What to Wear: Bridal and Baby Showers

May 27, 2018 By Katie Rushton Leave a Comment

It’s the season of celebration, and dressing the part is half the fun. For the next several weekends, many of our calendars are peppered with bridal and baby showers for which we’ll all need the right outfit. Every bride and soon-to-be mom is different, so the style of her shower will be uniquely suited to her, meaning the attire could be a trendy Saturday morning brunch out, a casual afternoon hang at home, or a swanky Sunday fête. No matter the vibe, a shower is always the right time to exude an extra dash of feminine elegance while surrounded by all your favorite women.

Especially if you’re a shower host, you’ll want to keep it cool and comfy (because we all know how hot a southern spring can be), easy to move around in, but also flattering and fashionable. We’ve curated a selection of shower-appropriate pieces that is heavy on sleeveless options, feminine flair, and casual-to-dressy basics.
