Cooking is always something fun. I’m the type of person that loves “tinkering” with recipes I find or coming up with my own stuff!
Now those of you that have caught on…I love original styles and I love Pin Up Styles! Now you’re probably thinking where am I going with this (Alright Jenna-Cooking then Style? WHAT) But there’s an awesome company I wanted to share with you that is for Cooking AND style!
Carolyn’s Kitchen Online offers vintage-inspired aprons and dish gloves in a wide and beautiful array of styles. Carolyn West has created this incredible line with designs that are perfect for everyone! I love all of the designs and could find something for each of my friends easily! From her website-
Inspired by a gorgeous apron and glove set from Paris, Carolyn began by discovering 1940’s patterns and bringing them to life with her modern interpretive designs. “I wanted to bring back the glamour,sexiness, and cuteness of a bygone innocent era. The gloves and fabrics are new and nicer – it’s a new and improved version of the ’40’s.”
Carolyn’s designs have been featured in a variety of magazines and celebrity fans include such names as Bo Derek, Laila Ali, and Cheryl Burke!
Carolyn has been awesome enough to sponsor a giveaway for you readers here at For the Love of Baby! One lucky winner will win the Orange Sweetheart Apron and Matching Sweetheart Dish gloves!

Hey… sooooo confused. Why does your post say August 15th? Today is the 4th… I’m lost 🙁
It’s a way of keeping the post up top so readers can find the giveaways easier!
I love all of her aprons, but especially the Dorothy. I do wish, however, that she had some retro styles that were a little less frilly!

Thanks again!
The Dorothy Apron in Orange is great. When you look at orange you are suppose to get hungry (the science of color on our lives), so if I even had a bad day of cooking experiments, my family would still be hungry enough to eat a not so great trial of a new recipe. I also think the Americana Apron, Garden Party Apron and Lollipop Aprons are real fun. Thanks for the great giveaway. Good Luck to all.
I love the Dorothy aprons!
I really love the new cupcake apron. Very cute and fun.
I just love these aprons! But I think my favorite is the Marilyn Apron. How cute and sexy at the same time. Thanks for a great giveaway!
Wow, thanks for the amazing giveaway! These are the cutest aprons I have ever seen! It’s hard to choose because they are all great and unique! I love the Dorothy Apron Red because it goes perfect with my decor in my kitchen.
