accessories to organize your things and complete your outfit

yes! our small designer jetty and merchant wallets have a thin layer of hidden metal to block electromagnetic signals that rfid readers use to communicate with your cards. this reduces the risk of rfid skimming, which is when a thief steals your information without physical access. you want an rfid-blocking wallet when in crowded places like airports, tourist attractions (national and international), public transportation or concerts. just in case!

ooh, good question! let’s break it down… a wristlet clutch like our cleo is a true clutch with card slots on the inside to hold your ID and credit cards, so you don’t have to bring along a wallet. a clutch wallet like our jetty is sized and functions like a wallet but is designed with enough depth to hold some small essentials (similar to a small clutch) — your phone, lip balm, maybe even your glasses. we like to tuck the jetty into a larger bag with our credentials while traveling and carry it to, say, the coffee shop at our destination. if headed to brunch, we like to bring our cleo. when deciding which is right for you, consider size — the cleo holds more than the jetty. then consider how you want to carry — a wristlet strap keeps a clutch close, while no strap makes a wallet easier to set down and (potentially) forget if you’re not tucking it into a bag.

accessory or replacement straps are more than just functional — they allow you to get creative with your personal style! shortylove’s high-quality, well-designed crossbody bag straps add a ton of personality to an already great bag, changing its entire look. it’s like gaining a new bag! just imagine strapping a vibrant pewter/sage/magenta strap to a sage crossbody bag — a boardwalk strap transforms your everyday look into a real statement-maker. your choice of add-on crossbody strap adds punctuation to your personal aesthetic. it’s up to you whether that’s a period or an exclamation point. whether black and cream arrows, chocolate/peach/coral  stripes or navy/blue/pink stripes, boardwalk straps are the perfect finishing touch to your outfit while saying a lot about your unique style. and of course, we’d be remiss if we didn’t mention the functionality and other major benefits of well-constructed bag straps. adjustability allows you to change the fit of the straps to your ideal length, making it more comfortable. luxe hardware takes the design up a notch. and with their silky soft comfort, our accessory crossbody straps provide all-day wearability.

sign one: quality materials. if you prefer a vegan-friendly option for your crossbody bag straps, look for a better, woven nylon with the width to properly distribute the weight, strength to stand up to daily use and softness for wearability — chafing is such a drag. . sign two:  quality construction. if you see uneven stitching or loose threads — run! it helps if the edges of the strap aren’t left unfinished, because this invites fraying and inevitable destruction (plus it looks bad). this is why shortylove finishes the edges, doubles over the end of the strap and then double-stitches the loop for a rock-solid design. sign three: the right comfort and fit. good straps are adjustable to your ideal fit, laying comfortably on your shoulder and across your torso while resisting digging and sliding off. sign four: sturdy, high-quality metal hardware. shortylove nylon crossbody bag straps feature statement-making hardware that’s about more than just good looks. durable, uber-functional swivel dog clips that ensure your bag falls just right as you move.

it does not! we made the biz using durable, water-resistant nylon. designed for real life, it stands up to everyday use while being extremely easy to care for, just like the bags in our wave quilt collection. the biz’s chic, quilted exterior spot-cleans with a little soap and water. simple enough. the interior is coated so you can wipe it down after a diaper change using a sanitizing wipe or spray. when home, clean with a cloth using soap and water if your mat needs more attention. be sure to air dry completely before you fold up your mat.

the word to remember here is ‘portable.’ that means pack light and organize your diaper changing mat storage with the absolute essentials. the biz makes it easy with two fold-out wings on either side of the changing area. on the left: a mesh pocket that expands to hold your wipes dispenser, with an opening for easy access. on the right: a zip pocket to hold diaper balm, hand sanitizer or sanitizing spray, and a pacifier or teether, plus two slide pockets for diapers and disposable bags. your baby bag — like our boxer backpack or ranger crossbody tote — will hold other necessities like a change of clothes and baby bottles, so keeping your mat storage down to a science doesn’t mean you’re not prepared!
