How to Dress for a Children's Party

How to Dress for a Children's Party



If you are hosting or attending a children's party, you want to pick an attractive and comfortable outfit to wear for this special event. Functionality and modesty are key in picking an outfit that won't draw unnecessary attention to or conflict with the activities at hand.







Things You'll Need:





Pants



Blouse



Sweater



Wrap dress



Blazer



Lipstick



Eyeshadow



Blush



Ballet flats



Wedge shoes









Step
1



Dress according to the formality of the occasion. For a rollerblading party or miniature golf outing, plan to wear nice pants or jeans with a neat top and flat shoes that will be easy to run around in.




Step
2



For a spa or tea party, or a luncheon in a nice setting, consider classy but also easy-to-wear pieces, such as dress pants with a blouse or a casual wrap dress. Go for embellished ballet flats or low-wedge shoes.




Step
3



When you are socializing with a group of
toddlers
, be sure you to select washable items that you can wear to sit on the floor. Wear a cotton dress with leggings or corduroys and a sweater. Make sure the items won't wrinkle and will allow you to stretch and move around well.




Step
4



Bring a smock or apron if you are helping at a crafts party when things might get messy. Or, wear a nice t-shirt in a modern shape with jeans with a casual hooded cardigan that can stand up to heavy wear.




Step
5



Select a jean skirt or velvet pants with a belted tunic or fitted sweater and finish off the look with platform pumps or boots if you want to look more polished or pulled together.




Step
6



Look for pieces that can make a statement without too much fuss. Some beading on a t-shirt or sweater, or embroidery on a skirt or pair of jeans can make a casual outfit look a little more special.




Step
7



Remember that by adding a casual blazer, you can take an ordinary outfit and make it look more polished.




Step
8



Take a few extra minutes to put on lipstick, blush and eye shadow to finish your look.







Tips & Warnings









Keep in mind that casual doesn't mean wrinkled, ripped or oversized. You should put on things that fit your figure and look nice.








Avoid wearing dry cleanable clothing or things that will be easily ruined by spills if there will be young
children
at the party.








Steer clear of jogging suits and sneakers unless the party is a sporting event. You want to look like you cared enough to take the time to dress for the occasion.
