i need to start this post with one word:
$60.
yup, you heard me.
$60 for THE BEST. ROBE. EVER.
some women are obsessed with shoes. i'm obsessed with robes. especially hotel robes. and i've been trying to find that perfect hotel robe ever since my last great hotel heist a few years ago (hotel location undisclosed for obvious reasons). it wasn't too thick, but nice and lovely and light lined with a smooth, thin terry that totally did the trick to get my perfect dry, in it's post shower snuggle.
don't get me wrong, it wasn't one of those frou-frou thin-wannabe-cover-ups. no, no, it had all the oversize yumminess of one of those fat oversize monstrosities that do nothing for those extra 8 5 pounds. even in the small size, it was plenty over size and the saddest part it, it was so thrashed, i had to trash it for fear my husband might…well…leave me. it was that used and abused.
imagine my sheer joy when i discovered, upon some serious online research THE ROBE!!!!! i remember i had a brilliant robe from Turkey once, so that's where i started my search – this led me to:
www.thirstytowels.com amazing turkish EVERYTHING towel and robe for everyone in the fam.
and then, when i saw it was on sale for $60 – including monogramming!! – i lost my shit.
i immediately ordered two – one in white with my name in gold script for a little bling and one in the gorgeous bamboo green with dark green letters that say, uh, "Magic Mommy" (i know, i know…it's my 6 year olds nickname for me).
i have been literally living in them. rotating night and day. in fact, i think i need one in the grey silvery color.
this is a world class gift, (dunno how long that sale is gonna last) and if you need a ridiculously perfect mama's day or birthday gift for someone, stock up.
in fact, this is the kinda thinkg where you buy 5 and just dole them out on birthdays (then again, they are half off now, obviously when they go back to normal process you might not rack up 5 at a time.
i feel so head over heels in love with this entire website of robes, i sent it around to all my friends. and now, of course, i'm psyched to share it with you.
all straight from Turkey.
