Headed to a Baby Shower? Here's What to Wear
Among the milestones you and your friends will experience, the arrival of a new baby is one of them. With the announcement of a bundle of joy on the way comes the invitation to the shower. However, creating the perfect baby shower outfit can be a little daunting, especially if you've never attended one.
Right up there with attending a wedding, a baby shower is an exciting and joyous occasion, and there's no reason you should be stressed out about what to wear. To help you focus your energy on celebrating the expecting parents and the baby, we've rounded up our favorite outfits that are appropriate for any shower you might be attending this spring.
From vibrant colors and romantic prints to pencil skirts and accessories, these ensembles will give you the right balance between festive and appropriate for the occasion while also keeping your look light and fun. You'll have a great time welcoming the new baby, and these looks will help you do it in style.
A pencil skirt is always a polished and flattering option for a baby shower. Wear yours with a ruffled top for a romantic twist.
Vibrant hues will put anyone in a good mood for the occasion, and who wouldn't be already? If you're wearing a bright dress, offset it with a pair of patterned shoes to give your ensemble more texture.
If you're wearing a dress with floral details, play into the accent colors by wearing a pair of boots in coordinating tones.
Embrace the fresh beginning of a new baby with a green floral dress. Let your dress be the hero of your look and pair it with neutral sandals.
If you'd prefer not to wear florals for the occasion, gingham is a great print for spring too. For a more casual event, layer on a denim jacket to dress the look down.
For some creative dressing, wear a button-down dress as an open tunic over a pair of skinny jeans to get the most out of your clothes. You'll be the coolest one in the room.
You can wear these black skinnies with anything. They're also available in sizes 14 to 26.
An off-the-shoulder dress is a fun and flirty option for the occasion. Take your boho-inspired outfit even further and accessorize with a wooden handbag.
A modern take on the shirtdress will guarantee you'll have all eyes on you. Style it with a pair of boots in a similar hue to give your outfit depth.
Could there be anything better for a baby shower than a floral wrap dress? To keep your look on the unexpected side and perhaps give it an edge, style it with tall black boots.
Whether you have one shower to attend or many more, these looks will have you ready for all of your festivities.
