Nena and Co + 15% discount code

When I first discovered Nena and Co through Instagram, I was drawn to the bright colors and uniqueness of her bags. After meeting the owner, Ali and being able to feel and see Nena in person, I was blown away at the quality and care put into each and every bag!

All Nena bags are made in Guatemala by Maya women using RECYCLED Guatemalan shirts and dresses. Each of these bags take days to make, creating jobs for local families that live in poverty. I love that many of the bags have a pocket on the front which is actually the neckline from the shirt/dress used to create each handbag. 

  • These bags are durable! I’ve taken mine to Utah and Arizona in the past month filling them as full as I could. 
  • The leather is soft and looks even better as it ages.
  • MOST favorite: one of a kind. They are not mass produced so you can be sure your bag won’t be the same as 10 other people. 
  • Two sizes: day bag and weekender. The day bag is big, perfect for a diaper or gym bag as well as can be used for an overnight travel bag. The weekender is huge making it the best choice for traveling. 
  • Be prepared to be stopped carrying your Nena and Co bag. While in the Salt Lake airport, Summer and I were stopped at least 7 times asking where are bags were from. 
  • Most importantly, these bags not only provide jobs but proceeds from every bag sold go towards building a water filtration system for the local Guatemalan town in which they are crafted, providing safe drinking water.

  1. HMM! I love the bags and I am going to order one but I can’t decide which one! I have a newborn and a 2 year old. I would like it as a diaper bag. Which one would you guys recommend? The weekender or day bag? Thanks so much!
    Just a little thank you for all the work you guys do on this blog! I love it – BUT I’ve been buying more things since finding your blog! I can’t help it! Smiles!

    • The day bag will be perfect for your needs! It’s plenty big. You will seriously love these bags as much as we do! xxo
