Christenings, baptisms, or whatever you want to call them are a stressful time not only because you have to sit through (most likely) a bunch of babies being dunked in a bowl of water, prayers, etc. you might think that your outfit might be easy to pick out. Now this post is going to be in 2 parts: guests and godmothers! Now some of you may or may not know that my brother just had another baby and named me to be his godmother!! I am beyond stressed because I have NO idea what to wear! Luckily, I have done some research and have found some amazing dressed for both the godmother or the guests.
Now there are a few rules when attending a christening....
What not to wear....
No jeans
No flip flops
No uggs
No club wear
Try not to wear black, this isn't a funeral ;)

Pants suit
Dresses
Skirts
Heels
Ballet shoes
Sandals
Spring/summer colors....
Pastel
Bright
Neutral(try and stay away from dark colors during this season)
Fall/winter colors.....

Jewel tone
