I don't know why but I love shows, movies, books, etc. where the girls wear dresses with aprons and Mary Janes shoes. I low-key wish I could wear that in my day-to-day...
I can wear a dress that's short enough to not get in my way but not so short that I'm uncomfortable, y'know? It's a style that never seems to die.
(Plus aprons make it so that I can wear a pretty dress without worrying about getting stains on them. And there are some really pretty apron patterns out there.)
