Haute Hostess Aprons Glam It Up Collection in Jacqueline

In case you hadn’t noticed, we’ve hit an economic slump. So while we may be cutting back on services or items that are actually essential, like health insurance, air conditioning, or eating foods higher on the food chain than legumes, some fashion addictions are hard to kick. How can one justify spending half a month of rent on shoes, especially after finding out that rent prices have gone up for the next year?

While I enjoy going out to lavish dinners and swilling crazy cocktails that are mostly sugar water, I realize it’s time for a much more realistic means of getting my sustenance. I set out to find a way to glam up the dreaded "dinner in tonight," and discovered some scrumptious cooking apparel to entice even those capable only of making toast or spaghetti. These little treats are both easy on the eyes and low in carbs.

For those subsisting on a Ramen and pilfered cracker-from-the-cafeteria diet, invest in a standard half apron to throw on over your LBD (hey, you can still go out afterwards!) Opt for brighter, bolder colors, like orange or yellow, for a fun, weekday supper. But for a more glamorous aesthetic, try a ruby red hue with pearls and matching lipstick. You can one-up Bree Van de Camp’s apple pie any day! Just make sure to grab one in the freezer section when you purchase your apron at super discount places like Wal-Mart or Kmart.

If you're still longing for those sumptuous dinners of economies past, try a more high-end design. Nashville’s own Elizabeth Scokin makes two sassy collections of these aprons, in both the half style that ties around the waist and the full that goes around the neck. Inspired by the classic cocktail dress, Ms. Scokin created the Give Me Sugar and Glam It Up collections of her Haute Hostess Aprons line to add style to any kitchen encounter. They’re a little more expensive, but they’re currently having a 50% off promotion for Mother’s Day. Check them out at elizabethscokinproductions.com/products/index.asp. Throw in the frozen dinner, and the oven won’t be the only hot thing in the room.

So now you can enjoy the same fanfare in getting ready for a domestic night in as you did for a wild night out. Use that extra money you saved to buy those shoes. You’ll need them to wear with your new apron.

Haute Hostess Aprons have brought sexy back to entertaining at home...recently we received a letter from a group of friends who have all married within the last year. The ladies were having their first fab couples dinner party together and using all their best china, silver, crystal, etc...the new brides said when they walked out together in their Haute Hostess Aprons( given to them at their bridal showers)to serve cocktails and appetizers to their husbands ...wow! wow! wow!...their husbands were speechless! The ladies said they felt like they were in a sexy girl rock band and literally were prancing to the music in their Haute Hostess Aprons and Jimmy Choo's while serving ~ The husbands then pumped up the volume, ASKED to serve the dinner, AND washed all the dishes afterwards...now that is one potent frock!!! Haute Hostess Aprons have become the secret weapon of the kitchen!

Shower Diva Approved Haute Hostess Aprons!

Haute Hostess Aprons Bridal Collection
Divas, WOW! This hostess apron will turn the Bride-to-Be into a glamour puss with the simple tie of a sash. Just try it on and it will become immediately apparent that designer and southern socialite Elizabeth Scokin knows a thing or two about making a woman look hot, hot, hot. (Or is that haute, haute, haute?) Honestly, one of our staff members tied it on when she was wearing jeans and a t-shirt and suddenly she looked like a flirty, fabulous party girl. We suspect the secret lies in carefully constructed gathers that cause the skirt’s tulle netting to pop up in a fashion reminiscent of Dior’s classic "New Look."

The skirt is topped by a wide silky ribbon sash that ties in front. A faceted rhinestone ball dangles from each sash tip where it bounces and winks with every step. Rows of metallic rickrack trim finish the look.

No wonder fashion-forward celebs like Tory Burch and Beyonce (and Scarlet, and Naomi, and...) love Haute Hostess® Aprons. Gift a Bride-to-Be or Bachelorette with this apron - it’s the easiest way we know to turn any shower into a Hollywood-style soiree. After the wedding, your favorite Bride-to-Be can use it whenever she's entertaining. It would be lovely at a dinner party and lovelier worn alone to entertain the groom.

For the Bride-to-Be or Bachelorette, choose either the Courtney or Sarah versions. Then, if you want to dress up the rest of the Bridal party, choose a colorful version that will match or complement the wedding colors. Order online at HauteHostessAprons.com. They will arrive beautifully packaged in black and pink tissue with a Haute Hostess® Aprons gift bag included. $100

Diva Tip. Tie Give Me Sugar aprons around the chair backs at your Bridal Shower or Bachelorette Party to dress up the room. During the festivities, you can give them as prizes or simply gift the wedding party with them at the end of the party.
