Do You Own A Robe

Jordan2 — Sun, 30 Oct 2022 00:36:51 GMT

I saw the Berkshire robe presented on the air, while I thought it was nice, I wondered if anyone uses them anymore? I own a robe but never use it. I'm either dressed or in my pjs. When I shower I bring my clothes in with me and get dressed, I have no use for a robe.

I have two robes and only really use them if I feel sick which is very rare.

I put on my robe every morning when I let the dogs out, feed them and eat breakfast. It's very cold in the house the first hour. Also sometimes put it on in the evenings.

I must say though, I despise the wrap robes like the Berkshire one they were showing. They don't stay closed and look terrible on any busty person. Give me a zipper.

I have a robe, but like you, rarely wear it. The one time I did...and was glad I had it...was when I was in the hospital when the nurse would get me up to walk the corridor.

I love robes. I just bought a new summer (thinner) robe. I have 4 winter robes, including a barefoot dreams one, that is not my favorite.

I even have a zip up one - zipper goes from your knees up to top. Very granny - ish and I love it.

I live in Chicago so we spend 6 months cold.

I love robes. Always had many. I do not buy wrap robes. I find them annoying. I buy snap or button closure robes, which are becoming hard to find.

I have one to wear during the summer and one to wear during the fall/winter/spring. I wear it every morning after my shower and keep it on until after doing hair and makeup. Mornings have finally gotten chilly.

I have so many robes! All kinds. I practically live in them. I just bought two more full-length winter robes and I'm in heaven with them. Brand is Pavilia and if you are familiar with the Berkshire Fluffie blankets and throws, that's what the Pavilia robes are made of or something very similar to it. Whatever it is, it is so warm and cozy! Perfect for me in my cool house.

The Berkshire robes look really cozy, but I haven't used a robe in decades. I put on my PJ's after a shower and if I want to snuggle up on the couch, I use one of my Berkshire throws.

My sleep clothes are now PJ/ lounge sets, not the type worn years ago that were more revealing, or definitely for bed wear that you couldn't answer the doorbell wearing. So back then I would cover up in a robe to be presentable until tucking into bed. But things have changed. Sign of the times...

I have many robes and wear one everyday, first thing I put on when I get up and they are all so pretty, I wear them until I decide what to wear for the day depending on what I will be doing or where I will be going. First thing I do in the evening is get undressed and put on my comfy robe.

I have fleece ones for winter and others for spring and summer depending on the season is the robe weight I choose.

I do not like wrap robes, must have a zipper. I do have some robes with snaps but I prefer the zipper ones. I now have my winter warm ones out and leave a few in between weights out for days not so chilly.

I now have 8 really warm ones out and 5 for in between days. My warm weather ones are stored away til late spring.

No robes for me. I have never been a robe wearer.

Since I moved and the weather's been chilly, I wear a wrap robe over my clothes part of the day.

I've always had summer robes & winter robes.

When I used to work I'd come home, get out of my work clothes, & put on a robe until I got ready for bed.

I also like robes when I have overnight family or friends.

i generally wear sleeveless pajamas and loungewear all year long, so i need a robe during the cooler weather. sometimes i put a robe on directly after toweling off after a shower. i also like to wear a robe when i am getting ready to go out. i dont have to worry about getting makeup on it or spilling anything on it.

i have one barefoot dreams robe which is super warm and very comfortable. it is like wearing your favorite blanket. i also buy soma cool nights robes which are a rayon spandex blend and come in cute patterns, plus i have a basic black with lace.

i only like wrap robes......no zippers, no buttons, no snaps.

I have robes, but I do not wear them. I bought them recently in case I need them. I stopped wearing robes years ago. Instead I wear shirts and pajama bottoms that I call "sleepy clothes." When I go to bed I put on actual pajamas or a gown. I spend the day in a set of sleepy clothes if I am overwhelmed by my fatigue.

I love my robe! I mostly wear it after I get out of the shower but also wear in on cool mornings while waking up. One of my daughters is a robe wearer also.

I wear robes. I shower in the morning, so I put a robe on after that. I don't want my wet hair getting whatever shirt I'll be wearing for the day wet, so I'll wear the robe until my hair dries somewhat. I'll also put it on sometimes when I'm a bit chilly in the evening. It's a silky wrap-type which I don't really care for, but I've had it for literally years.

I recently bought a more substantial waffle robe for winter wear, wrap type too since it seems to be what I can find. Both are short.

I have robes, all but one are the wrap kind that I prefer. The alien one is dark green velvet that zips. I wear it for lounging.

I wear them after a shower or bath. I don't wear pj's to bed.

Yes, I have a Stan Herman robe. I've had it several years. It is a zip up the front and keeps me warm. It is wearing well and still looks good. We keep the heat turned down at night so I often put it on first thing in the morning till we turn the heat up.

I do not own a robe. I just put on a zip up sweatshirt if I need something warmer over my pajamas.

I have a robe, which is tie front. I used to wear robes all the time. Since I retired, though, I wear pajamas and use a throw if I am cold.
