Alejandra Tapia x H&B Essential Esiliina

I wear it for both cooking and potting plants, and the cross-back strap keeps it from slipping off my shoulders even when I’m reaching for high shelves. The fabric is sturdy but breathes well, so I don’t overheat at the stove. The pockets sit at just the right height for my phone and a towel.

The artist’s touch really shows in the design — it’s playful but still looks polished enough for hosting. I’ve worn it for three straight cooking sessions and it hasn’t lost its shape or picked up any stubborn stains.

Finally, an apron that actually fits well—I’m 5’2” and the adjustable neck strap lets me cinch it perfectly without dragging on the floor. The cross-back design also keeps it from slipping off my shoulders while I’m reaching for ingredients.
