Parents aren’t as locked into the pink-or-blue debate anymore—today’s palettes lean soft, elevated, and totally gender-neutral. Think pale blues, mauvy pinks, oatmeal, and creamy tones that work beautifully for any baby (unless there’s a specific color request, of course). And that makes gift shopping easier if parents are keeping the gender a surprise. You can focus on pieces that feel thoughtful, stylish, and actually useful—no guessing required!
Scroll for 12 chic gender-neutral baby gifts!
