I thought this was a pretty cool find, especially considering that I am sure there are people out there that think that aprons are old fashioned and just plan out of style! Susan and Veronica are about to change that with their aprons gear specially for all the fashionistas in the world today.
Check out this YouTube video:
About Susan and Veronica Fashionista Aprons
From the creators:
“We have created a line of contemporary aprons that represent our lifestyle and our philosophy that style begins at home. We obsess over the latest fashions, hottest music, dinner parties, spin and yoga classes, living green, humanitarian causes, careers, blogs and the well-deserved day at the spa. We are products of a generation of female empowerment, self-confidence and independence. We developed a love of cooking and baking not because we had to have dinner ready or because we were expected to, but because we simply enjoyed it.
While we respect the creativity of years gone by, our aprons are not meant to bring you back to an earlier time, but are instead designed with a modern stylistic approach that represents today’s woman and her state of mind. Our aprons will make you feel style savvy, flirty, playful or edgy while whipping up your signature meals.”

– April 22, 2010 marks the 40th anniversary of Earth Day, a day designed to inspire awareness and appreciation for the earth’s environment. Meet Me At The Corner (MeetMeAtTheCorner.org), a kids’ virtual field trip Web site, is celebrating with a pod cast about hiking and bird watching in Colorado Springs’ Aiken Canyon Preserve. The episode also includes a variety of activities and interviews intended to promote environmental interest among kids all year long. MeetMeAtTheCorner.org combines the content that educators and parents trust with the delivery method that today’s kids embrace.
Led by ten year-old reporter Benjy, the on-line video “field trip” introduces children to the 100+ species that inhabit the preserve, its unique ecosystem, and the history of ornithologist Charles Aiken. Rounding out the episode is an interview with Phil Kendal, the past chairman of the Nature Conservancy in Colorado, who shares how kids can get involved in hiking.
To help localize the content, MeetMeAtTheCorner.org’s “Learning Corner” provides parents and teachers a variety of episode-specific resources, activities and guided questions that meet national- and state-based educational standards.
Meet Me At The Corner also suggests the following five ways kids can actively participate in Earth Day…on April 22 and all year long:
1. Use less water. Take showers instead of baths and turn off the tap when brushing your teeth.
2. No-pollute commute. Walk or bike to school to reduce air pollution and save on fuel costs.
3. Save electricity. Turn off all lights and appliances when not in use.
4. Reduce, reuse, recycle. Buy/eat fresh snacks that use less packaging. Take a reusable bag on shopping trips.
5. E-Cycle. Keep old computers and electronics out of the landfill by taking them to a recycling center.
