Every mom puts her children's needs first: carting around that giant tote of extra outfits and stuffies, neglecting her own chapped lips to tend to chapped little cheeks, forgetting to hydrate en route to and from endless appointments. As a result, her own style preferences and needs fall way down on the priority list—often to the point of dropping off entirely. But it doesn't have to be that way—with the right preparation and equipment, she can always take a moment to ask, while packing up for the daily agenda, "What's in here for me?"

Sonny Georgevich, an art director for a leading fashion brand and mom to 2-year-old Ryder and 2-month-old Georgie, solves this dilemma with items that are both functional and fashionable. That starts with the Nuna DEMI™ next + rider board: "Having a very accessible and smooth but still elegant stroller is such a helpful part of my life," she says. "It's a comfortable ride for the kids, and easy to maneuver. I can hit the city streets while getting on calls."

Ingeniously designed to adapt as little ones and families grow, the Demi next has 25+ possible configurations—easily converting from a travel system with a Nuna infant car seat to a single, and even double stroller. Big brothers like Ryder can stand on the rider board, which quickly flips up and away when not in use, or sit in the sibling seat that's available for additional purchase.

In terms of storage, the Nuna DEMI™ next has room for all the extras in the roomy basket without the slightest effect on steering and handling. The stroller also folds quickly and effortlessly in tight spots or for city-living apartment parking. In brisk winter weather, Georgevich loves the ultra-plush footmuff for the baby, and the Merino-lined puffer mittens for herself—which, when not in use, stay in place on the stroller thanks to built-in magnets. "I'm sleep-deprived and prone to lose everything," she says. "But the magnets make these impossible to misplace."

Nuna Diaper bag

Then there's the Nuna Diaper bag, which, thanks to its five elastic mesh pockets and zippered side pouch, is also superb at keeping necessities in their place. "The multiple hidden pockets are perfect," Georgevich says, adding that what she loves most is the bag's sleek, modern design. "It doesn't look like a conventional diaper bag, with one of those loud geometric patterns that catch one's eyes and cause them to frown," she says, laughing. And along with handy features like its hidden changing pad with a wipeable surface and its bottle holder, the tote/backpack is sleek enough to use for her own needs, too—for example, it fits laptops and tablets up to 14 inches.

That allows Georgevich to maintain her sense of style in the face of sleep deprivation and French baths by keeping a few other key items on hand, detailed below.

Prada Women's Metal Hair Clip

"This is essential when I want to go from exhausted mom to put-together professional. One of the pros of being a new mom is that my hair is much healthier—because I never have time to style it with hot tools. I just put it up in the clip."

COS Leather Swing Crossbody

"It keeps all my essentials within easy reach at all times. It's where my keys and phone live."

Madewell The Vernon Bit Hardware Loafer in Leather

Now 15% Off

"If I'm wearing a classic outfit like jeans and a T-shirt, loafers elevate the look. Plus, they can be slipped on or off while I'm holding the sleeping baby."

Dior Addict Lip Glow

"I need a hydrating lip gloss and then a swipe of mascara. It's the only makeup I ever wear."

Kinto Travel Tumbler

"When I'm nursing, I have to drink water all the time. And I like a chic bottle that won't break if I drop it."
