Livin' The Green Life: Itzy Ritzy Review & Giveaway


Here at MCO, we consider ourselves to be semi-crunchy, that's why we're so excited to be participating in the Livin' The Green Life Giveaway Event! 

*I received complimentary Itzy Ritzy products for review in exchange for my honest thoughts and opinions*

Itzy Ritzy is a firm believer that it is possible to parent with style. Their collection of baby and toddler accessories bring parents attractive and smart solutions to parents everyday challenges. From car seat covers to eco-friendly reusable bags, Itzy Ritzy has you covered! Itzy Ritzy products are available in thousands of retailers across the world and are used by your everyday parents (and even celebrities!).

When Itzy Ritzy told me they were interested in being apart of the Livin' The Green Life event I was very excited! I have been using Itzy Ritzy's wet bags since Baby A was born and we have a small collection of their reusable snack bags as well! The wet bags have always been a personal favorite just because of their convenience! Infants are constantly spitting up, having blow outs, and don't even get me started on when they start eating puree's! Needless to say, wet bags come in handy for even those who do not cloth diaper! The reusable snack bags are also something that my family relies on! Even Mr. Hunky takes them to work! 


Itzy Ritzy sent me a medium Travel Happens Medium Wet Bag in Sight Word Soup and Snack Happens Reusable Snack & Everything Bag in Dino-Mite. They were both so cute, I couldn't wait to use them!


When I opened up the wet bag, I was so impressed with the beautiful, vibrant colors of the words and how although the wet bag wasn't covered in flowers or butterflies, it was still very girly and cute! The medium wet bag is large, measuring 11" X 14" and is perfect for soiled clothing or diapers, swimwear, or just about anything else you can think to use it for.



The inside features a leak resistant lining and has a zippered closure to prevent leaks and odors. The perfect example of how well this little wet bag works is a few days ago when I had a complete mommy moment and left a soiled diaper (in the wet bag), inside of my diaper bag. *GASP*. When I discovered I had left the dirty diaper in there I was immediately disgusted and terrified that my diaper bag would smell. Thankfully, the Travel Happens Wet Bag held the odor in of the diaper inside of the bag and my diaper bag didn't smell at all! Wooohoo!


I had big plans for the Travel Happens Wet Bag and planned to use it as a much needed travel bag for when I fly. I often bring liquids in my suitcase (shampoo, conditioner, etc) and always fear that they will explode, so I put them into a plastic bag. On my last trip home I decided to use one of Baby A's wet bags instead and absolutely loved it! I was excited to receive such an adorable print from Itzy Ritzy and am excited to use it for my future travels. It holds a bottle of shampoo, a bottle of conditioner, a bottle of body wash, and my razor perfectly! 


The Snack Happens Reusable Snack & Everything Bags have become a staple in our household. Whether I'm using them for Baby A's snacks or in Mr. Hunky's lunch, I always reach to grab a Snack Happens bag rather than a plastic ziplock bag. One of my favorite things about these bags is how roomy they are and how they can hold something as big as a sandwich or even something little teddy grahams!  


As with the wet bags, the Snack Happens bags are lined with a leak resistant lining and have a zipper closure to also prevent leaks and odors. 


Baby A is able to hold his Snack Happens bags perfectly in his hands and carry one around with him when he is playing around the house. They also fit great between Baby A's leg and the stroller so he can snack while we're out and about!


When the Snack Happen's bags aren't being used by Baby A they also are the perfect size to bring with us for snacking on the go!


I absolutely love the products made by Itzy Ritzy and will continue to use and purchase their products! We have almost complete switched from plastic baggies to Itzy Ritzy Snack Happens bags for everyday use and the wet bags are a diaper bag must have! 


To Purchase: Visit Itzy Ritzy's Website and check out their awesome selection of wet bags, snack bags, and much more!
