August 2012 Weddings

what did you/are you wearing to your shower?

Im not sure what to wear to my shower. I want to look nice, but we comfortable too... I am really a jeans and t-shirt kind of girl, and with dresses i dont really feel to comfortable unless they are long. 
Eversince iv had our son, i have really been wearing heels, so I dont think I want to wear heels either.
What are you ladies wearing? Any suggestions for me??
Thanks ladies!

Re: what did you/are you wearing to your shower?

  • Mine was a surprise, so I was wearing white/khaki shorts, cotton tank top, and Old Navy flip-flops.  MIne was outside and casual.  Some guests were dressed like me and others were in dresses/skirts.  Wear what makes YOU feel good!

    Mine was a surprise so that didnt really matter tho i wished i knew so i can get dressed up.  i would say dress up as much as you're comfortable with.  it's your time so dont worry too much about what "should" be but do what you're comfortable with that's you.

  • I rarely wear dresses either, but for my shower, I wore a sundress on sale at TJ Maxx for 25 and flip flops.
  • I had the same question.  I had no idea and didn't feel comfortable in a dress.   I wore white dress capris and a pink, orange (wedding colors) and white top that was a chiffon material with a a white tank under it.  Then found a nice pair of white wedge slides to go with it.  But in the end... it's your shower wear what you are comfortable in.  If its a dress then wear the dress, if not then wear something else.

  • I wore a white sun dress, but my mom had provided a pink "Bride to be" tank top because it was a suprise so I sported that over the dress
  • I wore jeans and a white tshirt that my sister had the word "BRIDE" put on in purple rhinestones (my fave color).  She also got me a Bride to Be sash :)

    For my other shower I wore black dress pants and a cute shirt :)

    Wear whatever is comfortable for you!!  I'm a jeans and tshirt girl too!!

  • I wore black denim bermuda shorts with a casual dressy white top. Glammed it up a bit with jewelry and sandal heels. I was comfortable but still dressy.

  • i wore a cream lace dress that i splurged on, you can see it a couple posts back...
    But if you like long dresses and flats.
    Why not wear a cute maxi dress and sandals?!
    That seems like the perfect outfit!

  • White dress from Macy's for the shower this past weekend. For my other 2 showers I'll probably do a sundress, and jeans to the other.

  • I too don't really wear heels and am a jeans & tshirt kinda girl. I wore a casual sundress, and then to make me stand out a little more than guests I wore some fancy(ish) jewlery and wore my hair much nicer than I normally do. I wore a cute pair of sandals with it. I was very comfortable and got lots of compliments

  • I haven't had mine yet, but was planning on wearing a sundress. Until FMIL sort of rolled her eyes at me and told me I should wear something dressier. :( I really don't want to spend any more money and I don't feel like shopping for a slightly "dressier" sundress, especially if it's dressier, then I probably wouldn't wear it again. Argh!
