The fabulous Metropolitan Mama recently blogged about baby niceties and necessities in one of her themed weekends and it really got me thinking. Much of my shopping is done online and I can’t tell you how many beautiful products I’ve seen for babies and toddlers. I also happen to live in Orange County and grew up in Los Angeles, home to more than a few chic baby boutiques. All this to say, I’ve seen my share of useful and useless products. And then there are those products that sort of sit in the middle and I think to myself, that would be really nice to have and I would use it…but do I really NEED it? And that is where the dilemma for me begins. I place these products in a separate category…”fabulous gift ideas.” These are the products I’d ask for but may or may not purchase them for myself.
I recently had an opportunity to review a Toddler Car Seat Cover by Baby Bella Maya. My first thought when I opened this was “It is gorgeous…stunning.” Many baby gear manufacturers attempt to design their high-ticket products to be gender neutral. I appreciate this because it means that I am able to use products like strollers and car seats for more than one child, regardless of the child’s gender. I own a Britax car seat and we chose a boring neutral design for this very reason. Awhile back I remember seeing a gorgeous infant car seat cover, and for a moment, I wondered if a company offered the same type of product for a toddler car seat. Here is a little more information about Baby Bella Maya from the site:
When it comes to posh designs for baby accessories, Baby Bella Maya was made with you in mind, from soft silky blankets and matching infant and toddler car seat covers to baby booties for boys and girls.
This is the first toddler car seat cover I’ve seen (or any car seat cover for that matter) and it’s very chic and trendy. My favorite part is the inside because it’s so silky and soft. I didn’t know that most car seat covers don’t have snaps, but this one does. The snaps allow easy strap access so you don’t have to remove the manufacturers’ straps (which I wouldn’t want to do!) The covers are available in a variety of designs including fun animal prints and luxurious woven damasks. They even come with matching seatbelt pads! The quality is impeccable and the designs are like those seen in a high-end, couture boutique. The seat covers fit MOST toddler car seats and retail for $70-$80 (depending on the design). The company also offers matching infant car seat covers, blankets, booties, slings, and more!

What a beautiful item… Such quality and stunning patterns and color.
I just purchased this Britax Marathon car seat for my 2 year old son last week. He is a big boy, and was outgrowing his old seat. This one looks like it will last him a couple more years. Thanks !!
Thanks for linking to me!
