Aprons

One of my favorite day to day items, that I love and wear the most, are my aprons. I wear an apron, pretty much everyday. Cooking, cleaning, living-everything needs an apron. And since they are a fundamental part of my "outfits" so to speak, I thought I'd share the pictures of my favorite ones here with you :) (and yes, the aprons are wrinkled. I do not typically iron them...and since this is a real life blog I didn't iron them for photos either. It would be a good habit to get into though....)

This used to be my most worn apron. And then I lost it. But I found it today and it's going to be most worn again :D It's cute, has a little bit of lace, the ties are long enough to tie in the front and it has nice big pockets. Mama bought it at Hancock's a few years ago on the sale rack. It's a very cheery apron and makes it feel like sunny days even if it's raining. 



This is an apron I made a year or so ago. I had found some really cute cotton in the stash and having no other need for it, (and having a need for a second apron) I made one. And it's pleated, since I was really into pleating a while back. Lol. The color and print makes it my cozy apron, and if I know people are coming I'd wear this one since it isn't as dirty looking as the others.



A lot of my favorite things were passed down from my great grandmother and my great aunt. I can't remember which of them the two following aprons are from.  This one has 4 pockets, perfect for those random things you pick up off the floor as you're cleaning the house. Air soft BB's, game pieces and odd socks. Caroline likes to wear this apron.


The last apron I practically live in. Which is odd, since its such a bright yellow and I am typically more fond of duller hues. But this one is my go to. And the rick rack is so cute! Sometimes I wear it as a shirt apron, since it does not have a bib. 


Do you wear aprons a lot? Do you prefer half aprons or ones with bibs? 

P.S. I made that skirt a long time ago and found it in my closet and then remembered how much I liked it so I wore that outfit yesterday :) IT'S A CHOCOLATE PRINT SKIRT. And I love chocolate as much as I love aprons...if not more. And it has enormous pockets too.

    1. My hair is healthy, I take good care of it. Hair masks, careful brushing, etc. I don't wear it down that often because its so hot. But lots of hydration. :-) and I never blow dry it or use hot things like curling irons.
