Depending on the type of shower, a formal or business casual look is appropriate. A dress with high heels/wedges and accessories make a beautiful bridal shower outfit. You should look sophisticated and special while making a style statement of your own.

The last bridal shower attended was a little less formal. I wore a sundress and wedges. I already knew the color scheme for the wedding (because I was a bridesmaid) so I wore pink to fit in with the other bridesmaids and theme of the shower.

From my experience I know how nerve wracking it is to make sure you have on the correct outfit for a bridal shower. So I compiled a list of tips for finding the perfect bridal shower outfit.

For my bridal shower out fit, I wore a clutch that went well with my jewelry.
