What to wear to a baby shower?
Permalink Closed

One of my friends is having a baby in May.  Her shower is going to be 2 weeks.  I haven't been to a baby shower since I was a teenager, and all the showers I went to back then were somewhat "formal" and for family members (no friends attended).  I wore dresses/suits.


What's appropriate to wear for a friend's shower?  I know a lot of their family will be there in addition to their friends.  It's during the day, so I was thinking of a beige cordouroy skirt and the berry Anthro curly tneck that everyone has with some wedge pumps.   Do you think that's too casual?  I don't want to show up and be the only person in a dress or suit.

I think the skirt and wedges will be fine.


I have NEVER been to a shower where a suit would be appropriate though. That seems foreign to me.

Your outfit sounds perfect!  Like joceybaby, I have never been to a shower where anyone was wearing a suit other than maybe the bride's mother.  Is the shower at someone's home or restaurant?

It's at the mom-to-be's house.  I think I'll stick w/ the outfit I planned.  My family tends to be a bit conservative and wears suits to just about everything,  so I can see why I'd be seriously overdressed if I wore one to my friend's shower.

I think what you have planned is perfect - it's a spring baby shower already! The suit people need to lighten up!

Bastet-


Your post made me laugh- I too am all very familiar w/the dresses/suits only showers and to this day I always second guess my outfits when I go to any kind of shower...like my mom's going to magically appear and berate me for not being dressed up enough or something!


Anyway, your outfit sounds very cute and appropriate!
