What’s the Difference Between Luxe Poppy Bag and Original Poppy Bag?

If you’re anything like me, you want the purchase you make to really count. That’s why I’m here to break down the difference between The Luxe Poppy Bag and The Original Poppy Bag, so you can find the one that fits your lifestyle perfectly.

Let me just say upfront: Both bags share the same thoughtful design, size, and features that make The Poppy Bag so unique. I'm talking the two-compartment system (one side for you, one for your kiddo), the easy-access wipes design, and all the built-in organization that keeps your life running smoothly. But the key difference lies in the exterior material and the vibe each bag brings.

The Luxe Poppy Bag: Classic Cow Leather

The Luxe Poppy Bag is crafted from ethically-sourced, top-grain cow leather from the USA. It has that gorgeous, buttery feel and timeless appeal that only real leather can bring. 

If you love quiet luxury and want a bag that made of real cow leather, Luxe is your girl. It’s perfect if you want a bag that fits your style in this season of motherhood and long after.

The Original Poppy Bag: A Sustainable Beauty 

The Original Poppy Bag is made of bio-based vegan leather, comprised primarily of tree roots (yes, really!). This material is eco-conscious, vegan, and not just a plastic-leather bag like most other 'vegan leathers' out there. It’s perfect for the mama who loves a sustainable vegan vibe, but it is a little less durable than the Luxe cow leather option.

I created this bag for mamas who want to be mindful of their impact on the environment without sacrificing style or function. It’s just as practical as the Luxe, with that same magic two-compartment design.

Which One Is Right for You? 

When it comes down to choosing between Luxe and Original, think about your lifestyle and what kind of vibe you want your bag to bring. If you’re craving that timeless leather feel and a bag that will be your go-to for as long as possible (even when you’re not in diaper bag mode), Luxe is where it’s at.

If sustainability and a vegan option are more your jam, the Original might just steal your heart. The Original is also a lower price point, making the same great design more accessible. 

And the best part? No matter which one you choose, you’re getting the same intentional design that keeps your essentials organized and your style on point. Both bags make it easier to carry what you need without feeling like you’re losing a bit of yourself in the “mom bag” territory, and help you to lighten the load of motherhood (literally and figuratively).

I hope this helps you find the Poppy that fits your vibe.
