This weekend a friend and I are hosting a bridal shower for my good friend Erin back in San Francisco, and it got me thinking about what to wear to all the fabulous events that lead up to weddings. Since there are so many events (showers, engagement parties, bachelorettes, never mind the big day itself), a girl really has to check herself in the budget department. This is where you save on something versatile, that you can wear to many events throughout the summer. Here are my bridal shower picks, all under $50!
