It's the most wonderful time of the year. No we're not talking about the holidays, we're talking about the season of summer celebrations: Bridal showers, and the cutest event of them all, baby showers. Dressing for such a cheery celebration is fun with endless color combinations and outfit possibilities. Maybe you're headed to celebrate a co-worker or acquaintance and want to dress in something simple and unassuming. Or maybe your sister or best friend is expecting and you really want to dive into the theme of the occasion.
For an outdoor shower something light like a maxi or mini dress is a comfortable and safe option. If a dress isn't your forte, a lightweight linen suit is a chic look. For something indoors you can always wear layers and experiment more with heavier materials like a knit or a leather jacket. You never know how strong the air conditioning will be for an indoor event so a third piece is a necessity.
Whether you're headed to a backyard BBQ or attending a high tea celebration, keep scrolling for seven baby shower looks for every kind of baby shower.
