If lots of little kids are going to be there, I don't think it would be super duper dressy since it's annoying to wear a dress and wrangle a baby! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-wear-to-a-baby-shower#post-2647536 Thu, 03 Nov 2016 15:30:54 +0000 PawPrints 2647536@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Casual dress, or nice jeans with nice sweater. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-wear-to-a-baby-shower#post-2647398 Thu, 03 Nov 2016 13:09:58 +0000 raspberries 2647398@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ShootingStar: The Common Market? I've actually been to a retirement party there! If I recall correctly, it was a white tablecloth with crystal glasses and cloth napkins kind of party, although I'm not sure what all is included in room rental. Maybe you could get by just buying a skirt instead of trying to find a nursing friendly dress? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-wear-to-a-baby-shower#post-2647388 Thu, 03 Nov 2016 13:02:35 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2647388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>dark jeans + nursing tank + cardigan </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-wear-to-a-baby-shower#post-2647386 Thu, 03 Nov 2016 13:00:11 +0000 psw27 2647386@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Every time I go to a baby shower lately, I am overdressed in a dress! I would say nice jeans and a cute blouse are appropriate! (I'm in Boston too, I've never heard of that place either, but it doesn't look too fancy!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-wear-to-a-baby-shower#post-2647383 Thu, 03 Nov 2016 12:57:31 +0000 erinbaderin 2647383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dark jeans, dressier top, heels if you're comfortable or cute flats if you're not. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-wear-to-a-baby-shower#post-2647381 Thu, 03 Nov 2016 12:56:24 +0000 ShootingStar 2647381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@raspberries: It's a place I never heard of, called the Common Marketplace in Quincy. Looks like they have a restaurant and a few function rooms. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-wear-to-a-baby-shower#post-2647374 Thu, 03 Nov 2016 12:50:52 +0000 raspberries 2647374@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What's the venue? I'd probably base it on that.</p> <p>That being said, you could probably get by with nice dark jeans and a nursing friendly top with some jewelry to dress it up, as long as it's not at a super fancy restaurant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-wear-to-a-baby-shower#post-2647371 Thu, 03 Nov 2016 12:48:41 +0000 ShootingStar 2647371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm going to a baby shower for my friend's wife in a couple weeks. She and I are friends but I feel kind of weird reaching out to ask how dressy it is. </p> <p>I tend to dress really casually, jeans pretty much every day. I have one casual fall type of dress, but it's not nursing friendly. I'd really like to not have to buy an outfit for this occasion, especially a dress that won't get a lot of use. </p>
