NSV Fitted apron now actually looks fitted (pics)

So a couple of years ago I asked my mom to make me the world's most amazing apron to match my amazing art skills. She spliced together a couple of different patterns to come up with a wonderful apron that used old denim jeans to make tons of pockets and little loops to put all sorts of brushes. I ended up thinking it was too nice to wear into the studio so I've been using it for cooking instead. However despite being made to be fitted and to look nicer than the average apron, it still didn't quite fit my figure as well as I had hoped.

Anyhow, jumping ahead, today I tried it on again (just goes to show how my husband does more of the cooking than me) and it actually looks fitted the way it was supposed to! I was so happy I just had to share it with all of you. I've taken pictures of it before, but never wanted to share them with people as I realized how bad I looked wearing it, but now I can finally be proud to share off my mom's wonderful invention.

Onto pics. Here is me wearing it when she first made it at my highest weight. Check out all those cool loops though.



And here is now wearing it. I insisted on the faux zipper pocket.



And here is a picture from the front to see how it is more fitted to highlight curves now that I'm getting them.



Hope you all have a wonderful weekend of NSVs!

Thanks, I just got dreads so they are sort of in the awkward messy stage.
