Winner- #54 E.L.F. A Family Blog
Every woman feels sexy, attractive and just all-together good about herself when she's got an apron tied around her waist as she bumbles around her kitchen. I just found beautiful vintage-inspired aprons from Carolyn's Kitchen and just had to share!
The owner and creator of Carolyn's Kitchen had this to say about her kitchen goodies- "I wanted to bring back the glamour, sexiness, and cuteness of a bygone innocent era. The gloves and fabrics are new and nicer - it's a new and improved version of the '40's."
And it is true, just check out these super cute gloves!
You CAN do the dishes, clean and cook and still look good. My husband has peered over my shoulder as I've browsed aprons. And HE likes them, too! So grab yourself a couple (don't forget matching gloves!) and enjoy being a woman!
And don't forget there is FREE SHIPPING so you can really stock up. Don't forget to grab some for any brides-to-be or Christmas gifts, too!
WIN IT:
One lucky reader is going to win a vintage-inspired Dorothy Apron in Yellow and Black (apron only), a $39.95 value!

I like this line because an apron is so multi-purpose, how can they beat it? "It will be a long time before someone invents something that will replace that ' old-time apron' that served so many purposes."
