Time to talk fashion....Marathon fasion

Okay, after several posts, lots of back and forth, I've finally decided on which carseats I'm buying DDs. I'm getting DD#1 a Marathon and a Graco Nautilus (to replace her EFT (not advance) and Comfortsport) and DD#2 is getting 2 Marathons.

So, now the next big question is....what covers???

DD#1 wants pink - the only overtly pink one is the Olivia, which I believe from reading here is a discontinued pattern, so likely an older DOM. But, she's already almost 3, so that might be okay.

DD#2 is currently too young to care...but eventually she will. Those of you with 2 girls - do they have matching or similar covers? Should I just buy at least 2 of the same cover now to prevent fights later? Do the Mariposa and Ashley Floral get really dirty easily? I can get pretty anal at times...it's taken a leap of comfort to not just get grey covers that would match my car's interior. What am I thinking...my car's interior might as well be called "Cheerio delight".

I don't know, I like my seats to cordinate.

I would get one grey/black to match the nautilus

Then the other two, get girly seats: Brooke or Olivia or Ashly Floral or Mariposa. Any two of those would cordinate with each other well.

I have the Ashley Floral and it's stayed suprising clean. I :love: it. I'd either get that or the Mariposa. I think they'd go well together.

i have 2 girls. thier seats do not "match" they co-ordinate... but dd2 is to little to care... lol. and i dont care if she cares, she will ride in what i buy.... lol. i'm a mean mean mommy, just ask dd1. shes mad at me cause i wont loosen her straps. oh well. i told her a full body cast would be worse, and considering she is wearing a cast on her arm as it is i thought that would make an impression... i didnt. durn kids.... lol

Brooke is pink and is current. It is only sold at Target though. That is what my girls are getting:love:
Or you could get her a madison regent.

I would get two Ashley Florals, two Mariposas, or one of each.

Personally, I would avoid the Brooke and Olivia patterns like the plague because I think they are hideously ugly. But you may like them! :) We all have different taste! :)

I am trying to figure out the same thing here. I think that you can do pretty much anything. For my car I want girlie girl covers. But, my DH does not want pink car seats in his car. So, he gets covers that match his interior. In one car he has a Graco Nautilus, and the other he will have two MA Microdot Tan. For mine, I am trying to get covers that I like. My oldest is in a Shannon Boulevard, and my youngest will be in a Jessica Roundabout. We'll see how well they go together.
