What to wear to a baby shower in the summer

If you are attending a baby shower in the spring then I highly recommend that you stick to a sundress with flowers or a spring vibe. 

If you are attending a baby shower in the summer expect it to be warm outside, I’d highly recommend a light colored sundress

If you are attending a baby shower in the fall the temperature is changing and it’s starting to get cool outside, I’d recommend a pair of jean and a nice top. 

If you are attending a baby shower in the winter, expect it to be cold outside, and jeans and a sweater is the perfect option for a winter baby shower.

No there isn't typically not dress codes for attending a baby shower. The unofficial dress code for a baby shower, is a casual outfit, that you would wear to a nice restaurant. I recommend sticking to neutral colors unless you want to incorporate the baby’s gender into your outfit.

No you don’t have to incorporate the baby’s gender into your outfit. I always tell people it’s a fun way to subtly incorporate the baby’s gender into the party. If you don’t have a pink or blue outfit, consider wearing a pink hair ribbon, or blue socks something to make it more fun! If you can't incorporate the baby's gender don't sweat it, there will be tons of decorations to incorporate the gender.
