Preppy Baby Shower Gifts

Hey y'all - I am about to hop on a plane to NYC, but I wanted to answer a question I get a lot via e-mail, so here goes. So first comes marriage and then comes baby, right? A lot of newly married gals need some help venturing into the uncharted territory that is a newborn. When we get that baby shower invite, we're sort of unsure what to do. China, we got that. But, car seats, not so much.

Here are some suggestions of things I have done in the past. All you mommies out there, feel free to leave your favorite ideas in the comments section, pretty please.

High End

• Kate Spade Baby Bag (Love, Love, Love this one and it's on sale)



• Kennedy Cradle from Dimples & Dandelions (It's such a keepsake)


• A session with a local photographer who specializes in baby/family portraits


• A Pack & Play for when baby and mom come for a visit

Low End

• Your favorite children's book growing up with these super cute book labels from Tiny Prints (see blog sponsors for 5% off)



• Fun Pacifier Clips or monogrammed bloomies (for a girl)


• Trumpette socks



• Mustella New Born Gift Set

Hope this helps, see y'all tomorrow!
