at all times.
