Lately I’ve been obsessed with aprons. As a wardrobe stylist, I like being able to keep my clothes clean and have pockets for my tools. Combine an apron with underlayering and you have the ideal fashion/function relationship. Here’s a variety of aprons (locally made, for the most part) that will get you through a messy day in style.
Check out the image slideshow above for all the looks and their descriptions.
