I really wanted to get something new for our new arrival, but it was hard to justify, as I have saved all of my stuff (clothes, baby gear, everything) from my previous two kids. We have an infant carseat from when Emily was a baby, and it is just fine, although the headrest never stayed in place, and the sun shade never stayed up, even when we tried to rig it with Velcro. But still I couldn't bring myself to buy new one. So I started to look at alternatives. I discovered several websites where I could buy a carseat cover. However, most of those were for gender specific; Pink or Blue. I also found a couple of places that would make a custom order, you could even send fabric. So I picked out the fabric, in a gender neutral color, and my mom engineered the transaction (read: she paid) I even got a matching blanket, and "lovie". It is perfect. Just what I think the baby needs, so it feels special.
