I want to start a trend
I liked the now passed trend wherein it was suggested that we wear pants under dresses and skirts. The problem with this short lived trend was that a person couldn't wear just any pants under the skirt - cargo pants, for example, would not be advisable, pockets would have to be flat, and the skirt, as you can imagine, would have to be an a-line. Maybe you cannot imagine, but I can.
Anyway -
I would like to adapt this trend.
I would like to alter this trend slightly.
I would like to suggest
That we wear aprons.
Over everything.
All the time.
And I mean to mention it to the ladies at Tie One On. I mean, what do they do with all those lovely aprons anyway?
Aprons would keep our clothing clean.
They could provide pockets for our cell phones.
And they have the added benefit of not adding additional fabric to the rear area. (which, for some of us, could have been a problem with the skirt/pant situation)
So.
Wear an apron today --
I got mine for $3.99 at my favorite store.

isn't that just like the pinafore thing that Rebecca of Sunnybrooks Farm had to wear?
yours is cute.
I use towels a lot, though.
I have no idea what that means.
You may want to check this option out.
I really should wear an apron at all times. Maybe with a bib, since I seem incapable of keeping my shirts clean. If I can spill it, I will.
But you go ahead, it looks cute on you!
word verification-flaar (you have flair, I have flaar)
You look quite slim.
Well, OK, suede.
With pockets and a mitt.

P.S. This would have been better and more alliterative in APRIL!
I go out for the day and you guys go crazy for the apron post...
pwaite - NO EXEMPTIONS FOR YOU. look at Joke! He's a big boy and HE wears and apron.
victoria - have now decided that it is INDEED a good idea to wear an apron with my swimsuit.
badger - I don't think anyone knows the implications of the towel usage are.
elizabeth - I have seen those pockets at Juju and have long contemplated making one.
vickeeee - YOU have a THING for my bosom.
joke - YOU probably have a bespoke apron as well.
lc - I think I have seen your great apron - I think you posted it, yes?
Joke - SUEDE?! In FLORIDA?! Rather warmish, isn't it? Or do you simply wear a speedo and a tan with it?
I wish I would've grabbed all my grandma's aprons. The florals were beautiful. And the memories! Why oh why did I go for the button box?!
And I wear an apron frequently. In fact I'm wearing one now as I read your post, so will now photograph myself to prove it. (50c from op shop).
Do you wear yours out of the house? Mine stops at the door.
- Suse (blogger is banning me again)
(Getting a bit excited about seeing a post of Joke in his manly apron. Craftapalooza and Angry Chicken have both posted pics of "maprons" in the past).
Plus, your kitchen? Awesome!
Who knew aprons would be the talk of the town?
I used to have a pretty one, but I think it went back to the op shop.
