Hi fashion girlies <3 Winter baptism season is upon us, and I’m here to save you from the fashion panic I experienced last year! 🥶💕
After attending multiple christenings this season, I am finally confident enough to say that Ive mastered the art of looking appropriate, staying warm, AND serving style for those post-ceremony photos.
In this article, I’m gonna share all those specific tips nobody tells you about (church heating is so unpredictable!).
Let’s make sure you’re turning heads at the font for all the right reasons! 💒👶✨
Ready to discover my top 10 winter baptism outfit ideas? Check out down below and save some of these fashion inspo for later reference <3
1. Casual outfit for christening
If you’re unsure of what to wear as a guest or a relative of a guest, well, keep it casual.
Of course, as I’ve already mentioned, you should never wear anything too revealing, so let’s go with a simple winter outfit!
Wearing a warm sweater, some loose-fitting jeans, and tall boots is a great look.
One way to look more put-together is to wear a collared shirt under a sweater! (Works everytime)
2. Silk tops for Baptism in winter
Another great fabric to wear to a winter christening, whether you’re the mother of the child or just a guest, is silk.
Due to the fabric’s breathability and ability to regulate heat, you won’t need to wear a coat even in the coldest weather.
Simply pair this satin top (cheaper alternative of a silk top) with jeans or pants if you’re a guest, or a maxi pleated skirt if you’re a mother, and you’ll have a perfectly appropriate outfit in no time.
This will also make you look chic!
3. Keep it classy for Winter baptism
Let’s discuss appropriate attire for a winter baptism!
We wouldn’t want to overdo it and look more festive than mom for the big day. We might as well dress the part!
You can’t go wrong with a bow tie blouse, a white midi skirt, and a belt for a sophisticated look. You could, of course, pair this with a long coat when venturing outdoors.
Put the finishing touch on this sophisticated look with a pair of nude platform high sandals.
PRO TIP:
Use gentle colors like pastels or brights to create a gentle impression when donning this ensemble.
4. Comfy look for Mom
The perfect look as a mom? Loose, comfy clothes with a dash of elegance! 👗✨
After all, you’ll be carrying your little one during the baptism the whole time, so comfort is key! 💖👶
An asymmetrical pleated skirt paired with a soft sweater is not only cozy but also a stylish, sophisticated way to embrace your mom status. 💯
If you’re thinking heels, go for sandals with a modest heel (under 4 inches) like the Lacey Pump Shoe.
They’re practical enough to prevent any wobbles while carrying your precious bundle, but still add that touch of grace! 👠🥰
5. Elegant look for parents
Baptism is an event that centers around the baby and their parents. So it’s tough to find the right clothes to wear.
The best way to look your best as a family is to dress formally and in comfort.
The best outfit for moms is a long sleeved midi or maxi dress with 4-inch heels. Either wear your hair down or tie it up in a bun! How elegant!
If you’re going for a calm, gentle look, white or a nude color is what you want to wear.
The father could dress to impress in his finest suit, tie, and oxford shoes. His necktie can be any color to match your winter baptism’s motif or to complement your baby’s gender.
It would be more refined if he wore a gray or beige suit.
6. Sophisticated look for the Godmother
If you are the mother’s closest friend, you will almost certainly be asked to be the God Mother at the child’s baptism.
This is so exciting! Envision yourself holding the baby you’ll love forever.
So, remember to not overdo it with your attire. I’ll be happy to assist you with that.
You could dress down in something as sophisticated as a sweater tucked into a maxi silk skirt.
In the same way, the heeled pump shoes you’re wearing with that should be both cozy and adorable.
7. Trousers for christening
I know the perfect trouser-wearing outfit for a christening if you’re looking for one.
A chic outfit for a winter baptism is a chunky sweater tucked into high-waisted wide-leg pants. This is a great outfit for any mother, guest, or godmother because of how loose and breathable it is.
High-heeled shoes of any style would complement this style.
8. Coats as Dress for Baptism in winter
Wear your coat as a dress to the winter baptism if you are a friend from a tropical country or just don’t like the cold weather.
In fact, this is probably the simplest solution! The undergarments are not going to be a source of worry either.
Dressing in a long leather coat or leather trench coat can be very practical. Don’t forget to tie the belt around your waist!
Wear a turtleneck sweater, some denim, leggings, or tights, and a pair of high-heeled boots to create a fashionable and cozy look.
9. Chic look for Plus size Queens
Don’t ignore the needs of curvy women! Your baptism in the winter is a special event in its own right.
Get ready to impress everyone with your refined style!
I have the ideal ways to wear for either the mother or the godmother.
Just throw on a white button-down shirt with long sleeves and a pair of high-waisted pants, and you’ll be effortlessly fashionable. If you threw on a trench coat, you’d instantly look chic.
Simple heeled sandals with a 3-inch heel would be the most comfortable choice to complete the look.
PRO TIP:
Pants and coat of the same color, but not the same as the color of your inner shirt, will give you a more refined appearance.
10. What shoes to wear on a Baptism in winter
Choosing appropriate footwear is, of course, crucial.
It’s important to keep in mind that the venue for the baptism will be a church; as such, you shouldn’t wear anything too casual or sloppy on your feet.
Don’t forget that we don’t really want to look like a bunch of dorks by wearing snow boots to this event either, right?
Don’t worry about it! Ladies, I have the ideal footwear for you!
A pair of jeans, pants, skirts, or dresses would look great with these crystal-embellished faux-leather shoes.
If you’re going for a classy, polished look, these closed-toe shoes are a great choice.
FINAL THOUGHTS:
That’s it! The 10 winter baptism or christening outfits! Do you want to chime in with your thoughts on this?
Everyone attending the baptism should be aware of the dress requirements and should wear something suitable and in keeping with the theme of the ceremony.
And as the baby’s godmother, you have been entrusted with the responsibility of helping to shape the youngster’s character.
Make sure the clothes you choose to wear today are ones that you can relax in.
