Geeks may one day inherit the Earth, but they have already taken control of the kitchen as evidenced by these Star Wars aprons. These aprons were designed by Etsy crafter Haute Mess Threads and come in two styles: R2-D2 and Darth Vader.
These two aprons are both fashionable (for geeks) and functional as they include two pockets perfect for holding utensils and other goodies. Even if you aren't a whiz in the kitchen, Haute Mess Threads recommends wearing these Star Wars aprons as costumes to conventions or parties. Both aprons look awesome, but I would have to give the edge to the R2-D2 apron simply because I love the blue and white color scheme. Each apron is handmade and sells for $55 each.
