I’m going to tell you a secret about myself: I love robes.
Seriously- I own four. I have a terry one for post shower. I have a fleecy one for when it’s cold. I have a jersey one for when it’s medium weather out. And I have a pink floral silk one that I actually refer to as a dressing gown because my real secret is that I want to be Nora Charles in the Thin Man movies.
Robes are one my greatest sources of joy.
So one day my husband and I were getting ready to go out. It was chilly, but I was going to wear a sleeveless dress, and I didn’t feel like putting on the blazer that I planned on wearing, so I threw on my fluffy robe.
I was so comfy.
So I texted my BFF’s and asked:
“What do you think about a robe as a fashion statement? Do you think I can go out like that?”
And we all LOLed…
Another not so secret secret about me is that I have a Stitch Fix subscription because I hate shopping for clothes.
A few weeks after my query about robes as day/evening wear, I received my fix. One of the five items was a short grey jersey blazer with a shawl collar…
Huzzah
They actually sent me what really is a robe that I can wear outside the house…
I was thrilled…
But I must admit… I did wonder if Alexa had spoken to the computer over at Stitch Fix…
