A Perfect Pair Shower For Twins!

Lisa Horten — Thu, 10 May 2012 13:27:51 PDT

Is there a sweeter theme for a shower feting tiny twins than a "perfect pair?" Pears set the tone for both the menu and the decor, which had a vibe that more closely resembled a chic wedding than a baby shower. "They are keeping the gender of the babies a secret, so a sage green was a perfect neutral color choice," said hostess Jordan of Polkadot Prints, who threw the party for her expectant sister.

The Bright and Cheerful Baby Girl Shower That Almost Didn't Happen

LilSugar — Mon, 30 Apr 2012 12:52:54 PDT

Nothing could stand in the way of the Richmond, Va, hostesses of this fabulous fete for baby Connally - not even a natural disaster (or two)! As East Coasters will recall, Hurricane Irene swept through and did a fair amount of damage back in September. Add to that the unusual occurrence of an earthquake, and it seemed as if Mother Nature was doing everything she could to prevent this shower from happening. But the party prevailed and the lucky mom-to-be, Courtney of Merriment Events, was honored with a bright, beautiful affair in shades of pink, yellow, and orange.

A Classic High Tea Shower

LilSugar — Fri, 27 Apr 2012 14:42:49 PDT

"During college, I spent a rainy month in London. Without a real purpose for being there, I aimlessly strolled through museums, read The Bell Jar in Hyde Park, saw American Psycho in a fancy movie theater, and as many West End shows as I could. But despite the great surroundings, I was lonely, lost. I found great comfort in the ritual of the afternoon tea," says Annie Campbell of Après Fête.

This British tradition was the inspiration for the classic high tea shower that Annie hosted for her friend, Frannie, prior to the birth of her baby girl. Click through to see how Annie pulled together this very proper tea-time affair.

See Inside Jessica Simpson's Charlotte's Web-Themed Baby Shower

Rebecca M Gruber — Thu, 26 Apr 2012 15:31:06 PDT

She might not have had her baby girl yet, but Jessica Simpson clearly has baby on her mind these days. The expectant mama - who is likely due any day now - just released a sweet video showing all of the details from her Charlotte's Web-themed baby shower. The rustic pink party included everything from white picket fences and cutout farm animals to diaper-pin necklaces and a knitting station (such a cute idea!). Guests - including Jessica Alba and lil Haven Warren, Ashlee Simpson, and CaCee Cobb - appear drinking down pink lemonade out of mason jars (with old-fashioned striped straws) and eating gourmet ice cream.

We predicted several of Jessica's baby-shower gifts based on her Bel Bambini registry, but in the video we see Jessica and fiancé Eric Johnson unwrapping a pair of pink baby cowboy boots, a precious lil bathing suit, their own copy of Go the @#!* to Sleep, and a bedazzled pacifier. Check out the video and tell us what you think of Jessica's shower!
