brocantehome: Glamour In An Apron

  • Lynda · 1 year ago
    hey, is that lurex yarn in the crochet pinny?? Or added sequins!

    Can I just mention that I discovered that 8% of people buying a retro Housekeeping calendar decide to buy a Mamma Mia DVD instead?? (i have too much time on my hands today... no, not really, I'm procrastinating. back to work!)

    Closer inspection suggests it is lurex yarn Linda... and as for the correlation between retro housekeeping calender and mamma mia... well you've got me flummoxed... except that both make me feel smiley?x

    I love a pinny! my favourites are the ones with a bib because I am so messy that I need to cover as much as possible!

    I always feel glamorous in an apron. Even if I'm wearing it over jeans. It helps that my son has the idea hard-wired in his brain that apron=dress=pretty girl. So as soon as I put on an apron I get an immediate, "Mommy, you look beautiful!"

    ok, first... is that first still Terry jones in Monty Python's A Meaning of Life? If not it is my sincere hope that is some other dude. Yikes.

    Second, sure these ladies look great- and they are all marvelously skinny, and it is my earnest contention that when you are skinny you can wear anything, quite literally sack cloth, and look gorgeous.

    jealous? me? no...

    Aprons are sexy. Even if I just pretend to look as hot as these women in an apron, I feel sexier when I put one on. I love how these women embraced their power of womanhood.

    "sack of potatoes and bosoms" is usually how I feel when I see my self in one. So I just ignore the mirrors and wear them anyway. I have found myself planning my Thanksgiving day wardrobe around what apron I will be wearing...

    I would think before taking a "staged" photo, one would put a full roll of paper towels on in place of the empty cardboard roll... or is that just me?
    I have one lonely apron, sent by a friend, but it is oh so lovely, and I've been too scared of messing it up to actually use it!
    I really need some everyday usable ones...
