A few years ago, I bought my version of a Shabbos robe. Instead of being a long, ornate, expensive dressing gown, however, it was a relatively inexpensive green velour dress I could just pull over my head after my shower and done. It wasn't something I'd entertain in, but it was comfortable and not unattractive, and served the purpose intended.
But, you know. I wear it every Friday night, pretty much, from October to April, and sometimes all day on Saturday, or I change into it after shul if I'm not going anywhere else. And all that washing has made it pretty threadbare.
I've been looking for a replacement, and I found it. Here.. Except I'm getting it in plum, not merlot. And this looks a lot more dresslike, so I could actually wear this when we have guests without feeling like I'm entertaining in my bathrobe. It's also half the price of the least expsensive Shabbos robes, and it's perfectly modest.
Win.
