Domistyle… It’s One of A Kind!

November 3, 2010 By Lena

I’d like to think I’m a domestic goddess of sorts. I am a proficient baker, love trying new and exciting cuisines, decorate my home with careful thought, and have been known to delegate the cleaning chores to my husband with precision and grace. But most important, I have absolute, undeniable proof: a “Gourmet Goddess” Domistyle apron which proudly (and stylishly) declares my worth.

Domistyle began in July 2003, when two stylish twenty-somethings, Jess and Ness, decided to host one of their fab soirées. The childhood friends wanted some cute aprons to don but only found frumpy, no-fun aprons instead. Boo.

That’s when the girls used their combined business and art backgrounds (not to mention trend-setting savvy) to create their line of über-chic aprons. Made to flatter, the fashion forward yet functional aprons are in high demand by fashionistas and foodies alike – the perfect conversation piece for hostesses everywhere!

I originally found the designs at the One of a Kind Art Show and essentially stalked the booth for a couple of years before my husband took matters into his own hands and bought one of the fabulous aprons. My collection now includes two Domistyle aprons and one coordinating pot mitt, making me a hot little dish (even when I’m covered in flour and chocolate).

Why are their aprons so special?

The aprons are carefully designed keeping in mind both classic and current trends in colour and design. Each image is hand drawn original artwork that is silk screened onto a fabulously draped polyester-cotton twill. The aprons are machine wash/dryable and don’t shrink, wrinkle or fade!

And, who can resist the flirty embroidered messages! Are you a “Gourmet Goddess” or would you “Cook for Shoes”? My faves – “Yummy Mummy” and “Caution: Hot Dish”.

Check out these gorgeous designs:

And, if you’ve got a budding little chef on your hands, don’t forget to pick up a super sweet apron from Domistyle’s kids line:

Kids aprons come with an embroidered message – and if you’d like, a customization can be added underneath!

The women’s aprons retail for $36; the kids line aprons are $25 each. Just in time for the holidays, do check out their Gift Sets, which are 25% less expensive than purchasing the individual items. Fab!

JUST FOR YOU!

For a limited time, when you shop online and purchase a women’s apron, you can get a second at 50% off! Simply enter code “HOLIDAY” at time of purchase. What a wonderful present for bridal showers, housewarmings or… Christmas, of course!

Click here to shop at Domistyle.

WIN IT!

Domistyle has graciously offered one Listen to Lena! reader the chance to win a Heartz Women’s Gift Set (value $50)! The set includes a “Will Cook for Shoes” apron tucked into one Pot Mitt and one Pair of Oven Mitts – packaged with a sparkly stribbon and gift tag!
