Little kids and cars don't always mix, and for parents of those with a particularly sensitive gag reflex or explosive south-of-the-border reaction every time they turn the key in the ignition, the never-ending pile of laundry and buckets of upholstery shampoo just keeps growing and growing.
At least that's what happened to moms Jen and Rebecca every time they tried to run an errand with their daughters.
Without an available solution in sight, the mess combating duo turned into designers and came up with Emmalu Designs - an online shop that offers brick and mortar retailers, and e-tailers, too, waterproof, removable car seat covers in super trendy patterns and colors to make everyone's life a little easier and time spent together a little more enjoyable. 
The concept is simple.
Each patent pending slipcover - in infant (Blue River Flowers shown at top left, $69.99+) or toddler (Groovy Guitars shown at bottom right, $69.99+) seat sizes - has a waterproof lining to protect the original car seat cover underneath, is fully machine washable, dryer-friendly, and best of all, fashionably durable for a not so extreme makeover that won't break the bankroll.
In fact, maybe you'll even save a little green on cleaning supplies each time the kiddies turn a similar shade.
