No, I do not. Mostly because temperature wise they are not needed in California. Although, when our weather chills I do from time to time wish for a short one with either a zipper or buttons. not wrapped with the belt. I am to busty for that. 

 

If I ever see one that meets all of my requirements I will probably purchase.

I have several robes that I bought when i lived in WA, though now that I live in AZ, I don't wear often.  I only wear a robe when i have to go outside & am in my pjs.

 

I have 3 long button-front chenille robes that are probably close to 30 years from QVC back when Stan Herman offered petites.  I liked the design so well, that I bought it in all the colors available.  I prefer a button front robe.

I own several robes for cold weather.  I have both wrap and zip robes and use them most mornings and late evenings.  Most of mine are fairly old and cotton or chenille and all are long sleeves.  Love to sit in my robe and watch tv while the dogs curl up under and on the throws.

If my dog doesn't like you, neither do I.

I used to have some robes but got rid of them because I never used them.

No, not really.

 

Back when I lived in a colder climate (WNY) I had several and wore them all sooner or later.  Never understood why you would need a hood on your robe unless your ceiling leaked.

 

Now, in SoCal, I have three but rarely wear them more than once or twice a year.  No need anymore.

Yes.  I have a terry one the I put on after showering, one zip front long one I travel with to DD when the kids wake me up as I wear gowns to sleep in, can't stand pj's.  Also one for summer to travel with.

Thank You for the heads-up on Pavilia robes: I just purchased two WOMEN'S SHERPA HOUSECOAT ZIPPER ROBEs for this winter. The colors are great and the pockets look substantial (I can really stuff some doggo treats in them lol).

 

Thanks!

I wear a robe basically every day!  My house is usually chilly -- whether it be in the summer with the air conditioning, or in the fall and winter because of the cooler or cold temps.  I have several robes and could not be without them!!

I'm with you!  I gave up on wrap robes eons ago.  And button ones are a pain.  I tried zipper ones but don't like them either.  If I can't find a snap on, then I won't purchase.  And --- yes --- they definitely are hard to fine!  If you're not overly concerned with having a really fancy one, look in the Blair catalog.  They have a very basic, long, snap front robe which comes in a lot of basic colors and very reasonably priced.  They are very warm, too.  I have 3 of them!
