What’s In Her Bag – Natalie Hanson
She’s got four amazing kids, a rock star husband and a smile that makes you smile back. This month’s “What’s in Her Bag” contributor is Natalie Hanson. The gorgeous mother of four, and wife of Hanson member Taylor Hanson, shows us what’s inside her busy rock-n-roll Mom bag. From the school run to a night out with friends Natalie takes us on a tour of the items she carries with her as she navigates her very lovely life.
I am always looking for something that can function as a “motherload” carryall, yet, is chic enough that when I am out without the children, is not a dead giveaway of my day job! This is the Mini Excursion bag by JW Hulme Co. I love its well-constructed, classic, made-for-using vibe.
I love tying scarfs on my bags! It’s an easy instant update. I inherited a beautiful scarf collection from my grandmother, so mine are also a sentimental touch. This one is a souvenir from Hot Springs National Park in Arkansas.
The wallet I’d been using since high school recently bit the dust! While I miss the memories, this one makes looking forward a little easier as I am a big time Kate Spade fan and just about everything of theirs makes me smile. My shades. The gold accents remind me of Elvis. TCB.
Snacks are a mommy must have for when we are out and about and in between meals.
My Pretty Little Things. Jo Malone perfume. They are so fun to mix and match and smell so fresh. The polish is Sparitual, Dreams Becoming Reality, my polish of the moment and, Thunder Road, my little girl’s current favorite. The lip gloss is Revlon Papaya. I tracked this color down after seeing Lucy Hale wearing it on the cover of Teen Vogue. It is my perfect summer shade!
I love my Kindle! My current reads are The Help and A Love that Multiplies. I always carry pen and paper for jotting down my lists, and it doubles as a tried and true child distraction technique.
My mom-of-four status means I’ve been carrying diapers in my bag for 8 years now! This also means I have burned out on carrying anything extra. This little pack is sturdy and carries several diapers and wipes, and it’s all I really need.

$400 for a purse? No big deal.
Well, I guess when you have the money, why not buy yourself a really awesome expensive purse? I definitely would.
Her husband Taylor doesn’t have a problem with her buying the bag, then why do fans have a problem with it? It’s really silly. She has a right to have nice things. Also Who’s to say she even spent 400 on the purse. She could have gotten as a gift.
Of course, if I had the money, I’d buy one too .. the comment was not meant to be a jealous jab or to be mean in anyway. I’m just saying I (along with another reader somewhere below) just assumed as most “what’s in her bag” posts/articles that are done allude to the idea that you can buy the same things celebs use. What a cute purse .. but alas, it’s $400. Interesting to see the contents but disappointed to learn I can’t afford what she has and there is no link to a knock off for a more affordable dupe!
I have this bag, and it was $265 from the store, actually.
I’m just going by what the JW Hulme Co website says: http://www.jwhulmeco.com/SearchResults.asp?Search=mini+excursion&Submit.x=0&Submit.y=0
It looks like it ranges from $370-$550, depending on what material you get.
Fabulous! Love the wallet…. and the keychain
I think Natalie deserves a medal for carrying so few items in her purse given the fact that she has four young kids! I have way more random crap in my (not-nearly-as-cute) purse, and the only person I am responsible for is myself. (Bonus points for the super cute Kindle case)
Natalie, make sure your wallet matches the purse
Oh, I love the scarf idea!
I’m so happy Natalie Hanson is on Stella! I’ve met her, she is totally gorgeous and I remember her smile being contagious. This is such a great blog. I especially love the scarf idea and her Kindle cover is crazy cute.
Love this girl. <3
Natalie sure knows how to carry everything she needs in this purse. It doesn’t look big enough to hold all of that but it is. Great choice!
Cool idea! The purse is really cool and I adore the sunglasses!
Great idea! I love the purse and those sunglasses are absolutely adorable!
This is presh! Lucky girl, Mrs. Taylor Hanson (as if you didn’t already know)!
My purse is a clustercuss and I don’t even have one kid! Kudos, dude!
I love Natalie, she is awesome! It is so great that she will share with us, I love to hear about the Hanson families. My daughter was born the day after her Viggo!
Yay! I LOVE Natalie. She’s got some really good ideas for mothers. Natalie is such a special person, Taylor is so lucky to have her. She’s a real natural beauty. I just love her eyes!
I think this is awesome. Loved this one. ALL the Hanson Clan Rocks!!
Oh the bag/scarf idea is genius! I’m definitely gonna try that. The wallet is so cute, I’m a big Kate Spade fan too. I know it’s been said in other comments but Natalie is amazing. I commend her for putting up with so much craziness from (some) of her husbands fans. She’s beautiful in every single way, like Taylor. *_*
i agree, she’s amazing! god bless nat and her beautiful family, btw, love the keychain and the color of her wallet!
That’s revlon papaya lipstick. Not l’oreal.
Thanks for the clarification Vicky! We’ve updated that in the post.
Hey! I have that Keychain! LOL That bag is very nice. Awesome Job! Thanks Natalie for letting us see in your bag. Your kids are adorable.
Thanks everyone for your comments! It was so nice of Natalie to take the time to write this post for us. So glad you’ve enjoyed it!
I loved the Kindle case, super cute!
Great blog Natalie! Taylor and Natalie are the cutest couple. •^_^•
Ok, I love the food pouches and the wallet! Great blog!
I love the diaper pouch and the food pouchs great idea. Wonder where I can get a daiper pouch?
We’re following up with Natalie to see who makes the diaper pouch and the food pouches. Thanks for your comment!
I’m a mom so I happened to know a couple of these things. I believe the snack pouches say munchkin on them. Looks like their tag. And the diaper pouch looks like a J.J Cole http://www.amazon.com/JJ-Cole-Diaper-Wipes-Pod/dp/B001Q3LB62/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1314164532&sr=8-6
Ju Ju Be also makes great pouches.
midwestern, wholesome, squeaky-clean style…weeeeee. and did anybody else notice that “a love that multiplies” is the book by the Duggars? yikes. also – i thought the whole point of this type of feature was to get some referrals for the products involved – I was genuinely interested in who made the snack bags and diaper bag…surprised to not find links here to that end.
We are currently following up with Natalie to find the manufacturers of the snack pouches and the diaper pouch. We will post that information here as soon as we have it.
http://www.diapers.com/p/Munchkin-Snack-Bags-3pk-95174 Here is the link to the snack bags. Thanks for commenting. I dont know about the diaper bag but I will ask Natalie and find out. I hope you found the other links helpful. Thanks for reading.
yes! thanks for the links – I appreciate it.
I loved this! Natalie is such a wonderful role model and I really admire her dedication to her family. She always looks so cool and stylish and put together. Thanks for this!
Stellashops–
I’m really loving Natalie’s bag and I’m actually in the market for a new fall purse with a similar style! Unfortunately, I’m back in school and working part time so money is tight and I can not do a bag that’s a few hundred dollars right now. Any suggestions on similar styles that are more affordable? I’ve been going crazy looking for a new bag like this for awhile (I had an idea in my head), saw this blog post, and thought “yes! Perfect!”. I’m going to cruise google since my malls and local Target stores have been no help thusfar. Any help would be wonderful (from anyone here). I’m looking for something this size and style that looks nice but may also double as a school bag. If I’m going to make my bag purchase, it needs to be the right one! I apologize for the lengthy entry and again, any help would be fantastic!!
that is an awesome article! too bad you didn’t show new pictures of her family… that’s an old one.
anyway, I’m glad she likes revlon papaya, it is a grea colour!
almonds yummy!!!!!
i like how colourful her stuffs are!
thanks for letting us know
Which Jo Malone scents does Natalie use? I’d love to try those out!
We’ll find out for you! Thanks for your comment.
